My son is 9 years old, doesn’t want to learn at all, but wants to read books constantly on his own. Story books for high school level or interesting non-fiction books. My husband and I are at a total loss as of what to do about the situation. It seems that he is totally uninterested in conventional learning. Also he has a real problem taking orders from any authoritive figure. Any advice?

I’d like to become a writer of fiction, an actress, or possibly an artist…what should I do in high school to get into that kind of school? I’m not very talented in anything that isn’t creative…so I need to know what I should do! Please help!

When I get older, I want to be a fiction/realistic fiction writer. What would be the best college for me to attend?

My first choice is to be an actress, but obviously I have to have a backup, and if I can’t act, I would love to edit books. You’d think I’d have to major in publishing, but it isn’t an option on a lot of lists of majors on scholarship websites. What else could I major in to become an editor of fiction books?

may be about the immigration hostory of the New World, or the celebration of diversity of the US. could somebody give me some ideas? or anywhere on the web i could find some reference.
Thank you very much.

To become an author, should I study:
*English Literature? (I’m not interested in it, because it would just be about literature, not how to write better).
*Linguistics?
*Any others?

To write for a magazine, should I study:
*Journalism?
*Film studies?
*Media?
*Communications?
*Any others?

Writing articles is easy once you learn how. There are plenty of simple strategies to use to write content rich articles that communicate your marketing message. These articles also add value to your product offerings and give your potential customers a taste of what you offer.

If you want to write articles that get read though, there are certain things you need to do:

1. Use short paragraphs.

When Ernest Hemingway was a reporter for the Kansas City Star, he learned to write short words, short sentences, and short paragraphs. This is good advice for writing on the internet because readers tend to skim.

2. Use numbers or bullets for your major points.

Not only can bullet points help you focus your article so you stick to the subject, it’s a fast and easy way to outline your articles. It makes writing your articles fast and easy.

Again, because readers skim, they pick up the salient points of your article. Make sure your resource box points your readers to more information. This will increase your conversions and help you get more subscribers and sales.

3. Use sub headings to break up paragraphs.

If you are writing an article for your website, or the article is unusually long, then use sub headings to break up your article into sections. You may even consider using sub headings and breaking your long articles into multiple pages.

4. Craft an attention getting headline or title.

Before you use any title for your article, do a search in your favorite search engine to make sure it’s not being used. This will allow you to more easily track the syndication of your article.

You also want to write a title that gets your reader to read the article. Study article titles, as well as headlines and use what you learn to write your titles. Look for titles that make you want to read the article.

5. Keep your readers interested.

Writing a good title is only the first part. Your next step is write content your readers want to read. Tips, tutorials, recipes, and problem solving articles are always a good way to keep your reader engaged.

6. Use specific statistics or statements for added punch.

Avoid using things like some, many, or all. Statistics add punch to your articles. It’s also a great way to get readers back to your site for more information. Also use numbers instead of the words for numbers as this makes your article easier to read.

Keep your articles short and to the point. Use these tips to get more readers for your articles, and you’ll get more targeted traffic.
