Thanks a lot for this entry and the quick tips. I have a tip for you too. Once a week, or once every two weeks, do write (and post) what you are passionate about. It helps to avoid writers block and it will inspire you (as well as your readers) to come up with fresh ideas for your everyday postings. You’ll be amazed at how people will react…

Sincerely,
Alecita

I am taking your advice about focus to heart. My agency is one year into our blog now, and although our growth has been strong (one of our posts recently hit 2,500 hits), we struggle with focus. I think it’s like someone telling me to write an ad. I ask, well, an ad about what? Who is your target? What is it about your product? It seems we need to practice what we preach with the blog too and get some tighter strategy.

Thank you so much Michael, I’ve learned heaps from you this year.

I’ve been writing since I can remember and I’ve been making money writing for the past 11 years.

There’s no such thing as writer’s block. If you’re not writing, you’re being lazy or you don’t want to write, for whatever reason.

Writing is as easy as talking. Your recommendation to “stop thinking and start writing” is the solution to “writer’s block” — which doesn’t exist by the way.

Good luck.

Sunday night seems to be a good, quiet writing day. I attended an event where Rohit Bhargava spoke, and he said his schedule was the same. He does 3 posts weekly and writes the Monday post on Sunday, and then at least starts the other 2.

And now that “Mad Men” is over, the evening is free!
