Danny,

I have been very pleased with writing covered calls as a yield enhancer, in situations where I have already picked a target sell price. In this case writing the calls is almost like found money -- the only risks being a) I change my mind and wish I could sell at a different price, or b) the stock could pop up over my target, then dip back down before the option expiration causing me to miss a selling window.

I find that this risk is often acceptable in situations where I am truly committed to a target sell price.

Rick.
