A couple of days ago when I was sitting in front of my computer with an intention to write another post as part of my Online Business Models Explained series an idea struck my mind. I wondered what does writing a post from start to finish look like from an observer’s perspective, so I decided to record a time-lapse video of the whole process.
What you’re about to see now is this particular video (only sped up significantly). It takes you from a blank piece of digital paper, to fully written, edited and proofread blog post (which will be published in just a couple of days, by the way).
Why am I showing you this? Well, I think that it might be interesting to see how other people go about creating new articles, and what the process looks like exactly.
This sped-up version is a lot shorter than the actual process because I’m sure that watching it at a normal speed would be exceptionally boring.
What do you thing about this video? Are you writing content in a similar manner, or maybe you tend to write different blocks of text and then align them to form a complete piece? Or maybe something entirely different?
Hi there! I'm Karol. I was never good at elevator pitches so let me just tell you like it is: I make a living by using my blogs as business tools (directly and indirectly). Over the last couple of years, I had the privilege to work with some great people and publish my articles on sites like: About.com, ProBlogger, Freelance Switch, Quick Sprout, Lifehack and many others.

Now thats a good post idea
Without deleting so much you would have another post right there, happens to us all
Yes, the need of doing some heavy editing is something I’m kinda struggling with
