    Great writing reasource

    Great site on writing, with a slight focus towards writing really good, life-changing, insightful stuff (rather than with lists of misspelt words, etc). Publishes posts from a variety of guest writers, and there's always something interesting or inspiring in them. Focused primarily on non-fiction freelance writing, not fiction.

    Zen and the art of output maintenance There are many more million bits of advice on line about writing than there are successful writers. Writers write. Non-writers read about how to write. I've made my living writing in various formats for 25 years and hence I rarely recommend sites "about" writing. The only advice I have ever found effective is Mary Heaton Vorse's "Apply the seat of the pants to the seat of the chair." However, I am happy to recommend this new blog called Write to Done to you writers who need more encouragement. It is produced by the author of Zen Habits, one of the most consistently useful blogs online. Like any site about writing, it should take its own advice (you'd be surprised how many don't). This one practices the most important rule of journalism and blogging - get your reader's attention, and keep it. Examples: 12 Essential Tips for Building a Successful Blog I get asked over at my blog Zen Habits: "How have you become so successful so quickly?" I'm always sorry to tell them I don't have any secrets. I do the same things that other successful blogs have done. 5 Ways to Glue Readers to the Page Some writers arrest me on the spot and shackle me to their page. But others fail to keep my attention: I soon start playing with the cat or surf off to other sites. Use Reading to Become a Better Writer There are two ways to become a better writer, in general: write a lot, and read a lot. There are no other steps. How to Hold Yourself Accountable As a Writer "The difference between a job and a career is the difference between forty and sixty hours a week." [Robert Frost] Let's face it: there are plenty of days when writers don't feel like writing.
