If I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times: repetition is the very soul of the net. Be prepared to say the same thing over and over again, using different words when it makes sense to expand your vocabulary and with a different emphasis if the circumstances are novel. The ability to repeat yourself but still write things that are brand-new is a hallmark of a writer who can always recycle their own work and make it fresh and relevant again.
