How Do I Top My Last Post?

My previous post, "10 Things You Learn When Your Mom Rides a Motorcycle" has received over 7,000 views which is incredible. This blog has exploded practically over night. I am not sure how I can keep the momentum going.

I feel like the reason my previous post got so much traffic was because it found the right audience, biker mamas and others who have been around motorcycles their entire lives. I am not sure that I can continue to write for that audience. 

But that just means that I need to find a niche that I can continuously turn out solid writing pieces for. There are a few audiences that I think I can write for. Teachers, women, short stories, poetry, maybe even some young adult sci-fi/fantasy. I have always wanted to try my hand at a young adult novel.

I took some time today to clean up my office and make myself a comfortable work space. At some point I am going to go through the poems and short stories I have already written, polish them up, and get them ready to submit to some places. 

Then I am going to figure out how much I need to write every day if I want to publish my own novel within a year. 

And obviously I am going to continue to write here. I need to have a place to record my journey and to keep practicing.
