Writer Fact Of The Month
Author Nora Roberts wrote 23 novels between 1982 and 1984. From 1991-2001 she wrote 68 books that all ended up on the New York Times bestseller list.
Those of us in the Writing business always hear anecdotes about extremely prolific writers, but it’s important to note that there are just as many legendary writers who have only created a small number of works in their entire lifetime.
The key takeaway here is to remember that quantity isn’t always the key to success. As a freelancer, remember to only take jobs on Scripted that you can reliably complete by the deadline. As you grow as a content writer, you’ll gradually be able to take on more work, but start small and move upwards from there!
The Scripted team is here for you, regardless of what you may need. Feel free to reach out to us at support@scripted.com if you have any questions or concerns.
