Write 50,000 Words a Month, Every Month

The Monthly Challenge Writing Series
It’s now December (Yikes! Already?). Last month was November and as all writers know, it was also NaNoWriMo, a month when thousands all over the world take up the challenge to write a 50,000-word novel in a month.

And of those thousands, some make it and some don’t. But of those who make it, it does prove that it’s possible to write 50,000 words a month.

But what if you could write 50,000 words every month? I don’t mean that you should write a novel every 30 days, but what if the 50,000 words a month meant all your writing including articles, blog posts, emails, freelance submissions and all the other writing you do every month, including book writing?

Can you imagine how great it would be and how much money you could earn from your writing if you could write fifty thousands words a month, every month?

And while that may seem like a daunting amount, when you break it down, it’s only 1,667 words a day, which is only one article or short story.

Keeping up a writing schedule like this can have a huge increase in your income. 

And if you’re thinking that writing this much every month is too much, let me tell you that the really successful writers produce much more than this every month, usually double or triple this amount. Writing over 100k words every month might sound like a lot of work, but these writers don’t find it hard at all. In fact they love what they do which is probably why they’re so prolific.

So if you love to write, take the 50K a month challenge and see the difference it makes.

Why Willpower Won’t Help You Write

Willpower: Use it to write more?
We’ve all heard of the word Willpower and we’re told that if you can’t achieve something, or can’t get enough writing done, it’s because you don’t have enough willpower.

But what is willpower?

Many believe that it’s some kind of separate entity. It’s something you can invoke to help you. All you have to do is believe in it enough and it will magically appear and you can latch onto it and become a writing marvel.

Some people believe that having will power is not to help you to do something, but it’s a way to help you restrain from doing bad habits like over-eating, gambling, smoking, and excessive alcohol consumption, rather than helping you engage in new habits.

If you want to write more and write better what you need is determination, not willpower. This is what drives people to do what needs to be done, despite emotional and physical opposition.

Determination gives you a can-do attitude to stick with something and see it through to the end.
And you already have determination within you. It’s not an outside thing, separate from yourself. It’s already yours. You just have to use it.

And to be honest, if you love to write, then you really don’t need much determination. You only need to be in the right determined mindset to sit down and start writing, because as we all know, starting is the hardest thing.

But once you sit down and start writing, the rest is easy.

So don’t think you need willpower to write.

Just have the determination to sit in your writing chair for an hour or two every day.

The writer in you will take it from there.

Proof That You CAN Write a Book a Month

There are so many disbelievers when it comes to the subject of writing a book in just a month. But it’s no surprise that those who say it can’t be done have never even tried, or they’ve given it a half-hearted attempt and quit.

Writing a book a month isn’t easy, but it’s not hard either. For those who want to do it, it’s not hard at all.


But let’s look at the math to see how do-able it actually is.


Say you wanted to write a 30,000-word novel. To do it in a month (30 days) you’d have to write at least 1,000 words a day, and that’s only about 3-4 pages.


Does that seem hard? No. 


Does that seem impossible? Absolutely not.


The mindset of writing a book is like the mindset of a marathon runner. To do either you need determination to see it through to the end.


Marathon runners are always determined. They train hard and when the day comes, they’re in the right mindset to do it.


Would-be authors on the other hand, aren’t determined and so they don’t train and don’t try.


But this month is November, which means there are millions of writers all over the world taking part in NaNoWriMo, the challenge to write a 50,000-word book in a month.


The determined ones succeed. The rest don’t.


What more proof do you need?
