What Do You Write?

People think all I write are grants and evaluation reports.  It's true that in a typical month I'll write hundreds of pages for grants or program evaluation reports, but it has occurred to me recently, that I write so much more than just those things.

Here's a sample of the different things I write on a typical day, in addition to grants and evaluation reports:

• Journal entries (I journal just about every day.  It keeps me sane.)
• Blog posts (Two blogs now, this one and The Grant Goddess Speaks)
• Blog comments (I read over 20 blogs every day, and I often comment)
• Twitter posts (Two accounts - grantgoddess and veronicarobbins
• Facebook status updates (For my status as well as for our Creative Resources & Research and Grant Goddess pages)
• Numerous text messages to my husband, son, employees, and friends
• Notes from client meetings
• Email (about 100-200 a day, depending on how busy we are)
• Miscellaneous other social media and social bookmarking updates (Buzz, Digg, etc.)
• To do lists
• Calendar updates
• Poetry (Shhh....that's my secret)
• Book reviews (started doing this more often on Amazon, have been doing it for a while on other sites)
• Sentences for my 6 year old to copy and/or complete
• Articles (posted around the web and sent to hard copy publications)
• Press releases
• My next book (yes, I have a couple in the hopper.)
• Web page content for GrantGoddess.com)
• Letters (yes, I still write letters to a few selected friends...real, old school, stamped letters...crazy, huh?)

I'm sure I have forgotten a few things, but you get the point.  I'm writing all the time.

How about you?  What do you write?
