Writing has always interested me, but until recently I haven't paid much serious attention to it. Seven months ago I published my first article on bladder cancer at HubPages.com. Since then, I have had one idea after another for articles.
InfoBarrel.com was sited in an article I read, and after reading about the Adsense program and sampling some of the writing, I decided this was a place for me to branch out.
Retirement has its advantages, but income is sometimes a shortfall. Since I enjoy working alone, and as a "Gemini" have a lot of different interests, I began investigating opportunities for passive income online. Writing and making a little money on the side seemed a great way to have fun and come across some coin at the same time. The decision to treat writing seriously has enriched me in ways I couldn't imagine.
I enjoy writing informative articles about health, investments, gardening, and technology. Every now and then I will dabble with a piece of creative writing, but I find the inspiration for a story comes less frequently than writing an informative article. Nevertheless, I hope to write some human interest/humorous articles at Infobarrel.com.
My home is a small copper mining town about 60 miles east of Phoenix, Arizona. The area is considered high desert. We have mountain breezes and slightly lower temperatures than in the Phoenix Valley. It is a marvelous area for points of interest: Apache Leap, Boyce Thompson Arboretum, Picket Post Mountain, Tonto Basin Cliff Dwellings, Roosevelt Lake - and the list goes on. This place I love has been an inspiration in some of my writing.
My profile and a list of my articles is located at http://john000.hubpages.com/
I also have a blog on sales, discounts, coupons, bargains and some how-to at http://tightwad-tightwad.blogspot.com/
It's great to be on InfoBarrel.com and I look forward to an interesting and rewarding tenure. Write-on! :)
