Writers Unbound

I have been reading Doug’s work for a long time. He gives generously and sells a lot too. I felt like sharing this lesson with you to both introduce you to Doug and because of the multiple links to help you explore article writing further. Enjoy.

To your success with PLR…

Hi, Mary!

Welcome to Lesson Two of your PLR Masters E-Course.
Today we’ll take a quick look at the types of PLR available
online, before starting to delve into using each type of
resource.

PLR Articles: By far the most common form of PLR products
online right now are articles with PLR. They’re easy for
writers to knock off, and they can provide the same articles
to a number of people in very short order. Sites like our
http://www.EasyArticlesPro.com make it even easier, by
providing 25 articles per niche and including the PLR
headers to match that niche…

PLR E-Books: Almost as common are e-books with PLR. But
you have to be careful - some have been around a long time
and thousands of people already have PLR to them. On the
other side of the coin, if you’re doing substantial
rewriting of your PLR products, the age of the original
material doesn’t matter if the content is still relevant.

PLR Audios: Less common but increasingly offered are
audios with PLR - usually audio formats of articles or
e-books. When accompanying a written product, audio
versions are a great way to provide added value. On their
own they make a great product too, as long as you know
how to process them correctly (covered in Lessons 14-18).

PLR Videos: This is a fairly new area, and will evolve
into the most powerful form of PLR once IMers learn how
to handle them effectively. Don’t scrimp here - take the
time to try different programs til you know how to edit
these into great products and powerful tools for your
biz - again, we’ll cover these in depth in future lessons.

PLR Websites: While fairly rare, sites like our own
http://www.NichePLR.com provide you with sites already
laid out, optimized for Adsense, ClickBank & Amazon, and
ready for you to use as-is or with easy changes. PLR
sites are an easy way to boost your online profile, and
build more one-way links back to your main site/blog.

PLR Source Code: This is the most limited, and usually
toughest to process, of all the types of PLR. While most
programmers creating programs with PLR make it fairly
easy to change the header or opening screen, it’s still
going to look like the same program unless you can find
a good programmer who can make alterations to the actual
source code for you. Unless you’re a programmer, this is
the one type of PLR where it’s usually best to get the
transferable rights, so you can simply pass the product
along with the PLR rights intact.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_David_ThoreauJust a bit more background:
Henry David Thoreau (born David Henry Thoreau; July 12, 1817 – May 6, 1862)[1] was an American author, poet, naturalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, historian, philosopher, and leading transcendentalist. He is best known for his book Walden, a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings, and his essay, Civil Disobedience, an argument for individual resistance to civil government in moral opposition to an unjust state.

Thoreau’s books, articles, essays, journals, and poetry total over 20 volumes. Among his lasting contributions were his writings on natural history and philosophy, where he anticipated the methods and findings of ecology and environmental history, two sources of modern day environmentalism. His literary style interweaves close natural observation, personal experience, pointed rhetoric, symbolic meanings, and historical lore; while displaying a poetic sensibility, philosophical austerity, and “Yankee” love of practical detail.[2] He was also deeply interested in the idea of survival in the face of hostile elements, historical change, and natural decay; at the same time imploring one to abandon waste and illusion in order to discover life’s true essential needs.[3]

He was a lifelong abolitionist, delivering lectures that attacked the Fugitive Slave Law while praising the writings of Wendell Phillips and defending abolitionist John Brown. Thoreau’s philosophy of civil disobedience influenced the political thoughts and actions of such later figures as Leo Tolstoy, Mahatma Gandhi, and Martin Luther King, Jr.

Thoreau is sometimes cited as an individualist anarchist.[4] Though Civil Disobedience calls for improving rather than abolishing government – “I ask for, not at once no government, but at once a better government”[5] – the direction of this improvement aims at anarchism: “‘That government is best which governs not at all;’ and when men are prepared for it, that will be the kind of government which they will have.”[5]

[edit] Early life and education
He was born David Henry Thoreau[6] in Concord, Massachusetts, to John Thoreau (a pencil maker) and Cynthia Dunbar. His paternal grandfather was of French origin and was born in Jersey.[7] His maternal grandfather, Asa Dunbar, was known for leading Harvard’s 1766 student “Butter Rebellion”,[8] the first recorded student protest in the United States.[9] David Henry was named after a recently deceased paternal uncle, David Thoreau. He did not become “Henry David” until after college, although he never petitioned to make a legal name change.[10] He had two older siblings, Helen and John Jr., and a younger sister, Sophia.[11] Thoreau’s birthplace still exists on Virginia Road in Concord and is currently the focus of preservation efforts. The house is original, but it now stands about 100 yards away from its first site.

Portrait of Thoreau from 1854.Amos Bronson Alcott and Thoreau’s aunt both wrote that “Thoreau” is pronounced like the word “thorough”, whose standard American pronunciation rhymes with “furrow”.[12] In appearance he was homely, with a nose that he called “my most prominent feature.”[13] Of his face, Nathaniel Hawthorne wrote: “[Thoreau] is as ugly as sin, long-nosed, queer-mouthed, and with uncouth and rustic, though courteous manners, corresponding very well with such an exterior. But his ugliness is of an honest and agreeable fashion, and becomes him much better than beauty.”[14] Thoreau also wore a neck-beard for many years, which he insisted many women found attractive. However, Louisa May Alcott reportedly mentioned to Ralph Waldo Emerson that Thoreau’s facial hair “will most assuredly deflect amorous advances and preserve the man’s virtue in perpetuity.”[15]
