Do you want to become a better writer? Silly question, eh.
The good news is that writing makes you a better writer. Just like practicing the piano makes you a better pianist, or riding a trail bike makes you a better biker.
A few weeks ago I asked a question on Write to Done: What Helps YOU Become a Better Writer? The suggestions the readers offered were so rich and varied that I decided to gather them all together for Copyblogger readers.
Well, actually Leo Babauta of Zen Habits fame didn’t give me a whole blog, he gave me half of his blog Write to Done in July 2008. At that time I was still a rookie blogger.
Only nine months earlier my son Sebastian said to me:
“Mum, I’ll make you a website for your birthday. But you’ll have to write a blog.”
“A what?”
I had no idea what he was talking about. Shortly after I started Goodlife Zen, the steepest learning curve of my life.
So, why did Leo Babauta give half his blog to an accidental blogger?
