Balancing the needs of your audience with deadlines and other external factors can be especially challenging for writers. First, have patience for yourself and for others who work with you in the process. Author and editor Bart Tesoriero deals with very tight deadlines in a team environment so his ability to work well with others is vital. He advises other writers in similar situations to hold themselves accountable so their writing is as true as possible for their audience, despite the looming deadlines. And don't be afraid to push back when necessary to maintain that integrity. Tesoriero also believes writers should be serving the needs of their community and readers, which will lead to a more enriching and successful outcome overall.
