Introduction   

You can be an Internet publisher within 60 minutes. 

Sounds too good to be true. 

It's not.  

There are tens of thousands of author/publishers on the Internet today.   That does not necessarily mean that they are talented, it just means that they took the initiative and started to write about something that was important to them, something that they were familiar with and knew inside out. 

I can only guess that they wanted recognition for a specific reason. 

This could be several things, 

A, They wanted to draw attention to something specific. This could be an event or an organization or a cause. 

B, They wanted to share an interest in, but not a product or service, something that they like to do or have an interest in. This could be a hobby or a sport. 

Or C, They wanted to create interest in a product or a website that they are interested in promoting. 

The first point of this audio series is to help you find that topic and put it down on paper and then publish it on the Internet. The second point is to show you how to capitalize on your article writing and use it to your advantage for recognition and to draw traffic to your site. 

The main point of this audio series is that anyone can write and publish on the Internet. and 

even though you don't write for a living, you can write and be published or self published on the Internet.  

Lets get started. 

Part 1:

Part 1: How To Pick a Topic. 

Here are a list of potential Article Topics to help you., 

1. Hobbies, this is an obvious one but overlooked by many people starting to write. 
2. Work or Career related. Some of you may be working for companies that prohibit you from writing about anything that has to do with your job. If that's the case don't write about your job. If you do decide to write, then use a pseudonym. It's very common among writers. So common in fact, that the use of a pseudonym is allowed on U.S. copyright forms. 
3. Personal issues. Are you a single mother or father? Have you recently gone through a divorce? Are you happily married? These are all topics that you may have experience with and you have an interesting slant on. For example, Let's say that you are happily married for along time. You could share how you personally stay in a happy marriage. 
4. Sports, Do you play any sports. Are you an avid, golfer, tennis player, ice skater, softball player or bowler? If you are really good perhaps you can share some tips. 
5. Running, jogging or power-walking tips or experiences. 
6. Movies. Start your own blog about movies. Reviews, Ratings etc. Use the Blog as the basis for the article and talk about what issues you find most important. 
7. Trivia, Once Again a Blog may be the best focul point. 
8. Automobiles, Classics, Street Rods, Stock cars Drag Racing.   I once had a though about writing an automobile detailing book because I was pretty good at it.
