One Thing That Improves Salescopy, Newsletters & Articles
We've all been there, sometimes it's tough coming up with new things to write about. Depending your topic, it may even be an area that rarely has any new spice to it.
If you're like most you have no time to do comprehensive research before writing your next newsletter or article.
What If you knew one secret that top online marketers already know that puts tons of fresh content at your finger tips with little time investment?
A swipe file can do all this and a bit more for you by giving you a place to turn. What's a swipe file?
It's a place to store all your resources on a given topic in one place, they can prevent writers block, give you tons of facts to quote, and pull new ideas from.
How do you go about aquiring one?
Whether you use an electronic swipe file using a folder on your computer to search thru, or a paper one, they all have the same benefit.
A paper swipe is as easy to start as grabbing an accordian file from a local office supply store (ask one they all know what they are).
What goes into my swipe file?
* RSS Feeds
* Press Releases
* Other People's Newsletters
* Photos
* speeches
* Brochures
* articles
* stats
* Newspapers
* Magazines
* Promos
* Salesletters
* Reports / Stats / Studies
But how do I know if something should go in my swipe file or not?
It Grabbed You..
Things that grab your attention like good headlines, testimonials or a good story.
It Inspired You..
This can be things that establish good credibility, a great warranty, good testimonials or strong benefits.
It Shocked You!
Some things that could do this would be good statistics, a huge promise, a shocking picture.
Any thrown together swipe file no matter how loose, or organized, has benefits. Remember, they're always a work in progress and there's no right way to organize it.
In my recent book, I even talk about creating a completely electronic swipe file that adds all these content types on it's own from all over the web
based on keyword phrases you choose.
Build your own swipe file and just watch how often you refer to it!

Fiction writing
Fiction is writing that includes imaginary characters, events and/or settings created by the writer. A fiction writer should be an extensive reader. The writer must attempt to read fiction not only from the type he/she prefers to write, but also the types in which he/she has not explored.
Types of Fiction Writing
Traditionally there are two types of fiction writing
Category- It also referred as ÂgenreÂ. In this type of stories we can categorize distinct theme in fiction. Examples are: science, westerns, adventure, historical, romance, erotica, suspense, fantasy, mystery, and war stories.
Mainstream-These stories are aimed at the widest possible audience and typically deal with most aspects of modern life including relationships, careers, and the search for success and fulfillment.
Elements of effective fiction writing
Theme- Theme is the main idea or meaning behind a story. It is a theoretical refinement of the story. A clear theme makes a story successful.
Characters ÂCharacters are the main effective elements in any story. Most stories consist of experience or events of people and some consists of animals. Each new character adds a new dimension to the story, so characters should be introduced early in the story. The more often a character is mentioned or appears the more significance the reader will attach to the character.
Plot- Plot is the skeleton form of a story that holds the entire story together. It is the related series of events that are arranged to form a story. It usually consists of a conflict, climax and resolution. The plot also may include subplots that are part of or subordinate to the main plot. The plots and subplots are broken into scenes, which are pieces of the story showing the action of one event.
Setting- It includes the place and time in which the story takes place. The setting should be described in specifics to make the story seems real. The setting of the story should have atmosphere, mood and the limitations on the characters.
Style- Style is the writer's use of the language. A clear, concise and precise writing attracts the reader. A combination of good story and good writing makes a fiction writer successful.
Dialogue -The dialogue is the speech of characters. The form of dialogue should be varied to keep the reader interested. Dialogue should be used to develop character or to advance the story.
These elements provide writers with a standard guideline and sense of organization in their fiction. Fiction writers utilize these elements to effect their readers perceptions of their writing.
