What Not to Do

A note to other aspiring eHow writers out there: don't miss the "Suggested Articles" postings. You can come up with how-to articles on your own, but the eHow editors come up with topics they need articles on, and post 50-100 a week. I try to snap these up because they get more views and earn you more "points." I'm not really sure how points work, but the more I get the more money I seem to make, so I'll play along.

I can't figure out if they submit a new batch on Mondays or Tuesdays, but I missed it this week and wrote a grand total of two Suggested Articles. I'm pretty disappointed because after the 27 article marathon last week, my earnings have been steadily increasing. Now I guess I have to rely on my own brain for article ideas. I should probably invest in some sort of planner.

I did submit one more article to Associated Content, though, a post from my other blog. And I got my first accepted article from the first batch I submitted. Woo, $3.22.
