PWG: Writers Groups, Cronyism and Playing Favorites

A few years ago, I was invited to join a "Buddies" writers group on Facebook by a FB friend who was the admin. I joined and posted a few links and clicked on a few links. It was similar to the other reciprocal groups which I usually shy away from. What happened next cemented my idea that these groups usually fall into cronyism and favoritism. After seeing others sharing info about a variety of...

Vlog #3 : What Are We Doing Here? | Solivagus of PWG

In any case I took it upon my (pretty) self to put my (beautiful) face on a video and explain to you guys the difference between this place and...

Evidence That Vampires May Exist

I was excited to find more of these stories that I now want to share.

PWG Discussion: Journal Posts & Discussions vs. Articles

In visiting some of the other posts on PWG, I see quite a few that are journal posts: chatty, about me, what-I-did-today, what-I-am thinking kinds of posts, what my pet did, what my toaster did, how much PWG has changed since I last visited, etc. It looks like those posts are fine here, so this is not a complaint, but there is a difference between a journal post and an article, and if we are attracting...

Show Them What You've Got!

Your writing is an extension of you as a person. What you present to the world is what they will remember about you. I realize this is a subject that is not approached on many other sites, but I feel the need to make this a high priority here. You see, I am also an editor on Fullofknowledge.com. Our standards there are very high. I do not want to be an editor here, I want you all to speak your mind,...

Creative Commons -- Gateway to Black Hat Copyright Infringement

 Will We Be Protected at Preferred Writers Group?  I am reprinting an older article from Bukisa for the Preferred Writers Group in hopes it opens some dialog on whether or not our articles will be copyright protected here. It would be nice to have a notice somewhere on the PWG that all articles are copyrighted by the writers, all right reserved.  Bukisa had so many issues with keyword...

Collective Creative Consciousness, Anyone?

What does three hours of "trying" to sleep equal? I'll tell you exactly what it equals : 2 hours of "tossing, and turning , and pondering" 1 song lyric 2 vocal melodies 1 Instrumental reworking and at least... 4 articles (5 counting this one)! The level of creative juices flowing is off the scale. I blame PWG! What have you people done to me? It has to be a by product of the "Collective Creative...

Living Life or a Life Worth Living

Have you ever questioned yourself about the quality of your life? Often times, we never think about such things until confronted with a different perspective such as that of an elderly person who lives alone. If I was asked that question, I would have to say that right now, I am living a life. When you think about it, it doesn't sound rewarding. How would you like to create a life worth living?...

Infolinks with Google Adsense? Yes!

Did you know that infolinks can be used in addition to google adsense?  That's right!  Google has officially responded to a question posed by a social media expert that I follow on twitter and has said that the use of 3rd party ads on your site are perfectly alright provided they: 1. Do not attempt to associate themselves with google ads. 2. Are clearly of a different look and template...

Tale of the Brave Martyr Bubbler

I was just about to log off and settle in for a good movie tonight when I noticed something interesting. But first a bit of back story is called for to color the drama at play. I have seen review articles of other pay sites that were allowed by Bubblews so I posted a review article of our Preferred Writers Group giving my connections another earning opportunity. My review was innocent enough, considering...

A Personal Welcome to PWG

I realize the "How It Works" page is a bit formal and reads more like an sales pitch. But that is typical for what people in this niche would expect from an Online Content site. They want to know all the details. What I wanted to now is extend a personal welcome to each of you on this the end of our very first day as a social network community.
