One thing that lacks in courses are illustrations and interactive demos.
We're working on new ones for Learn to Code From Zero With Godot.
This one's by @lumenwrites, for the physics nodes cheatsheet.

Do you have any questions about setting up a blog/website for your digital writing and selling your digital products?
I want to offer a free consultation to anyone who's interested in this stuff.
Let me know if you're interested!

Design your writing.
Instead of trying to invent your articles from scratch, think of it as a design process:
· Rsearch and collect great ideas
· Curate and distill the best ones
· Assemble them into an outline
· Convey them briefly and clearly

What is your one single biggest challenge when it comes to digital writing?
#ship30for30 #tweet100 #writing #writingadvice #writingtips
Solve the biggest problem you're facing right now.
· If you want to be a writer, but aren't writing every day - solve that.
· If you want to make money selling digital products, and don't have a product yet - solve that.
Everything else can wait.

You create great ideas for writing out of great ideas you're learning.
Everything is a remix. Don't worry about being original - just make connections between existing ideas, and build upon them.

Copywriting tip:
Don’t try to be clever.
Just give every good reason why people should do what you want and overcome every sensible objection they might have.

Two ways to create value as a writer:
• Create original and insightful ideas.
• Communicate ideas created by other people very well.
Either one is sufficient for a valuable post (or a book).

Ideas are the currency of writing.
Writing is not about typing text, it is about creating ideas, and you create ideas by building on top of other ideas. So the most powerful tool you can have as a writer is your own digital library of ideas.
Here's how to build it.
Easy way to decide which product you should work on first:
• Brainstorm several ideas.
• Create the sales pages.
• Offer a pre-order at 1/10th the price.
See which product people buy, focus on that, refund the others.

Writing hack.
Read about things that aren't related to what you normally write about and try to find connections that no one else sees yet.
Learning stuff feels fun and easy.
Doing well-understood stuff feels boring ("I get it").
Unless you realize that doing stuff is where the actual results and skills come from.
Then it's the other way around.

Don't worry about SEO. Write for human beings, not robots.
SEO is a very long-term and expensive strategy, unless you already have links pointing to your site - which you get by writing things people like (and sharing them on social media).

Imagine your reader as you write.
• Who are they?
• What problems do they face?
• How can you help to solve them?
Don't write for a crowd of people, write for an individual.
Make your reader feel like you're talking directly to them.
