    How To Write Better

      Ok so here’s the deal. I’m checking out this new gizmo to really motivate the writing habit.

      See, people on forums and blogs that I read are invariably fessing up about the fact that they know they have to write / love to write / want to write but just don’t do it. For whatever reason.

      It could be that ‘blank sheet = blank mind’ kind of thing.

      Or maybe they have so many ideas popping into their head they don’t know where to start.

      For some it’s a matter of not feeling worthy ‘but so many people have written about this before and so much better, what have I got to contribute, who’d want to hear me say it” or some other variation of self doubt.

        2. Plug that phrase into your search engine of choice. You can filter your search by only choosing blogs or news items or restricting the recency to the last week, last month etc.

        Incoming Search Terms

          I had started to see this reference on blogs to “incoming search terms” and wondered what plugin people were using. Finally I checked it out in Google and found a guy who had done the same. He found premium products but discovered a tool called SEO Search Tagging 2 on the wordpress site. I installed it and then thought “what’s the best way to configure this little puppy?”.
