Monday, February 18th, 2008 |

IdeaIDEA: Publish short but meaty “executive summary” book reviews of business titles.

The premise, of course, is that busy business folk have very limited time and you’ll quite literally be doing them a favor giving them a quick but good snapshot of what a specific business book delivers.

Looking Back Before the Flood

Friday, February 15th, 2008 |

Idea IconBefore we start looking at a potentially lucrative flood of publishing ideas and ventures, it’d probably be good to take a quick look back at a few writing/publishing project ideas I posted and presented in months past.

These I can claim are Wordpreneur originals! (At least no one’s sent me any emails whining, “I wrote about these first, you dirty rotten idea stealing pond scum you!”)

A Flood of Publishing Ideas and Ventures?

Wednesday, February 13th, 2008 |

IdeasMaybe it’s just me, but if I see another website or blog on Internet Marketing, I’m going to hurl. OK, so it isn’t quite that dramatic an offense (who am I to speak, right?), but people, please, can we at least pretend to be trying for original and unique, not to mention truly useful and informative?

Writer’s Block? Reply to Emails

Wednesday, December 26th, 2007 |

Reply to Emails to Fight Writer's BlockA few observations:

“Writer’s Block” usually only happens at the very start of the writing process. Getting past it is the goal. That’s when the words start to flow.

Freezing up at the start is not uncommon. See it all the time, regardless of the complexity or simplicity of the writing task at hand. Even needing to write a relatively quick and short blog post can bring this on.

3 Easy Ways to Find a Niche

Friday, November 23rd, 2007 |

I would seriously doubt it if you told me that you’d never heard the advice, “If you want to succeed, find a niche and fill it.” The gist of it’s practically commonsensical nowadays. And not only applicable to business but what we write about.

The problem for some folks is: What niche?
