Now all you need to do is the Write Thing!

Once the initial post is out there start carrying a notepad around with you to capture your ideas and work on your drafts.

Some Bloggers plan their posts way in advance and then go through several stages of revisions until the final product emerges weeks later.

Other Bloggers just sit down and type it in and hit publish.

I am somewhere in between these two extremes in that I generally know what topics I want to cover and have a brief outline floating around in my head before I write.

Editing is not the enemy - Editing is EVERYTHING!

Any writer worth reading has some editing process that they go through - it can be as simple as hitting the spell check button, or re-reading the post 3 times before publishing.

I know of one blogger buddy of mine who sends all the blog posts to a few close friends on paper, gets feedback then sends the edited version to her mother for final approval. Each to there own!

So get organized and get out there and do the "Write Thing"!
