How do you just start writing? (9 Tips)

February 2, 2022 by cmwrite

Especially when you’re not a writer?

I’ve written most of my life, and I’ve done it professionally for more than 15 years–including editing trade magazines, working in journalism, advertising, and in-house at companies. Here are my suggestions for how to just start writing.

Note: You might be feeling overwhelmed or lost, but don’t worry- there are plenty of ways how to start writing that doesn’t require a lot of experience or formal training. In fact, many great writers weren’t born writers–they learned how to start writing over time and with a lot of practice.

How do you just start writing? Here are a few tips that can help you get started:

1. Start small

Don’t try to write an entire novel your first time out. Start with a short story, essay, or poem. This will help you get comfortable with the process and make it less intimidating.

Blog Post Outline (Free Template)

Free download of the Notion template.

Do you travel without knowing where to go?

Will you head in the general direction but not plug the address into Google Maps?

That’s cool for a little while. Kinda freeing. But eventually, you’ll get frustrated. Especially if you do that each day.

The same could be true for writing.

An outline keeps you on track.

It keeps you focused and provides a blueprint for how the article should proceed.

By thinking about this on the front end, it will improve the structure of your story, and help you think critically about how the blog post will unfold.

It saves you time, as you’ve already generated and thought about the points you want to include, which makes the actual writing much faster.

How Long Should Your Blog Post Be?

December 27, 2021 by cmwrite

Just because it’s the Internet doesn’t mean your article should be as long as possible.

Editing and revision are still crucial.

There must be a sweet spot, somewhere in between 280 characters, and the reading time of a popular longform essay.

So let’s think about: how long should a blog post be?

The classic answer is: “It depends.”

And it really depends on the *channel* you’ve picked for your content.

Medium is than LinkedIn.

LinkedIn is different than a random Google search.

Google is different than Twitter threads.

But there is a point of diminishing returns, especially with social sharing.
