I’m with you. It’s definitely easy to find reasons not to do it; that’s for sure.

Thanks for taking time to share Sandy!

And that is why I do not post every day!

Thanks for the comments Ed. Of course, everyone is different, but the forced schedule has been the only thing that has worked for me. I didn’t have one for most of my first year, and it showed. My production was erratic and much lighter.

Definitely save those posts for later! One goal I’ve had for awhile is to have a number of non-time sensitive posts queued up for emergencies. Of course, that would require actually getting ahead! So, I’m not sure when that will happen. 🙂

I couldn’t imagine writing 365 days a year, if I only produced business related content. I’ve written my fair share of posts about social media, but they just “come to me”. Trying to do it more than once per week, would be a stretch.

Thanks again for the motivation and I’m glad to have visited this posting.

Wow, Brian that is incredibly impressive. 1,072 consecutive days in a row — it is hard for me to even fathom. Kudos on maintaining such amazing consistency! And I know what you mean, I can completely relate to that feeling when you’ve done something so long that you don’t want to break the streak.

All the posts I mentioned were worth reading — four really sharp folks with strong ideas. While the arguments could be applied to fiction (from both sides), I would say the focus in all cases was on “content marketing” i.e. business-related content.

Keep up the good work! Are you going to buy yourself an ice cream or something at 1,500?

I liked your post, especially the parts about how tired you were and your day. I can relate to writing under those circumstances and for me anytime a writer grants us readers a look into their life beyond the keyboard, I am thrilled.

I haven’t read any of the posts you mentioned, yet, but I’m sure they make some good points. That being said, for me, I have to write every day or the streak will end, I’ll lose interest and likely never write again. That is just how I am. So, if I want to continue to write a couple of novels a year, and I do, I have to blog. It is sort of like an addiction.

Love hearing that Popsy! Thanks so much for taking the time to let me know.

Have a great weekend, and I hope things sort themselves out for you!
