Writing for Money and Enjoyment
69Money is Okay, Enjoyment is Necessary!
Research writing brings writers money. Some people make more money than I can imagine doing research and writing. Can you think of some of the topics that could be researched and written? How about Computers and Technology?
Research writing must be done correctly. These articles must look very nice and neat. Spelling correctly is a must. Can you imagine writing on a medical topic, and not spelling a word correctly. The consequences could be drastic, to say the least.
Yes, research articles are necessary, and profitable. These are just the type of writing for a vast number of writers.
Writing for enjoyment is a must for other writers. I keep mentioning Samuel Clemens, also known as Mark Twain, in some of my writing. If you have not read anything by Mark Twain, I recommend you do this.
You don't have to read a whole book by Mark Twain (Samuel Clemens). I do think you would want to do just that, though. He used the English language in his own ways. I'm sure he must have listened to numbers of people in life to acquire his 'vocabulary'.
To me, Samuel Clemens most likely thoroughly enjoyed his writing. He used his imagination, combined with real-life experiences, and let his writing flow.
Can you imagine writing so well that people one hundred years or more from now would still be enjoying the way you write? Can you imagine doing this in your own way, your own style of writing, and love writing?
Research writing does have it's place. There are numerous sites on the internet wanting research writers. There are writers that only want to write this way. There are writers only wanting to write magazine-style articles, and they should.
Enjoying writing can be a lot of different methods. One writers way is okay, and another writers method is also okay. We can't all write the same article day after day. That would be pointless.
Reading some of the old Literature across time will help you find methods of writing. Reading articles on the internet will help you see newer ways.
Hopefully, we will all find our ways of writing we enjoy, and also make money. More than making money writing, we can enjoy what we are doing.
Stop, smell the flowers. Go research and write about them, or maybe, just write about how nice they smell, the color they are, and how wonderful they smelled. Don't forget to tell us if they were soft and delicate, or pointy and prickley!
Being new to Hub Pages, the advice I have on earnings here is to go through and read some of the writings of people who have been here much longer.
Search for sites that publish writing for money. Helium.com is one I am most familiar with, having written there for about six months.
Helium has contests for writers to win. Even new people to the site can win these. Most of these contests strive for researched and nice-looking articles.
Another addition to Helium are publishers looking for articles to publish there.
Hub Pages most likely has publishers watching for good authors, although I haven't been on long enough to determine this.
Writers are good at sharing their information, so if you are looking for ways to make money, you can most likely find it. Research for money ideas.
In the meantime, have fun writing, learning more, and relax. I'm Betty Jo.

Interresting hub, Like you say you can make money but you need to enjoy it as well, I enjoy writing, although I would certainly love to earn a little more.
me too but i'd def go to research writin as i'm not tht well versed you could say and at the same time would love to learn stuff while researching. though my idea of researching is lookin at like maybe 2-3 articles or if i'm not satisfied, then a bit more. grins.

Do you think Samuel Clemens wasn't having fun writing? Or Edgar Allen Poe? Or Shakespeare? Or the owners of this site?
I do it for the fun of it. The only money I have made yet was on Helium, and I am in the process of donating it all. At this time, I'm donating to the National Autism Association. I only distantly know a couple of girls with it. Just donating to a worthy cause. A Good cause.
BEST HiNT Of the Day; Buy a plastic container. Put in Kitty Litter. Find where Kitty already went. NEXT step, Kinda gross, but this Works: Carefully, and with hands covered, put Kitty last pit stop into container of Litter. Instant and Works!!!! bj
I like your idea od spontaneous donation.
Good hub
yes that is the power of google, helps people make money only by researching
Thanks for reading my small article. Mostly I was stressing how people should sometimes take the time to write just for the fun of it.
Research articles are money makers, and other methods.
