November is national novel writing month, and for many people that means signing up over at the NaNo site and gearing up for the challenge, receiving pep talk emails and following the progress of your fellow writers online. The challenge has inspire...
Writing and Memory
A question that pops up in my search stats fairly often is "Does writing really help you remember?" I've even answered the question generally, on my search engine question blog. I think it's clear that, in several respects, the answer is "yes". Bu...
Submission Guidelines...Take 'em or Leave 'em?
I've written before about the rules an aspiring writer can ignore and the ones he can't. Some of the ones that can't be ignored may seem pretty silly (in fact, they may be pretty silly), but at the end of the day it doesn't matter. If your excellent ...
What if Writing Happened Out Loud?
This evening, I took my daughter and a number of her friends to see the remake of Fame, and during the movie something crystalized that's been nagging at me for quite some time: writing is the only art that occurs almost entirely internally. When a...

Interesting start to a discussion on page content and SEO, but needs expanding and a breakdown of what does work, and what is needed.

Well done! I adore how you continuously, throughout your whole article, encourage novice and everyday writers to follow their instincts by not relying heavily upon advise from the dramatic and negative writer.
I have always found them to appear as if they are the suffering artist who can bring about a work they have written, yet at the same time, discourage anyone else. It seems a bit selfish to me.
This is a big world and we have room for all types of writers. I wanted to compliment you on your artsy and unselfish way of putting things into perspective.
Please visit me if you have some free time to relax and read.
Fabulous! Everything you wrote is what I would have said. I especially like your "blogging as journalism" post. Couldn't have said it better myself and I liked your response, because... ABA journal.... umm, whaaa? (but you said it more nicely!:) )
