Writing is a bit like Zen.
You already have it inside you, waiting for you to REALIZE it, unlock it, and unleash it.
But in the mean time everyone, the whole wide world, social media, your friends, your family, your gurus ..

This might got you confused a bit, read on.

Ofcourse they're gonna tell you your writing is shit (haha heck, I just did), and then they gonna position themselves as the authority to sell you their bs courses and what not.
Lets take a step back, and peel off the layers of why one's writing is utterly shit (again my writing was utterly shit, too!), and let's pull no punches and DIVE DEEP, I mean I've literally heard them all, being in this writing world for almost a decade now.
One big one is you don't have a writing degree. Right?
And the twittersphere and all those marketeers made you believe you havent read ALL the copy books.
Or You're not a writer. They/You identified you as such.

You didn't consume all the writing courses out there, arent part of writing groups (I have been for five years, it sucks monkey balls, just wait and Ill tell you why), didnt go to The Writing Academy of whoever made you King and gets to call shots that you're a writer.
You didnt get The Writing Guru's Seal of Approval.
Finally, your portofolio isnt big enough, broad enough, you dont have enough experience under your belt and it's gonna show.

Well, the above can partly be true but it's not the real underlying sickness, the big bad villain of the movie or show everyone has put you on to.
Now I'm gonna come out with the secret, which is not so secret, since you've been reading my stuff for a while now, and the above, and it's quite there in plain sight, really, if you know about it.
There is no EXTRA thing you need to make your writing sound better.

All the above problems mentioned actually boils down to just one big fat problem:
YOURE TRYING TO SOUND LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.
(heck, I revealed this at the beginning)
Now you're gonna wonder, if I DONT SOUND LIKE everyone else ..

Why would this help my landing pages convert better, make me sell more, make more stories more crisp, make it soar more, why would it MAKE ME a GODDAMN WRITER?
Well just think about it. You were listening, to others .. trying to Sound like them .. emulating them ..

You don't sound like that.
And your audience, your reader, your prospect, whoever the f you are writing to, they pick up on that. They sniff that.

Like a pig sniffs truffles, or a shark a drop of blood in the water even if its thousands of miles away, or a woman who knows you're G (haha I had to).
The thing is youre putting on a mask, a facade, a show, and you KNOW deep down, in any kind of marketing, selling, persuading, heck even in REAL LIFE, if you put on a phoney baloney bs performance people are not gonna like you.
Much less RESPECT you.
Much less RESPECT you.

And since we talking about the Answer, well the answer is simple.
STOP WRITING, Stop Sounding, LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.

And start sounding like yourself, find your inner writing voice - nothing woo woo, floaty, nothing bs - Exactly How I say it,
USE your Writing VOICE. Sound like yourself.
If you can talk, you can write.
Remember all those times you told cool bar stories to your friend?

Well, you WERE a Storyteller and The Stories Flowed. Why? You SOUNDED like yourself.
Everyone wants to be the people who sounded like themselves.

Stop being like everyone else. Everyone else is already doing that.
Start being like yourself. Start sounding like yourself. Listen to your own inner writing voice. It's already there.
In fact, it was already waiting for you.
I got you all the way to the end, haven't I?
