 I've heard that professional writers will purposefully end their writing day in the middle of expressing an idea, so that when they begin writing the next morning they just pick up with the thought they left off on, rather than starting a new idea from scratch.


That is a writing ploy that allows you to keep your momentum flowing so that you don't have to go through "blank page syndrome".

When you're doing article promotion, you need to produce a steady stream of articles each month. That means that you will be writing pretty regularly, and you'll have to find a way to contend with "blank page syndrome".

I've got some good information for you--in the same way that skilled writers make a cycle of writing energy by arranging their writing so that they never (or rarely) have to look at a blank page, so you can use what I call an "article skeleton" to rid yourself of the dreaded blank page syndrome.

An article skeleton is the bare bones of a future article. It can be a title, an intro paragraph, or just a few points to more fully elaborate at a later date.

If you can get in the habit of creating article skeletons, your will relieve much stress from the writing process, make it easier to write articles faster, and even have some fun with the whole process!

Here's how to make an article skeleton:

1) Set aside some time to spend on brainstorming. The reason of this session is not to write a complete article, but instead of come up with several ideas for potential articles.

2) You may previously have some ideas--quickly start writing down makeshift titles and major points to cover. I find that sometimes the intro paragraph writes itself. The power behind coming up with article skeletons is that the pressure is off--you do not need to do anything final. You are just coming up with ideas, possible intros, and points to cover.

The ironic thing is that once there is no pressure to make a great piece of writing, your writing will often improve along with your creativity. Many times when I look back at an article skeleton I find that I'm very happy with what I've written and don't need to change a thing. Then the little bit that I have previously written just propels me to finish out the article.

3) Come up with as many article skeletons as you can--don't spend too much time on it though. You should not be thinking too much about this or laboring over wording or crafting sentences. A good time limit for each article skeleton is about 5 minutes.

4) Get the skeleton in place and then set it aside for a rainy day.

5) When you sit down to write and are drawing a blank, look through your compilation of article skeletons. Look at the titles and see what topic catches your attention. When you open the draft and see that you previously have a head start, it's a huge relief! It's much easier to write the article once it's already started.

I've got several dozen of these 'article skeletons', and it's always a joy to open one up to find that the article is previously started for me. Articles get written so much faster when you don't have to deal with the "How should I begin writing this article?" feeling.
