The Creative Wild Side!
A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away. Antoine De Saint-ExuperyCompare this to:
Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex…It takes a touch of genius – and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction. Albert Einstein
How to Prepare to Write an Article - Content Mktg.
Here is an outline of the process (which I mostly agree with) that I saw posted here
- - Topic and subject (1 hour)
- - Research and inspiration (1 hour)
- - Images with stats or custom made (2 hours)
- - Structure, framing, SEO, etc (30 minutes to 1 hour)
- - Body writing (no introduction first, totally agree – up to 5 days)
- - Title and introduction (30 minutes)
- - Correction and adjustments (1 hour)
- - Programming, scheduling and posting time (30 minutes)
- - Analysis (30 minutes)
That makes it 7 hours + article body writing time. Of course, someone in the flow can do it faster.
Key point for writers: Quality over Quantity.
