Do you have ads on your site? Where do you find sponsors? One option is to use private sponsors, as opposed to one of the popular affiliate sources. I’ve done this in the past and it’s worked out okay.
On the Working Writer Facebook page yesterday I asked you to share a favorite (or popular) blog post. K’Lee Banks was the first one to respond with her post about “Exercise – Your Creativity!”
One of the most common questions I get from writers is how do you write so many blog posts daily? I have several blogs and also write for clients. Besides the time aspect, which we’ve talked about before (I write in time blocks), I have a lot of places that I get ideas from.
