Christian Writing: Finding Income From Articles
Christian Writing: Finding Income From Articles
By Bishop James I Feel God Brown
The lifestyles of a writer and a painter are closely
intertwined. The typical artist paints his or her best
work and hopes someone will buy it before they go to
heaven. Many writers have historically undergone the
same type of fate. However, technology has started to
change how writers can earn while they work.
Since I have several websites and mail lists dedicated
to the craft of writing for Christian writers, It seems
that the number one question that I am asked is “How
can I make money while I am waiting for a book deal”?
Because of the shear volume of online and offline
publications there are untold opportunities that most
writers can capitalize on.
One of my favorite income streams for Christian writers
is writing articles and giving them away. No, don’t try
to sell everything, give it away! Plant your writing
seeds for a bountiful future crop.
There is great opportunity associated with syndicating
no-cost articles. When you circulate articles this way
you are spreading the gospel, meeting the needs of
fellow believers, and growing a audience eager for your
resources and opinions.
Because of Internet web sites, email newsletters, and
print on demand publishing, the demand for quality, 250
- 500 word, Christian copy-writing has never been
greater. The fact is that most article directories have
few articles directed to the Christian community. You
can help fill that need!
But, “How do I make money giving away the store?”, you
may be asking. Here again the secret is by providing
solutions to the issues impacting people’s lives. At
the bottom of your article you can place links to
products others are selling, that address a solution to
the problem, and receive a commission. You could also
create and sell a PDF e-book that teaches the
solutions.
Or, you could just start a mail list of those who like
your material and offer products each week. Whichever
method you choose, three benefits will be a blessing.
1) You are getting great name exposure. 2) You are
perfecting your craft through practice. 3) You are
getting consistent feedback about what people like and
don’t like about your writing. 4) You are paying your
bills while you wait to get paid.
Be Blessed
In Him, JMb <><
