Hi, all. I am new here. Just joined today. This seems like a great group. I like working for the AC. I am actually making some money, not a lot, but some.

This week though I seem to be running out of ideas. How does everyone find their ideas? Yes, I have tried the news. But I am getting sick of health stories. Any other ideas?

Oh, here's my link if anyone wants to check out some of my articles.

Hi Linda! I started to write some vacation place articles this week, but I know what you mean about running out of ideas. I think product comparisons were also a topic idea this week. I'll check out your AC articles :)

Thanks Robin. I'll check out some of yours, too. We all could use more page views.

I have been transfering reviews from Epinions to AC, so I have a backlog of over 800 ready. It is just a matter of getting motivated and doing it. heh.

I am finding that comparison reviews pay quite a bit more though, so I am going to try to do a few more of those soon...

Hmmm, sounds interesting. I'll have to check out some of your work on the AC. Thanks for the idea.

ugh - I know exactly how you feel. I just got a great email saying they're paying $10 bucks for how-to articles. I managed to submit 1. That's it... I _know_ that I know how to do stuff lol - I just can't seem to think of anything. I know AC recommends checking out the top searches and that sometimes generates some good ideas, but I don't think I want to write something about Anna Nicole Smith, know what I mean?

I definitely know what you mean. Those how to articles are okay. But it is hard to come up with 600 words on how to do certain things. You just do them without thinking about them. I did like it when they gave us a whole list of possible article to write with an assigned amount. Those were more to my liking than the how to guides.
