Weird writing habits that get the job done

Published: Wed, 08/17/16

I got an email yesterday from a bloke wanting me to talk more about “writing” and not so much mindset, marketing, persuasion, selling, yada yada yada.

Sigh.

As you wish, my little fledgling.

Here are some not-so-interesting (and kinda weird) writing habits I have.

Your milage may vary using them.

So, do with this info what you will:

* I write my novels in bed

* I often listen to the same song on a continuous loop while writing

* I think way faster than I can type so my first drafts (of any writing — novels, emails, sales letters, and on on, and so forth) are unreadable and unintelligible to anyone but me

* I’m paranoid about boring people

* I’m even more paranoid about boring myself

* I can write okay but I suck at spelling so I don’t worry about spelling words

* I can speak okay but suck at pronunciation so I don’t worry about how I’m pronouncing words

* To motivate myself I simply remember 99% of people aren’t willing to write an email designed to sell their product every day — they could if they wanted to (lame excuses notwithstanding), but they won’t, so there really is no competition

* I am not afraid to use the pronoun “I” in my emails and copy…

That’s it for today.
