Using Origional vs Rewrites

When we are writing original content, the content is expected to have our slant on the topic. When we do a rewrite, it is expected to have a different slant - but the same topic.

Freelance Writing Skills



Here is the same thought written in different ways, for different audiences. This is how freelance writers manage to write a dozen articles on one topic - in one day.

It takes a bit of time to do this, but it becomes habit after awhile. It isn't the prettiest form of writing, but it does pay the bills. And, once you learn it, you can write a book, and then write 100 articles to promote it, and everything will be 100% original content.
