This Writing Technique is Rocking My World!
I left a comment that I was hoping to get more tips on actually writing articles and how to do it well and quickly in the training, that writing has always been where I stumble... and some great community members pointed me to some other resources.
I did some reading and then came across this absolute gem of a technique:

Mind. Blown.
I sat down this morning and cranked out a 1200 word article in 15 minutes.
15 minutes, friends. This would normally have taken me over an hour, maybe two. Maybe days as I would get discouraged, walk away, come back, waste time... you know the drill It's the reason why I have tine to even write a blog post about it. I closed my eyes and started typing. I even knew when I was making mistakes or my sentences didn't flow together well -- I just kept going. And kept going.
Kyle talks a lot about really writing everything that needs to be said in an article so that your visitors don't click off to another site looking for more information -- and this process makes it SO much easier to do that. Editing as you go makes writing very tiring, for me at least, and I found that I would get drained before I could write all that I wanted to write. My perfectionism just got in the way, over and over.
This has been THE major stumbling block for me in my internet marketing journey. I know, and I've known all along, that great content is the way to success, but it has always been SO hard for me to get that content cranked out. I got so discouraged about this and looked on in wonder at people who could build websites and just pour out articles again and again.
This is a HUGE turning point for me. Huge.
I know a lot of people use voice dictation software but many times I work at night while my family is sleeping, or in the early mornings, or even at Starbucks where I don't want to be speaking out loud. So this really, really works for me.
Try it. It may seem goofy and you might have to correct typing mistakes, but IT WORKS.
Thank you, Kyle, As far as I'm concerned, this alone was worth the price of my first month of Wealthy Affiliate!

I was very glad to find and ready your article on blank writing. As this has been a stumbling block for me. It may also have been the same for others. Thanks for the putting it up.
Hi Ray! It's really working for me, and I hope it does for you, too. You still have to make yourself sit down at the keyboard, but once you get going, it really works. I just think about having a conversation with a friend. I wrote another article this morning, I've now written more in a week than I ever have! Best wishes to you!
Excellent --- i'm gonna give it a blast. This weekend I decided that I was going to "finally" sit down and write my butt off. Perfect timing as far as your blog is concerend so thanks for sharing. I'm gonna try it. :-)
Hi there!! Let me know how it goes - I'm really interested. The closing my eyes and imagining a conversation with a friend have really, really changed this whole game for me. I can finally write more content, AND not have it be stuffy and formal sounding. Good luck!
Following people with experience makes it so much easier. At least for me. Kyle and Carson, Jay, Craig, and lots of others have made life so much better for me. This is a great place to be.

Yes, Willow Kim, Kyle has some really good pointers. Always put his name up in the looking for box and can often find the answer to a stumbling block in most everything, or just a keyword and he will likely be listed. Happy writing!! ^_~2144/6/23
