Writing for Expertscolumn

Late last year I joined a writing site called Expertscolumn. I wasn't very active on there to begin with but in the last few months I've made sure to write there every day.

They are honest and helpful, and have been about for a relatively long time. They offer payments via PayPal or Moneybookers and you can cash out once you've reached $5. From my experience, payments are done within a few days.

Unlike some other writing sites, articles on Expertscolumn are highly ranked on Google. I've found several of mine on the first page and this obviously helps with page views: You can read a couple of my articles by following these links:

E.L. James: An inspiration for self-published writers?

I'm not saying that every aspiring writer should try and be the next E.L. James but her success is to be admired. I don't imagine even E.L, James herself ever expected this level for success for her Shades of Grey series and it's the same for every writer:  No one knows what will happen once they publish their work.

When I looked on Amazon earlier, I noticed that the books were getting mixed reviews; some said that the books weren't that well written but they are still a runaway success.

Books don't have to be perfect in order to be a success and the fact that E.L. James is self-published should serve as an inspiration. You can read my article about E.L. James at:
