February 8, 2010
For a variety of reasons, I need a break from the computer today. So in lieu of something original, I’m pointing you to seven short blog posts I read over the weekend. Each made a good point–each is very useful.
I’ll be back to nag, push and inspire you on Wednesday!
So Many Blogs, So Little Time
- Dealing with other writers’ good news–when we don’t have any–can be tough. For help with this, see “Jealous Much?” Part I and Part II
- Are you an early riser to get a jump-start on your writing day? Good–unless you’re robbing yourself of one vital thing. See “Sleeping Enough is More Important that Early Rising.”
- Are you tired–or heading toward burnout? See the twelve phases of burnout and how to recognize it: “Avoiding Burnout”
- Is technology and social networking robbing you of needed study and writing time? Read this shocking report!
- Should you blog or vlog? Read “Purposeful Blogging.”
- Why does “write what you know” mean “write with authenticity” to this agent? Read it here.
