How to Write 5000 Words a Day: 3 Irrefutable Rules

by

The Apple Friendly Writing Desk with Thunderbolt Mac

I am not doing NaNoWriMo, the brilliant writing challenge of November in which thousands partake. I should be though. But this November, I am writing 5000 words a day into my own non-fiction ‘novel’.

I am writing my next book and digital product, How to Crack the Code to Get Promoted (at your corporate job) and apparently, I have a lot to say on this topic. Lucky you, if you want the little-known secrets that no employer tells you but badly wishes you knew so you stop making the obvious mistakes and start closing the gap between what you need to do and what you think you need to do to get that darn promotion and move up the ladder already, but I digress.

Do you need a niche to be a successful blogger?

The short answer is no, you most certainly do not. But it’s a complicated question so let’s dig in deeper, shall we?

Before we get to digging though, can I just put a disclaimer here saying I happen to love the idea of a niche as long as it does not limit you.

I also love niche blogs – the bloggers focus on a specific subject of interest and become a voice of authority in that and so as a reader, I feel safe learning from them while indulging in their expertise and attention.

To top it all off, I am enjoying emotional and monetary rewards of an accidental niche myself so all in all, niches can be very good, but there is a bigger question I want you to explore first before you go running to find your perfect niche.
