2022 is still young and innocent as a baby unicorn. By the way, did you notice there are three 2s in 2022? 222! That means it’s going to be a butt-kicking year!

2022 will be a smoking hot year for writers as well. Check the six writing trends that will kick butts in 2022, and you will kick more butts with your writing.

1. Slave-writing for algorithms

Algorithms will learn new, effective ways to enslave writers. If you weren’t writing for the algorithm before, in 2022, you will.

Choose which platform and which algorithm you want to be a slave for. Then, give it all you got!

Some writers complain about algorithms. That won’t work in 2022. Now it’s all about enjoying the enslavement, not resisting it.

How do you enjoy enslavement? By writing for the algorithm. Find out what the algorithm of your choice likes. How often and what kind of content does it want you to publish?

Kiss your algorithm’s butt, and you will be kicking more butts in 2022.

2. Retro writing

Retro writing is an antidote to texting, Instagramming, and endlessly staring at screens.

Retro writing brings writers back to school in the 1990s. Maybe you were naughty and wrote on the toilet wall in the middle of a school day. Then someone wrote their reply on that same wall. That was like Facebook before Facebook!

I don’t know if kids still do that these days. I assume they don’t because they’re married to their smartphones. I wonder if they can even write by hand.

That’s why retro writing is such a big trend in 2022. It’s all about writing on the walls of public toilets with a ballpoint pen.

Write something that creates engagement. You want to get as many replies as possible.

Then, take a picture of your retro writing and post it on your social media with the hashtag #retrowriting.

3. Crypto-writing in Web 4.0

Writers couldn’t stop talking about NFTs and Web 3.0 in 2021. In 2022, online writing will move on to Web 4.0.

The old-fashioned way of writing was to write words and sentences. In 2022 and beyond, crypto-writing is the real deal.

Crypto-writing removes the words out of writing. Instead of words and sentences, you will post crypto-pellets on the internet. And by internet, I mean, obviously, Web 4.0. Web 3.0 is so 2021.

What are crypto-pellets, you ask. They’re small virtual pieces of data with hidden messages inside. The message is encrypted so that the reader receives it with telepathy.

Web 3.0 still relies on the written content on the internet. Web 4.0 works with telepathy.

You can send your crypto-pellets to millions of readers in real-time. The readers pay you with cryptocurrencies. The crypto-pellet measures the level of emotional impact your crypto-writing induces in the reader.

The stronger the emotional effect is on the reader, the more you get paid. The reader cannot refuse to pay. The appropriate amount of money will get automatically transferred from their crypto wallet to yours.

Crypto-writing will transform the way writers get paid for their work. It will also change writing itself. There will no longer be writing in the traditional sense, only tiny pellets of data.

4. Pet writing

Pet writing is one of the hottest writing trends this year. My pet snails and I are forerunners in this area. I’ve been running a 7-figure content agency with my snails for years.

In pet writing, your pet writes an article or a story and dictates it to you with telepathy. So, your pet does the actual writing. Your only job is typing the text on your computer. This saves you a lot of time and helps you increase your chance of success.

5. Plant writing

Plant writing is a new, rising trend. At the moment, there are only a few plant content agencies. One of them makes 6 figures.

Plant writing works the same way as pet writing, except house plants write articles instead of pets. Your house plant dictates a story to you telepathically. You write down the text and sell it.

6. Telepathy

I bet you already figured out by now that telepathy is one of the butt-kicking writing trends in 2022.

Crypto-writing, pet writing, and plant writing all take advantage of telepathy.

Writing is all about communication, and so is telepathy. It’s only natural to combine those and kick butts with telepathic writing.

These writing classics won’t change in 2022:

  • Writers writing about writing
  • Writers writing about how to earn money writing
  • Writers writing about writers who write about writing
  • Writers writing
  • Writers avoiding writing

Conclusion

2022 is the best year ever to kick butts as a writer. Now you can do that by:

  • Slave-writing for algorithms
  • Writing on toilet walls
  • Writing on crypto-pellets
  • Writing with pets
  • Writing with house plants
  • Telepathic writing
