I hear about writer’s block all the time – in my online writing course, on my blog, even through private emails that only hint and whisper at the monster lurking under the bed. You’d breeze through engaging newsletters your readers can’t wait to open. It doesn’t have to be that way.

Sign up for a newsletter service and create an autoresponder email list called Success Goal. Add your own email to this list – make sure it’s your main email, the one you check most often. Write two emails to send to yourself. You should be laughing right now. But that’s not even the best part. How perfect is that?

I’ve happily signed up for all kinds of email lists. Just this: If you are trying to give yourself a shortcut by not asking for your clients’ permission before you sign them up for your sales list, newsletter, or any other form of unsolicited information, you’re shooting yourself in the foot. They could have asked.

Basically, you can do whatever you want: put it as a free download on your site, send it by email to your friends, frame it and put it on your desktop, dip it into chocolate and eat it while pretending you’re dieting.

But if you know you’re not sure what to write in emails to clients, if you’ve ever thought your website copy might not be very great, if you’ve ever noticed your blog doesn’t get many comments or that your newsletters never really get opened much…. You’re missing out. And you need to improve a critical business skill: your writing.

A paid newsletter is another way to deliver content. It can be just a “regular&# email or it can be a PDF (I tried to one like that and couldn’t keep on schedule and canned it—I’m considering private feed aggregation instead). People can and do pay for these kinds of newsletters. Has it worked?

Newsletters the same. Set those boundaries and start abiding by them strictly.
