Lazy Man's Guide to Writing Articles By Info-Publisher.com

Reviewer: Earl H. Roberts
If this guy can make money by writing, then ANYBODY can.
I don't like to review bad products. This one I offer only because the product has merit and perhaps the author will take the time to follow his own advice: "It doesn't mean you can slack off and not proof read and spell check your work."
The book is riddled with examples of bad grammar and the wrong words used in the right places.
Quotes, one typical example per line
havn't
more so then
I can find for free, if you're willing to dig for it
use that research as a bases for your articles
End of quotes lines, but these are only samples as the whole book is riddled with page stoppers.
Some of the most important links don't work, and must be typed into your browser, hoping you get them right.
As I said, the book has merit. Virtually every idea in the book can be picked up for free off the web, but the author has given the reader a good plan of action that can be implemented with ease. That doesn't go for the actual writing articles part; that is not explained well enough for producing good articles.
As for selling the book -- even after the grammar is corrected and after the spelling check is applied -- I would definitely have to think about it before asking any of my customers to put cash down for the product.

Lazy man’s way of writing, indeed, October 12, 2007
This e-book talks about a quick way of writing articles and making money from them. The author mainly talks about writing articles for profit from affiliate marketing and AdSense other ways to earn from articles.
There is a section here titled “How to Write Articles So Quickly and Easily You Could Churn Out 50 to 100 In A Day” that seems to be an over-promise. The author, though, gives good web link general resources for information for his article writing.
I particularly appreciate the section here about grammar and spelling. It points out that these are the main reasons why articles are not published. As a courtesy to the reader, writers should indeed thoroughly edit their articles to the best of their abilities before posting these in their websites or submitting them to article directories.
However, this e-book seemed to focus more on marketing than actual article writing. In fact, there were very few tips given in ACTUALLY writing the article.

He ain't know writer, but I think he knows what he's talking about!, October 12, 2007
Reviewer: Lorie Therese Locara
Honestly, he had me at the title.
I have been in the Internet moneymaking business for around just a year now, and I must say that the learning curve wasn’t that steep for me. I had been writing since age eight, so it wasn’t as hard for me to adjust to the lifestyle of writing for a living. But for a non-writer to be able to say that you can write, and make a killing out of it, sans the initial skills needed..
Before, when I was such an elitist, I would probably turn my nose up at such an atrocious claim. So would my “writer” friends who would turn up their noses at writing commercially. And yet this guy has a point. When he said, “People love a story, success story or even a failure,” he really hit the nail right on the head. No matter how you package it, if you just start telling your story, “talking” in black and white, you will have an audience. And if your story, no matter how crudely written it would have been, as long as the spelling and grammar are sound, you would soon gather loyal readers. And this, the author points out, is where the cash is.
If you can type, if you have a computer, if you are inquisitive enough, explorative enough, you are bound to make some cash online. If you have friends, if you have a blog, you will be able to make at least some gas money from the seeming drivel you spit out.
Take it from this guy. He’s no Franz Kafka, Deepak Chopra or Paulo Coelho, but I’m sure he makes enough cash to be able to back up what he’s talking about. ; )

Reviewer: Lynn Lopez
Ah, the lazy man's guide to writing articles, indeed! Although I wouldn't call this an extremely lazy approach--it does take quite a bit of work! I'm sure I won't be alone in saying that this is a fun e-book to read and will get you excited to start working on your own articles and start earning. This makes the whole process sound easy, so I say the author was pretty effective in writing this. There are plenty of tips to get you going, but it all boils down to how easy it is for you to produce your own content. The author also makes it a point to include some examples to get you started. This is probably not the best article writing guide out there, but it's fun, and an interesting piece of work, and could give you ideas, too. I recommend it, especially for those people who are struggling to come up with their own articles and need to know where and how to conduct their research.

Did this guy even graduate from high school?, October 19, 2007
Reviewer: Steve Johnson
The good:
- At least it's not a BabelFish Translation from Ukrainian to English!
- Some good ideas for article creation
- Some good resources
If you want to feel like you might have some shot at making money writing articles (and you're willing to believe this wasn't a lie or created with tongue-in-cheek), by all means, get it.

Catching Title, November 24, 2007
Reviewer: Jolanda Leu
This Ebook has a great catching title. However, the Author did not really deliver what he promised through his title. After reading this Ebook for three minutes, I felled lost and did not want to read further. It has many links which do not work, and this is annoying enough to stop anyone from wanting to find out more.
To soften my review up just a little bit. I feel the Author did make an attempt to give information. Maybe he was dealing with too much excitement while writing this Ebook? Hopefully he will rewrite the Ebook with working links, and not mislead people with the title.
