Great, you are here! I'm excited to to share your next and final tip! Have you ever noticed, how certain how we as humans often seem to attract bad energy to ourselves? How does that saying go, if misfortune strikes, if a bird drops its load, it's on your head. Have you also noticed how, when you feel negative inside, bad thing happen to you on the outside? On the other side, have you noticed, that when you are feeling loving, powerful and optimistic, life throws back a smile at you. Have you noticed, that when you allow your inborn optimism to grow, opportunities find you? Finally, have you noticed how others are drawn to your positive energy and are repelled by your lethargy? It's called life! Have you noticed, how readers, and film and stage audiences respond when the character rises up out of the ashes of despair, pain and humiliation, touches or moves us and are by far the most popular forms of entertainment. Would you also believe, that unless our l...

Whenever you come across some hauntingly beautiful prose or a meaningful piece of written content, don't you pause, even for a moment, perhaps even jot it down for future use, then forget all about it. Well, it doesn't have to be that way, as writing is not always this ravenous drive for recognition and being heard, NO, sometimes it is simply about sharing something nice with anyone out there who may just be needing to "feel" at that point. The latter, I have to confess, matters more to me. I believe, I can comfortably say, I'm a writer, in fact, you could be a "writer" yourself, and not know it. This is not an attempt at wordsmithing, but seriously, If you are a driven reader, your'e more than halfway there. How do I know this? well as you do your research after quality life objects, you begin with a thought of your version of the qualities to look for. Your version may not appeal to the next person  or the next one after that, and s...

Identify Best-selling Image Trends BEFORE Writing Your Next Article or book. This featured banner image, has nothing whatsoever to do with my article, I just fell in love with the mystery of it all. Over the past few years, there’s been a complete turnaround   in the article publishing scene.  What was once fashionable is now dead in the water. That’s not to say that an old trend was simply a passing phase, or that it won’t make a comeback, change, while being a good thing, can be quite fickle but for 2018, keeping up with current trends will help you tremendously get more views. Regardless of your favorite genre, it’s important for writers to search out the competition in their quest to find topic market domination. And, this doesn’t only effect genres that are popular right now. It can actually mean your banner image style! For instance, banners with images of people surged in popularity but now we seem to be regressing to a more minimalist approach in many genres. ...

Dissertations! What exactly are they? A dissertation is a long essay on a particular subject, especially one written for a university degree or diploma. Writing a dissertation is an entirely new experience. Being a graduate student has been, more or less, an extension of your earlier life as a student. Lots of people, in fact, go to graduate school because they have always been termed, “good at school,” and want to continue with something that brings them success and self-confidence. The reading assignments, papers, labs, and tests you have been assigned as a graduate student may not have been so different from your undergrad courses. The dissertation, is a new kind of academic project, unlike anything else you’ve done before. It is the academic project that marks your transition from student to scholar.
