Writing is like Exercise

Social media is changing the skill sets needed to succeed. That said I think writing is more important than ever. From long form to short form, from using text speak to fitting something into 140 characters -- the better you can communicate, the more successful you will be. This applies to any career.

We've foisted writing links on you before. So we've been reticent to merely repeat our favorites or force the issue with an endless number of link-laden lists you'll check out once if ever.

But when pharma PR ninja Sarah Morgan brought one page per day to my attention, I knew I wanted to post about it.

One Page Per Day is great in that it challenges you. And it also eliminates excuses by being an easy to access spot for writing. Add to that the fact that all these pages stay where you create them and its utility makes One Page Per Day a great writing habit to form as it eventually will have some payoff above and beyond your skills.

Or maybe not. It doesn't have to turn into the next great American novel. What matters most is that you always continue honing your craft.
