What conditions do you require???

As writing article goes, it's a bit problematic for me because I'm publishing blogs with multiple sections. And so far, I have decided to write for myself. But while doing that, I am aware that I am performing at least two roles: editor, writer and also copywriter. So, the first decision I need to make is as an editor. I ask, what can the readers expect from the articles I publish in terms of solving their problems? I usually limit the answers based on a certain "catchy" theme I want for the specific issue. Once I decided on the major theme, that's the time I break it down to several pieces based on the purpose of each section. I even decided on the ideal word count for the pieces to be delivered. So, the writer is left with the responsibility of just fleshing out certain major ideas with specific keywords are word count. To further make the writing process efficient, I already decided as editor the structure of the pieces. The first paragraph states the problem and the proposed solution. The second or next paragraph merely reinforces the chosen solution with reasoned arguments. The last paragraph concludes the piece are repeats what was said in the first paragraph with links added. I managed to keep the copywriting work in the background using policies like using specific keywords on the title. So, to answer your questions about the writing process, and so on, I have consciously divided the writing process into the work performed by editor, writer, copywriter or some other specialist like a link builder to insert the Amazon links to a specific book. Even though I still perform these roles now, I don't allow myself thinking like a writer trying to write a Pulitzer prize winning piece. I write as if I had a superior or boss who dictates to me what kind of piece I need to write. Anyway, am I making sense?

mr pearl, Although the environment plays an important role before I begin writing, but I have come to learn to write in different and unusual sort of environment. I could be sitting on my couch quietly, I could be in the bus or I could be in the toilet when I start writing. The location and environmental factors were not as important to me as the motivation to write when the idea comes. Sometimes the right words do not flow, but I always tell myself, I can edit it later. So the important thing for me is to get the article going. If I can't get them in full sentences, I would jot down some points first, then elaborate. Do not pressure yourself by saying that this is going to be the greatest article I will ever write and then unable to come up with a single word. Let go and just write!

I can't recall ever having legitimate writer's block in the sense that I got it and my writing went full stop. I have been plagued by everything from procrastination to garbled brain syndrome. But I just relax, close all my pages, look at something else for a few minutes, and don't think about "writing" at all. Then I'm good to go.

peace of mind and a lot of imagination. sometimes we need something else like inspiration. and to be contented!

hi.. I have a great problem on concentration when I'm writing.. sometimes, my mind wants to say so many things but my hand don't know where to start writing.. so I lose concentration with that.. but there are times that my hands dont stop on writing.. so I take that opportunity to write anythinh I think of...

Less distractions I guess. I usually write every night when everybody is already sleeping.

I can't write at home. I just can't concentrate there. This means that there are days that I have to go to my coffee place and usurp their internet while I drink their coffee. I also have to be alone. I sat with a friend who was also working, and I found myself doing other stuff or spending more time on Facebook. This all goes to show that I work better or write more when I'm alone. Kind of a good thing.

I just need an idea and some time to spare and then I am good to go!

I do have a fear for a blank page...but a make a picture....an then think about the object of writing....maybe you can try that method too!
