Having written a few hundred, successful, Hubs over the last 8 years, I've never managed to get started with Wizzley.

For some unknown reason every piece I've written in the past was marked as "blocked" ... and I've no idea why, so I shuffled off and thought "bug ya then" :)

Back now to try again ...

There's "nothing wrong" with my "blocked" articles, imho.... they were just original pieces I wrote, from my head, without links/affiliate links or anything; written in straight forward English.  My face just didn't fit I guess.

So, back to try again .....

Well, having moaned like a good 'un... I wrote and it's been passed.

Finally! 

:)

Putting effort into writing, without the confidence it'll become published, really generates its own "writers' block"

It's certainly not conducive to producing your best work .... as you're thinking "Ah, what the heck ..... is it worth losing my afternoon if it'll be rejected".

I don't' think it's all that difficult to write here and get approved, but the Admin does expect quality articles that are written well.  If you are not sure what will pass muster, check out the FAQ and such (if you have not already).

Just looking around the site at what we are all writing about, and how we do it, will also give you an idea of what is expected.

Best of luck!  I look forward to reading what you write.

This is an easy site to write for.  In just over a year I have over 150 articles approved, and the only minor glitches were when I was new and had one or two not meet the minimum word count.  But the message was clear why the articles were not published, and I fixed them, each time in a matter of less than an hour.  Now I type in a word processor and use a word counter, then cut and paste.  I did have one questionable topic, but I asked here first and did not write that one.  In case of doubt, ask here.  The admin is fast to reply, and it makes you a team player.  So, one fewer article is not much of a price to use the platform.
