Did you know that many Traval writers didn’t even have an idea that one day they would be writers! Many would be so involved with their career that they would soon realize that they were living the Dream, much like me! You can say I woke up one day and realized I had been a lot of places and saw a lot of people through my Musical Career! Only I wished I would have been wiser through my Travels and invested more time and money! Who has Time for more Time? I can’t even count the # of times that I saw the perfect sunset or the perfect sunrise! If only I would have had a camera! For awhile I had a nice Pentex and then sold it to fund a move to Nashville Tn. Maybe one day I will get another nice one. Is it I really odd the more I think of! For many years I always had the tools to be a web publisher and never had the desire. I always had a Laptop and one day I bought a cheap $70 digital camera and started taking pictures, and then I soon started writing. I have been on a writing kick for years now and I am starting to enjoy the process.
I have been playing on the net for years and never really realized the potential of the virtual world! Humm I could be a Travel Writer! I already Travel, i just need to write! I started off selling things on EBay and discovered that there was too much competition to make a dollar! Even buying thing at wholesale and trying to flip them, someone out there was always selling cheaper! So like most people I gave up and didn’t try to sell anymore on EBay! I did use the drop-shipping method and it was pretty easy but the shipping was killing me with all the high gas prices and that was few years ago. Imagine how high they are now!
So about a year ago I decided to build a few web sites and put ad sense on them and waited! Well guess what? I sat and sat and waited longer. For months I waited for people to come and they never came. So I started reading and researching (all the info is on the net by the way!) After awhile I gave up on my sites and never really tried to develop them any more. Well a few months passed and I started to research again!
I told myself “You can do this!” Well with my brother’s help and a lot of reading I finally figured out how the net works. Let me tell you, it is whole lot of work! Pretty much every free minute everyday I work and tweak and tweak some more! And guess what? I made my first 12 cents on Adsense the other day!
So I guess you ask yourself, what does my net story have to do with Writing? Well that is the secret to the net! Write, write, and write some more, you have to be a content machine! I am sure you have heard the term Blog to the Bank! Well years ago people figured that you could blog and make money. There are many ways to publish your thought and they all will work in different ways for your purpose. Most of the time I write when I have down time and feel like blowing off some pressure. You just have to find you niche market and go toward it! I know a few people who copy other people articles and republish them! Well guess what? You are waisting your time. The search ingines are looking for unique content and if your article is out they will just rank you lower and lower and lower. You get it! If you do a little research you will find that being a writer can pay off and be profitable as well. Don’t expect to make alot at first, cause it takes a lot of time to build up your empire.
So next time you are on that Smoky mountain vacation or you are working in Cali, start writing and saving your thought! One day you will have written a whole library of your life and how you saw it! You never know , you may a be legend one day for publishing the way you see. Writing is one of those things you can do anywhere at any time, as long as you have something to write about. So next time you get bored start writing and if you are lucky you may never stop! You may make a great life out Travel Writing and Net Pushlishing. Well until next time…happy holidays!…………………………………….
