D. Keith Robinson has two posts every overworked blogger must read: Be A More Productive Blogger & Be A More Productive Blogger 2. A few quick takeaways:
- Set aside time for writing (or podcasting, etc.) and stick to it.
- Create (and stick to) a publishing schedule.
- Take advantage of creative highs.
- Read.
- Don’t fear failure.
- Don’t get too hung up on grammar (or pronunciation if you’re a podcaster).
- Try something new.
- Break longer posts up into several smaller posts.
My favorite?
- Think of your blog as a knowledge management repository.
I’ve found that I do use my blogs to keep track of links, ideas, conversations, etc. It’s good that way.
