In response to a comment on one of yesterdays posts, I thought I would share my thoughts on developing your craft as a writer and how that will help you increase the amount you write without increasing the time it takes.

Writing is like any other skill, it stakes practice. Some have a natural talent, but, even with a natural talent, practice will make that natural ability shine. Think of athletes, even if they have a seemingly natural gift, they still have to practice for hours to try and perfect it, when they don’t practice as much their ability is never quite enough to keep them at the top.

Writing multiple posts a day seems beyond many bloggers, but again its really just a matter of practice. I write twice a day here, but I also write in several other places too. I write for businesses, as well as for my own business. I write strategy documents, I write Social Media plans, and sometimes I write just for fun. I write online and I write offline with pen and paper.

By writing in different formats, in different mediums, it makes your brain develop the sense of writing as a natural occurance instead of something that has to be forced. By writing in different ways you develop a depth and a character to your writing that will differentiate you from other writers.

What different forms of writing do you do?
