Safe path to failure as a writer

There comes a time when a writer has to face facts. There are only two reasons for a writer to write. For love or for money. This site is about writing for money. If you love writing, that can be a bonus. It can also be a serious inconvenience. People who love to write often take pleasure in writing for nothing just because they can.

If you love writing for fun, do it. Have a ball. The following is for people who want to earn a living writing.

Here are 5 surefire ways to fail as a money-making writer:

1. Write for free. If you want to create a portfolio of your writing, blog or show your writing style. Don’t hand over your writing for nothing. It sets a price range in the minds of your potential customers and reminds them that your writing is worthless.
2. Do your overbooking. You can get so excited about having people willing to buy your writing services that you can say yes to everyone without setting a reasonable writing schedule. It’s better to say that I can’t get to work until next week (or next month) than to take on the job and miss deadlines.
3. Don’t keep records. If you don’t know where you’ve been, how will you know where you’re going? If you don’t keep an up-to-date tally of how much you earned and how much you worked, you could be in poverty. If you write 50 hours a week and earn $ 100, you are working for two dollars an hour. You have to increase your rates or find a faster way to write. Also, if you don’t keep records, how do you know who your customers were and how can you get in touch with them in the future?
4. Neglecting the investigation. If you rely on your memory for data or do your research online using blogs and articles for detailed information, you could be perpetuating misinformation. Make your writing rise above the crowd with impeccably pure facts, not a hodgepodge of outdated online bland information.
5. Ignore grammar. While people can get away with breaking some rules of good grammar, breaking the rules requires knowing them.

So who do I think I am?

Why should I tell you this? Because I have made many mistakes in my writing career. The reasons were simple for my troubled writing career. First of all, I wanted to be a novelist. The need to earn a living drew me into a technical world where my specialty was software training.

I kept writing as a side activity and teaching people how to use WordPerfect 5.1 (it was a long time ago). When the internet flourished, I learned about the need for web content and decided to write articles online. I did not keep records of my writing, clients or websites. It was something I did for fun and the money was useful.

I stumbled writing things that I could write and using my research skills and some of the programs I love to use, like Web Content Studio, but never gained any momentum. In other words, I know how to fail as an online writer, and I’m using my experience as a dilettante writer who played with web content to change my direction toward a more functional, higher-performing writer.

It’s all about focus

I focused on my ability to investigate, which is what I learned from my experience as a newspaper reporter: double-check all the facts, and as a master’s student, look for in-depth information. And thanks to three years of Latin in high school, I am very good with words.

The hardest part is avoiding shiny new object syndrome. I love reading about writing and writing careers and the huge earnings people make by writing long texts (for example). I have written press releases, non-fiction e-books, fiction e-books, articles, blogs, emails, and speeches.

And yet I was distracted by some of the fortune stories that could be made in other forms of writing. Lack of concentration. You could write a book on the problems caused by trying to be an expert in all trades and a master in none. But that would be just another distraction as I struggle to break free from old ways and finally become the writer I was meant to be – with a plan, dedicated record-keeping, and a really good wall calendar.
