Time For A Change?
I have come to believe that actually earning a living online sharing my #art is an unrealistic expectation. The #sites and #apps I've tried (ALL of them) have paid out pocket change at best, if they paid anything. While I have zero desire to be rich mate
What Can Be Done About Bubblews?
By now, most, if not all, have undoubtedly already heard about the demise of Bubblews. Without warning, the writing site in question has been shut down. This is really quite upsetting and depressing, you know? Unexpected shut down, no warning at all That
Productive Day
I am smiling :-D I have had a productive day, no not in PP, and got some things off my back and my non-existent to-do-list too. Web sites I managed to get two of my web sites up and running again. The sites themselves were not down but I had been unable
Rating Teachers?
I recently google searched my seventh grade English teacher. After reading &DWDavisRSL 's post I thought about the teachers I had that really impacted me not only in my learning but in general. My seventh grade English teacher was Tom Miller, and
What Do You Think of Seekyt's New Revenue Sharing Contest?
Many of us who used to write for #Squidoo used to chafe under the tier system – a system where lenses were given a tier. Lenses in the top tier received a greater portion of shared advertising revenues than lenses in the bottom tier or no tier. No ma
Active Tweeter Since April 2012
Responding to a #FOPP post by &bestwriter . Twitter asks me to follow Barack Obama!! My response was too long to just leave a comment. ◊ ◊ ◊ Some people can't have life on the #Internet without their #socialmedia accounts. Others could
List Making Possibilities
Last April, shared a post about a website that will pay $100 for a list. Truth be told, keep pinching myself to see if it's all a dream. Expecting the site to disappear! Just checked the site today and the “Write and Get Paid” offer is still th
How trustworthy are we?
I was listening to an online lecture that discussed #personality traits of a trustworthy person. There were four characteristics that were stressed upon: When you speak, tell the #truth. When you are spoken to, listen attentively to the person who
No More Bubbling!
Didn't reach my goal. Had hoped to have published 100 bubbles by the end of March 2015. That's three months – January through March - about 33 posts per month. Missed it by 6! So as of today there are 94 bubbles with my name on them. The posts can be
Where Are We Taking Persona Paper?
This morning I looked at my notifications and I did not get inspired to read more than a few posts. I thought I was back at Bubblews for a minute. I realize I'm just as guilty of laziness as anyone else, but the rest of the world will not beat a path to
Progress Report on Life and Life Online
As I've mentioned before, I've been over-extended lately. More and more has to be done offline, and the time has to come from somewhere. That somewhere appears to be online time. I have to get tough with myself and see if I can be a disciplined blogger or

Bubblews - Status Report
Not writing this in the hopes of dividing and conquering. Not trying to get anybody to back me up. Not seeking out PROs or CONs either way. Just reporting the facts and opinions. My facts. My opinions. There are writers that are either done with #Bubblews
Flitting Around from Site to Site and Writing Far into the Night
In case you've missed me, I have been trying to keep up with some new ventures lately. Most of them involve writing something. I am committed to one post each day for my Capturing the Paso Robles Area with My Camera blog, since to be in the Daily City Phot
Some Random Thoughts For The Day
Raw was pretty good last night. I know some fans didn't care for the show, but I enjoyed it. There were more Wrestlemania developments; we're gonna see the Undertaker at the big event. The WWE -finally- kicked off Orton vs. Rollins, and with a bang, I migh
can't believe i'm talking about shopping again...
after i just wrote about using discount cards and shopping (read about it here, http://www.personapaper.com/article/26061-discount-cards). anyway, i signed up for a number of online shopping sites here in my country. although i want to try out
Where to Buy a Tank
If you wanted one, where would you buy a tank? I've found the website that sells ex military goods - and found at the top of the list was a tank for sale. So, what sort of tank? This turned out to be a full blown, proper, tank. Yes,
Why Have I Not Been On Here?
Seriously, where have I been? I joined another similar website, in which the earnings were "faster" and heyyyy, I've seen too many "nonpayment" posts for my liking. I am also hearing that the admins are not even responding back. I may post over there sever
An ultimate reading list
From time-to-time, we all come across #reading-lists on various #websites about what to read and which books are bestsellers but recently I came across a #blog which lists must-read books from not one or two authors but countless #books from 196 countries.
CGP Gallery: An update
I became a member of #CGP-Gallery quite a while back but was not very active because of a number of issues. Trust being one and time being another. However, once I crossed the $10 mark, I put in some extra time and effort to see if I could #cash out. Bes
What You May or May Not Know About Me
Tonight I'm too tired to be clever or profound. Part of the reason is because of these things about me. 1. I have a tendency to bite off more than I can chew. 2. I tend to jump into things before thinking them through enough because I'm trying
ISPs can be odd at times
ISPs (internet service providers) are sometimes completely odd. Some Canadian #websites (in my experience motorsport sponsors) will not let you log in from outside Canada. The #BBC only lets you view bbc.co.uk when you're in the UK. Despite the
Introduction for UK_Writer

So sick of the lies
I am so sick of reading posts made by a certain person at another site that are blatant lies. I am more sick of people believing those lies and kissing up to this guy when he is just concerned with himself. He doesn't care about you. You
Homeschooling in NY State - part one
I know plenty of New Yorkers in general who would love to know how to go about in NY state. Watching the media and seeing the rates of high school drop outs, the crime rates among high schoolers, bullying and suicide stories on the media, concerns about th
Walking away is not easy but it's the only option for me.
I have trouble walking away from projects and other things when I commit to them. It takes me a while to commit and, during that time, I can easily walk away and not think twice. but once I find myself committed to something, I stick with it even if it str
Is It Time To Leave Bubblews?
When I first considered joining #Bubblews, an online friend told me that the high pay was not sustainable and that he was joining while it was good, would milk it while the money was good, and then leave when it wasn't. I joined with the same thoughts. Bub
Goodbye Helium, Goodbye Bubblews
As 2014 comes to an end, so does my long association with two sites that I had poured all my love of #writing into. Helium.com I became a member of Helium.com in 2007. I loved my time there as a member, writer, channel manager and student as Helium was
Going to be a busy weekend
Tonight is reserved for talking to my parents, #eBay sortings out and a bit of work for my client. Tomorrow I have been asked to go into #work to help out with some #overdue inputting. Fine. It's overtime. They're paying me. What's not to like? In additi
I don't know whether to laugh or to cry...a personal rant
About two months ago, I was earning about $200 a month on #Bubblews. I was doing what I love doing the most...writing, interacting, leaving comments on other people's posts and offering tips, word of comfort where needed, sharing jokes or personal anecdote
Three things I really like about PP
I still feel that I am a bit of newbie when it comes to PP but there are a few things that i already love about the site: 1) The staff and other members are very quick to help and respond to queries. One thing that i really hate about some #websites is th
I Wonder If HubPages is Still Worth It
Most content I see on #HubPages is of high quality. Maybe I'm just lucky, but I see a lot of really good content on HubPages. I believe some of my hubs are also first class, and many of them have been designated Editors' Choice hubs. Yet my 149 hubs have o
How To Spread Your Writing Around
Another writer on Persona Paper was saying she likes to find new #writing sites, but it's difficult making ends meet unless she spends time at the sites that pay the most. I'm also finding this to be true. One can belong to many sites and pop in sporadic
Are social networking sites becoming a dwelling place for image bashers and stalkers?
The pace at which information is accessed in present times is astonishing. A few clicks and you have what you need. It’s hard to imagine how the future will unfold. Social networking sites have become a rage with internet users. While a virtual dwell

Why Did Everyone Migrate to Bubblews in 2013?
Why Did Everyone Migrate to Bubblews in 2013? Was #Bubblews such a great site that people just couldn't help joining? Or was Bubblews the beneficiary of troubles at other sites that hundreds of people belonged to? As I remember, about the time I j
What’s the Difference Between These Two Sites?
I heard about Daily Two Cents and took a look at it a couple of weeks ago. A couple of days go I heard about Writedge, which appears to be owned by the same people, have the same format based on WordPress, and pays about the same amount. I’m wonderin
Eight Reasons I Love Writing at Persona Paper
The Editor. I have been writing for another site that pays fairly well, but its editor is funky and makes its writers look incompetent. The Persona Paper editor not only lets us put our book titles in italics, but it also gives us a lot of other bells
A Suggestion For New Personae; Read Up First
A lot of us here on #Personapaper are old hands at multiple #websites with a complex experience and history with so many different types of platforms, we could probably operate a website – somewhat – on our own. But, others, might not share our
ELIMINATING SITES
Hey Now!!! I like starting off some posts that way. Anyway, I have decided that I will no longer be writing on Milk The Blog. That is a WordPress site to earn money blogging like here in Persona Paper. I have also looked into other sites as well, one calle
Here a little, there a little, everywhere a little, little!
It seems that just when we learn how to navigate one good online writing site, another one pops up. Here a little, there a little, everywhere a little, little. And no, we're not talking Facebook, which quite frankly, drives DorothyGale nuts. Such a time
