The Song of Myself by Walt Whitman

Walt Whitman was a transcendentalist. He eulogised the Self. " The Song of Myself " is one of his epic poems. He wondered at Space, Time and Death, the three modes thorough which the Universal expresses Itself

Swiftly I shrivel at the thought of God
At Nature and her marvels - Space, Time and Death !

Then I turn to Thee , O Actual Me,
Lo! Thou gently masterest the orbs
Thou smilest content with Death
And fillest swellest the vastnesses of Space !


From this verse, it is clear that Walt Whitman had philosophic knowledge as he understood the relationship of individual Self to the Supreme Self ! Thee is Actual Me !

How to earn revenue from writing !

It is easy to become a writer, but difficult to make a living out of it !

This statement is true. Anyone can become a writer, but it is difficult to make a living with it.

Now with the rise of the World Wide Web, writers can earn money blogging and setting up websites. The Net is a written medium and hence a writer's Paradise.

You can sign up for blogger and create blogs. You know the statement " We are good at something", meaning that all are experts in some field or other.

So know your area of expertise and set up blogs. Sign up for Google Adsense and post Adsense ads on your blog. You can set up an umpteen no of blogs. These ads will fetch you revenue. I have 21 blogs and I am getting good revenue from them. I have 5 sites and I get good adrevenue from them also. This is how writing can be used for bringing home the bacon!

Not only Google Adsense ads but other ads you can put on the site. Adbrite ads is another source of revenue for me. Also other ads. There are many ads. PPC or Pay Per Click, PPL or Pay per Lead, or PPS, Pay per Sale. Shareasale.com, register.com, Amazon - all these can give you PPS or PPL ads.
