About Demand Studios

I've been writing for Demand Studios since May. So far, I've made about a thousand dollars, just writing on the weekends, averaging four articles per weekend. (Yes, I know, I need to step up the pace, but I tend to get caught up in research.)

And, I must say that I really like those twice a week deposits into my PayPal account. Yes, they pay twice a week for the flat fee articles. Approved by Sunday midnight, paid on Tuesday; approved by Wednesday midnight, paid on Friday.


Loving it!


Unfortunately, my kids found out. Oops. So now they ask for more stuff, while I'm just trying to make more money to pay bills.

And I still get a little bit every month from my old eHow account. I need to take the time and work my way through the old stuff, do a little bit of revising and updating, keep those articles fresh so they keep making money for me.

Oh, my old eHow address is: http://www.ehow.com/members/razzberry-jam.html

And my new Demand Studios articles don't show up the same way on eHow, so it's easier to do a google search using "ehow.com Ruth deJauregui articles" and see what pops up. I stay busy, so it changes fairly quickly.

Anyway, I'm planning on continuing writing for Demand Studios as well as working on my novel and writing in my blogs.

(I promise to write more often. Really!)

Checking Out Break Studios

I've read a number of encouraging reports about Break Studios. They are similar to Demand Studios except they only pay $8 an article, and payday is twice a month -- the 1st and 15th.

The positive spin is that people are reporting that they can write articles in less than half the time that it takes to write an article on Demand Studios and you get several rewrite opportunities.

Now, not that I'm going to disparage my fellow writers, but when someone says they can whip out an article in 10 minutes, I wonder if it's a quality article or if it's something they're an expert in, so it's easy for them.

Well, I should at least write a couple of articles to try Break Studios out. The titles might be a little easier. So if you see a byline of razzberry-jam or my real name, yup, that's me!!

Too Busy To Write?

Well, I've been moved from the old eHow to the parent company, Demand Studios.

It's been a learning curve, but I think I'm improving. Demand Studios has a very specific writing style that must be adhered to. Like I said, it's been a learning curve.

While I sort of miss the freedom of eHow, I really, really like the twice a week payment to my PayPal account. I've already made more in the last month and a half than I made in my seven months of writing for eHow.

Better, the old eHow articles, all 108, are still making residual income.

So, I've got to find time to write in my blogs too. I've just been too busy with Demand Studios...
