Editorial Calendars

Mike Sansone of ConverStations asks What's on Your Blog Editorial Calendar? Although the blog is aimed at business people, I think all writers, bloggers especially, can profit from his advice. I know when I began Writer's Edge almost three years ago, I was so afraid I wouldn't have enough to say (*snort*) that I made lists of items to discuss. Sansone says:

It's not unusual for a small business blogger to jump out of the gates with a good rhythm, then lose steam after a few weeks. Maybe it's because we get busy, or stumble over a blogger's writing block. But once we lost that rhythm, it can be difficult to regain.

See his weekly list of blogging items. The notion has potential use for a writer as self-inflicted deadlines and prompts, although I like his notion of using it as a guide not a religion. Customize to your type of writing.
