So, What Do You Write?
Answering the inevitable question.
As soon as someone hears I’m a writer, the first question is always, “Oh, cool. What do you write?”
Usually followed by, “Would I have read your work? What books have you written?”
And while I have, in fact, had a couple of books published, they are my single lowest part of my income.
So, let’s dive into my answer to “what do you write?” and see how it stacks up against how you answer that question and maybe find a better answer together!
What do I write?
Well, I write books. I’ve had 2 published under my own name and a few others I’ve ghostwritten.
I write my own blog posts. I have a blog with over 4k followers, a LinkedIn blog with over 2k followers, and other smaller platforms.
I write articles. I have ghostwritten a ton of articles and blog posts for clients, written articles under my own name for various publications, and help clients write and maintain their company blogs.
I edit books, which includes writing suggestions and content changes in developmental editing. I love editing books, it’s probably my favorite part of what I do. I edit nonfiction, fiction, and even children’s books.
