Excellent article of so much value….thank you Bonnie. I wouldn’t say you provided hacks—but substance on what it means to want to be a better writer and allowing the process of what one produces to run its course.
I think the difficulty is realizing that what we think is value delivered could be a complete waste of time to another. I cannot ignore the signs of understanding my audience and looking for the reaction, heartbeat of how they perceive what I deliver.
Reading that and then continually producing excellent articles is very hard.
I too interacted with a “top writer” who told me nothing has changed for him since January…
I wanted to ask him so much more—but I could tell he’s another looking on outward forces changing their income rather than inwardly.
So I walked away.
Thanks for this—excelente piece!!!!! Bravo!!
