Write Something Every Day

Date: Sep 24, 2009      Category: Blogging, Freelance Advice, General

I was looking through my daily list of assignments and realized that I write over 10,000 words a day. This is on a normal day consisting of blogging for a private client, Demand Studios, paid postings and articles I’m working on for Associated Content or Bukisa. On some days, I even add more work by blogging or working for private clients. AND I prepare articles to be resold on Constant Content.

I’d like to meet my daily goal of writing 2,500 words for Demand Studios. I’d like to achieve my second goal of writing at least 1000 words a day on Associated Content. With Demand Studios paying so well and on time, I push Associated Content aside to have more time for DS assignments. Writing for Associated Content though can be a relief, especially since I can write about celebrity news or any gossip that interests me that day. But I dislike Associated Content views because I feel like their daily views counter needs some tweaking. That is the only thing that discourages me from writing daily articles and publishing on AC consistently.

My other goal that I would like to achieve is daily blogging. A daily blog post here about freelancing and all of the helpful tidbits that I find along the way. Also, I’d like to have some time to blog every day on my pet project about reality shows. It’s such a fun idea but I can’t seem to find the time to do it all. Husband and child need to be fed and played with…

I do write every day, no matter how large or how insignificant a task may seem. I also realized something today. No matter how many words I write or how many articles I have written, I will have spelling and grammar typos. That is so damn annoying.

I’d like to say that the points of my post are that every writer should have goals, but they should also write daily. Even if you do not meet your daily writing goals, keep on typing those words! You do not have to write a 10,000 word masterpiece every single day. A 250 word blog post can do wonders for your writing career and it can help warm your fingers up in the morning.
