Where am I going?
So, here I am on WA and exciting as it is I find that I don't know where to go. I'm stuck for words for my content. Well not so much the wording but after researching I find it difficult putting content into my own words. After all, no-one wants to be accused of plagiarism. I know I need to persevere and eventually it'll all come together.
I'm working my way slowly through the training. It took almost 2 weeks for me to write my first article and got it published. Whoohoo. I did it. Then I went back to the training only to find that I had to write a second article. Oh no. So soon after publishing the first one.
I have a lot going on in my personal life. It feels like a lot to me. I'm not getting any younger and I need to find work. Will anyone want me? Am I too old? Will I be judged on how I got to be unemployed? So many questions.
But.....I'm writing this blog because we are a community so we should get it out there. We all have our own reasons for being here. My reason is that I want to achieve something for myself and prove to myself that I can do this. We can all do this.

It’s does get easier specially with the training you will be writing articles in an hour great job
When we first start it’s difficult but it does become easier.
Keep going at your own pace, you will get there.
We have all felt overwhelmed at times. Just keep moving forward and it will come together!
I'm one of those perfectionists that sometimes slows myself in the process. In addition to using Grammarly to check my wording, I also lean a little on Copyscape when I think I might be infringing. My writing is always original, but sometimes it just comes together like someone has done before. I find this especially true when I'm writing about a specific item, like one of the plants on my site.
But again, don't worry about the speed you are traveling. Just keep moving forward. For most of us, the speed increases over time as we learn the process.
Wishing you all the best!

Thank you Diane. I appreciate your comments. I've never heard of Copyscape and I shall certainly look to using this.

You are welcome.
There are other plagiarism checkers but CS is the one that most writers I know depend on.
