Planning and keeping on top of blog posts can be a mission at times, especially if you have no idea what to post. The worst feeling in the world is getting the motivation to sit down and write only to realise you have no idea what you want to post this month. You spent hours working it out only to lose motivation.  This used to happen to me all the time, until one day, I decided to make a change. I tried countless different ways to organise blog posts for a year, but nothing seemed to work for me until I decided to make up my own way, and now I am two years ahead with blog post planning.  You don't need much for this either. All you will need is: Something to write your content out (I use OneNote to keep track but you can use anything you want.) The internet Time Your brain To start off with, work out how often you want to post on your blog. I will be using this blog for all my examples with actual posts for this year. I post twice a month at 1pm each day, so what I would do t...

 I have a lot on my plate. Between blogs, Wattpad, YouTube, novel writing and writing for a competition, let alone cleaning the house, cooking, appointments and more.  I thought I would let you guys in on how I manage to keep up with everything {I will have a fake example at the end}. every Friday I sit down in the afternoon before my partner comes home with my laptop, food planner, phone and Schedule.

I do this so I know exactly what to buy in my shopping but also so I know each day what time I need to start cooking and be done for the day by.  I don't have a set time I start work. I am typically awake by six-thirty when my partner gets up to go to work but some days I will go back to sleep and others I will start right away it really depends on how tired I am. I only work Monday to Friday now because my partner now has a job where he gets every weekend off so I have to get all my work done in a m...

I am a planner by heart; if something isn't planned, I freak out, and that is never good. My youtube videos are planned out months in advance, and my blog posts are planned out for a full year in advance; yep, you heard that right in December of every year, I plan out a full year worth of blog content. To plan out the blog posts, I use OneNote. On my OneNote, I have a folder titled blogs, and in that folder, I have three sections, one for each blog. My endometriosis and writing blog just has a list of posts, while the section for this post actually has pages labelled with each month and two posts on that page. I also have a page full of future ideas to write into next years blog post ideas. To find the blog post ideas, I typically come up with them throughout the year, ideas for me randomly spring into my head, and they don't just come on demand, the other way I get my ideas is by google search and looking at other peoples blog posts to get ideas, Pinterest, and posts full...
