Make Money Writing Personal Stories

 


Writing

The Strength to Carry On will pay for personal stories. According to their TOS, they love personal stories and will pay $1.50 per 1,000 page views. If you’re dying to get something off of your chest and have a personal story to tell, tell it here and get paid for your writing.

The personal stories is what originally caught my attention, since I have a lot of stories built up and no one to tell them to. I started writing for The Strength to Carry On and I  love some of the personal stories on here. I’m still having trouble believing that I am getting paid to tell my personal stories among other things.

Why share personal stories:

Personal stories are often left bottled up and can eventually cause us to become overwhelmed with them. When we tell people our personal stories, it helps because we get to know that others out there that have been through the same things as us, that we are not alone.

The most difficult part of telling a personal story

I had trouble telling my personal story on The Strength to Carry On, mainly because I felt that people were going to judge me, and that they were going to laugh at me, or criticize what I had to say. To my surprise, everyone that commented had told me that they wish that they had the strength that I had to relay my story and message. The people at The Strength to Carry On, do not judge you and that’s just another reason that I love to write for them.

Should you get paid to tell your personal story?

I do believe that we should. If our personal story is going to help someone and this is the only good that is coming out of it, then why shouldn’t we get paid? There are a lot of people out here that constantly tell us that we are only seeking attention with our personal stories, but this isn’t the case at all, we aren’t seeking attention, we are seeking comfort and help. Getting paid for our personal story is a good thing in my opinion.

The drawbacks of telling a personal story

I do have to say that there are a few drawbacks from telling a personal story. A person might get criticized by those across the internet. It is actually better to go under another name if you are afraid of this happening.

If you have a personal story, go ahead and share it with us. I know I would love to hear about it and know that I’m not alone.

The Difference Between Writing a Blog Post and an Article

 I recently got asked if I would allow an individual to  write an article  for my blog. I assume that what they meant was, could they write a blog post. I also assume that this individual did not know the difference between a blog post and an article. Conversational Language of a Blog Post Conversational language on a blog post is more like you are talking to a close friend. It is like you are having a conversation with an individual that you have known for years. Blog post do not have to be formal at all. Blog post are supposed to invite the readers in and create conversation. Blog post also tend to have the writer’s opinion more than an article does. This does not mean that a blog post is not based on facts. Blog post are editorial pieces at best. Conversational Language of an Article Articles are meant to be informative, leaving false information completely out, and the opinion of the writer at a minimal. Articles are normally formal and more objective. Most articles d...

Aids has become one of the most widely known STD's in the world. Making yourself aware of Aids will help you to better understand ways that you can take prevention measures to refrain from transmitting it or passing it onto someone else.  HIV is the virus that causes Aids.

Earning with Bubblews

I have heard a lot of bad things about  Bubblews . I use to  love to write  for them and I still do every now and again. One review that I had seen was from a dear friend who had gotten kicked off of their site for unknown reasons, another review was from another friend who said that the pay system was really messed up but she still got paid, it just took longer than they state. Well, I have been writing for them for a while now. I don’t write there frequently though. You are allowed to post ten articles or post a day. I don’t take full advantage of this though; I am lucky if I post one a week. Anyways, this is my current pay scale that I have. I need to reach $50 before I can withdraw this into my PayPal account and right now I am at $46. I will keep you updated on my progress with them. Please let me know how your experience has been so far.
