I write a lot.

As an indie publisher, I have to. I don’t really want to go back to freelance writing full time so if I’m going to be my own publisher I have to churn out the content.

Yes, I said churn.

I know there is this ongoing debate about quantity vs. quality, but for me, there is no debate. The only things I have full control over as an indie writer is the amount of content I produce and how aggressively I market my work.

That’s it.

Since I don’t want clients, I write a lot instead.

And because I’ve spent years writing 500-word papers every week in high school, writing 10,000-word term papers in 24 hours in college and churning out 5 to 10 articles a day to make rent as an adult, I also write pretty quickly.

So writing 3000 to 5000 words a day is a walk in the park for me.
