Resolve to Write More This Year 5 Important Articles About Writing

Resolve to Write More This Year 5 Important Articles About Writing For a long time I was an aspiring writer. Which means I didnt write much. Sure, I aspired as hard as I could, and yet my quill produced nary a paragraph. Of course once I got serious, I stopped aspiring and started writing. Perhaps you, too, aspire too much, write too little. If so, then maybe this is the year to  get serious. Here are five articles Ive written about writing to help inspire that change. 1. How to Improve Your Writing: 3 Tips. The three most important tips Ive learned about writing over the years. 2.  Create Your Masterpiece, a 16-Step Guide. I wrote this essay with my friend Julien Smith, the New York Timesâ€"bestselling author of  Trust Agents. 3.  Making Money as a Writer Is a Curious Thing. In this  interview from Micropublisher magazine, I discuss earning a living as a full-time writer. 4.  Steal This Blog Post. Thoughts on copyrights in the digital age. 5. How to Publish an Indie Book. A six-part, in-depth essay/podcast series that Colin Wright and I created to help people follow our publishing recipe. Bonus: 20 Recommendations for Your Blog.
