To receive a list of 50 groups and sites that accept submissions send an email to submissionlist@daysofsuccess.com.

Here's how it works. The key is to have a system that you use. An example is below:

. Write at least one article each month. . Include a resource box at end of it. . Include permission to fr*eely distribute it at top. . Submit it to at least 5 sites each day.

~*~To make your writing easily acceptable and profitable~*~

. Provide useful information. No sales letters or pitches.

. Include some way to get readers to contact you: you could offer a fre*ebie or a link to your website. This info goes into your resource box.

. Make your resource box about 4 - 6 lines long. I've included mine at end of this article to give you an idea.

. Write it using a text editor like Notepad - that's how many editors prefer to receive submissions.

. Format it to be 65 characters long per line. Press 'enter' key each time you get to 65 characters (unless your text editor has word-wrap in which case you'd set it to wrap at 65 characters).

. Always obey submission guidelines to letter.

. Follow writing tips below.

~*~Writing Tips~*~

. Write like you talk. Be conversational in your writing. If you can hold a conversation, you can write.

. After writing your first draft, leave it to 'fallow' then start on your next article.

. Never submit your first draft. Rewrite it after a day or two.

. Spell check thoroughly. Check for grammar errors too. Get someone else to read through it if you can - they may pick up something you've missed.

. Obey submission guidelines (it's so important, hence my repeating it here)

. Write something everyday. Even if it's just a personal journal entry, just write. It'll get you into habit, and keep you creative.

I didn't quite expect this 'tip' to turn into a full blown article! But hey, I enjoyed writing it, and I hope you've enjoyed reading it.

If you have then start writing today.

And start submitting.

Always have a "Plan B". The best time to accelerate your job search is when you've just had greatest interview of your life. You're feeling confident, enthusiastic and competent. This is time to expand your networking, follow-up on contacts and schedule new interviews. Remember, even most promising prospect can backfire.

Take care of yourself physically, emotionally and spiritually. Exercise and eating right can't go wrong-they are proven to enhance quality of life. Celebrate your creativity and find ways to engage your mind, body and spirit.

Research companies before interview. Find out about company through your local library and Internet. Request an annual financial report and promotional information from company. Ninety percent of other job seekers don't do their homework, be one that stands out.

Know what you have to offer. Identify your relevant skills and accomplishments. Know unique contributions you offered former employers. Be able to articulate your strengths on your resume and in interview.

Think outside box during your job search. Look for unexpected opportunities; explore untapped skills and interests. Open yourself up to new possibilities
