How to overcome writer’s block

Written by: Andrew Rondeau

Article Overview: I personally, sometimes, find it difficult to just START writing. Other times, ideas and what to actually write just come to me and my fingers simply cannot keep up with my thoughts. But writing simply doesn’t come naturally to me. I do have to work hard at it and, like many others, I suffer from the ‘staring into a blank piece of paper’ syndrome: the anxiety of the writer’s block.

How to overcome writer’s block

This is a must have resource if you are serious about your blog. Whether you are running a blog for fun, to enhance your career prospects by showcasing your skills and expertise or have a blog to make money, article writing is what it's all about. Yet article writing is a skill that lost its way a bit. The telephone took over as prime communications tool from the written letter. People spoke more than they wrote. Then slowly but surely as the world shrunk and communication was now possible across all time zones and countries the written word became important again.

It started with emails and slowly morphed into the longer form the article for the blog or web site. Suddenly, in the last few years, the art of article writing has become relevant again and in fact in terms of a blog an all important skill. Something that is totally unavoidable.

You have to be able to write articles if you want to manage a relevant and interesting blog.

There is no choice. Sure you can get your articles from a reputable article writing service such as The Digital Archives. But at the end of the day, if you want to offer personal content you will need to write some of the articles yourself.

Why not learn how to do it properly?

This reasonably priced resource explains everything. It even has a chapter on what to write about and how to think of your target audience. It teaches you about title selection, keyword choice, format and presentation.

You learn how to overcome writer's block.

How to use your articles as an internet marketers.

Submit your articles to article directories to create exposure to your blog, use your articles to be part of social media and talks about how you can make money from your articles.

It is a one stop multi-media eCourse to your article writing skills and using those articles for maximum effect in your blog to market yourself or a business that you wish to promote through your blog.

There are great videos too that demonstrate a whole range of extra skills. They provide you with visual demonstrations on "What to write about", "Determining your target audience", "How to do research for your articles" or "How to format your article" amongst many more.

This is a resource for bloggers that is indispensable. You will wonder how you ever did without this eCourse. Because your education at school or college certainly did not teach you how to write articles. And you have discovered that article writing is the one skill you really need.

At the same time it is reassuring that this is something you can learn. You often thought that writing was a skill for famous authors and not something you could do. On the contrary, take this eCourse and work through the sections both the text and the video to get up to speed on how to write articles. Like an expert!

April Contest feedback - FYI, next competition should have a cut off time based on a timezone...say EST since that's the timezone your in Evan. Just a thought so that the competitors have some guidelines too. That was an Exciting April competition for me. Trying to maintain my spot and keeping the posts as helpful to the forum readers. It also got me to write more freely as I often get writers block.
Women's Newspaper - I did pick up this newspaper. I was happy to see something for us but a little disappointed that the main column writers were male! I would think that it would be beneficial to highlight female writers. Has anyone else checked this out?
Should I hire an editor or an agency? - Thanks for the advice. True, I cold just hire writers. That's what I've been doing for last few years. But that is becoming unmanageable. With 4 more writers I'll have to spend half of my day managing them. I'm not qualified to edit their writing and that is affecting quality. Finally, costs I'm incurring with wrong hires, re-training, etc. are soon going to be more than a full time salary for an editor. Ideally, I'd find an agency or an editor/writer that can provide this added level of guidance, quality control and writers management while still not costing an arm and a leg.
Should I hire an editor or an agency? - There is a third option: you can always hire your four writers from here, or better yet, hire a writer that will do some of the content/SEO work as well as serve as group editor. From off the top of my head as to whom might be ideal to fill the editor/head writer position. From what I've read of her experience and work ethic she could handle the role of a group editor as well as do some share of the writing. I know that she can also suggest a number of freelance writers as well as provide additional ideas thanks to her past work experience. Hire a pro that can do the job and can delegate and that way you don't have to worry about talking with four different writers all of the time. As for who else might fill the remaining three slots, there's more than enough talented writers sneaking around the forum (including myself), but it does sound like you should pick a head writer and then let them help you assemble your team.
Sabotage-ey! - As Bugs Bunny would say! I make most of my money from the Google Ads on my site. Over 90% in fact. But I could be making more if there weren't certain browsers that allowed people to block those types of ads. Very annoying. I totally sympathize with people who want to block popup ads. I block those myself and if any do get through I close them without looking at them because I resent the intrustion. But google ads aren't the same! They're just sitting there, easily ignored, but can catch your eye if there's something of interest there. I had gone to the library yesterday - I'd made some changes to one of my websites and I always try to check the end result on the different platforms to make sure that everything looks the same and still works.. and I noticed that the library system also blocked google ads. Very annoying...I just hope the vast majority of casual webusers dont take it into their heads to do the same...
