Congratulations on writing your first article! How was the experience? We hope it was great. There are a few things you need to keep in mind and we’ll share them with you in today’s post.

Don’t stop writing

Yes, you’ve written an article but you must not stop writing. One article is not enough. The world needs more of your beautiful writing, so continue. We know that it is likely your article did not quite turn out the way you wanted it to but it is not enough to give up.

Let people know about it

This one is important. It not good enough to write and then hide it in your compute folder or your journal. Your story is just what somebody needs to continue with life. Do you want to keep that away from them? Talk to publishers, open a blog, become a guest blogger; just don’t hide your creative abilities.

Don’t take negative comments personal

Most times new writers don’t know how to react to negative comments about their posts and so are easily affected by comments that are not favorable. Most of these comments are not personal so take what is important and move on gracefully.

Here’s to many more articles and books to be written!
