How to create compelling content

Stop Twittering.

Get off MSN.

Close down Skype.

Close that Facebook tab.

Switch your phone off, or at least put it on silent.

Leave your RSS reader unread (or, even better, mark all as read).

Don't go clean the kitchen.

Don't start tidying your desk.

Don't google anything.

Just... WRITE YOUR DAMN BLOG POST!

[says the person who constantly does all of the above. No wonder I don't have time to actually write for or promote my blogs properly!]

It is a vicious circle isn't it? Reading and staying in touch with the online world can really inform your writing and help spread the word about the great content you would write if you could just get off the blessed things!

They are *too* much fun imo! :)

[Marylin]

Exactly, it's so hard to get the balance right isn't it?

[Emma]

Ah, that's where I've been going wrong! Just getting started still really and I've discovered twitter....oops!

[Marylin]

It's the love/bane of my life too! So easy to get lost in conversations and links! :)

[Livi]

Lol! I need to take this advice sometimes!

[Marylin]

I should really take my own advice a lot more often too... lol :)

[Tilly]

I'm terrible too. It's not just the blog post - no housework gets done either!

[Marylin]
