Product reviews - not my thing - what do I do .?
I'm in the last level of my training, and while I should feel elated, I'm not ... I couldn't finish my training today, because I was prompted to write a product review ... And no product came to mind ... Nothing at all ... So I focused on sharing my blog posts on social media and creating a promotional campaign on Bing, since they offered me a discount for joining them.
but I'm stuck with my product review ... Did I choose a niche that might not include many products ...? Why can't I think of something?
i just barely managed to pay another month on premium while saving on food, and it's depressing me. My boyfriend broke up with me today, and while he is right in some things, I feel our connection hasn't been broken yet ...
I went home, thinking of what product to review, and giving it time until tomorrow, but I am still at a blank ... And I am a writer, I published 8 books ... How can I not know what to write about?

Oh dear, that sounds sad, and life altering.
You must give yourself time to grieve this loss.
I suggest that you go to the park, or wherever you can find a peaceful spot, and let nature sooth your soul. Do nothing but cry and cry, and remember all the good moments in the relationship. Your tears will water the fertile ground of your life and something new will grow.
Then breathe deep, and let it all go with the wind.
As for the review... I like what New Laurie suggested, to write an article that comes straight from your heart. Let it flow and see what you write. as a writer, you will create something awesome, I'm sure.
I hope this is okay with you, but I was prompted to say these words by something bigger than myself.
Know that they are genuine.
:)
Praying for your friend.
Thank you so much for your words, Kathleen! Yes, I went for long walks on the beach, connected with nature, cried, and today I finally started writing some content. I'm not sure yet where my article is taking me, so I stopped and decided to continue tomorrow. My boyfriend and I are still talking, I still have hope.
My friend is still missing and I think of him all the time ... But I am functioning again.
I'm definitely feeling more positive today.
A product review can be on anything at all. I do a lot of mine on books. If there is anything you are going to be selling on your website then write about that product.

Take care, Christine, Things will work out.
Sometimes we all hit that wall, and sometimes the best way forward can be to take a couple of steps back, Even sidestep it and move on to the next task write on another topic.
Best wishes you will get through this.

Dear Christine,
I pray for your friend and your situation.
As stated below, leave the review for now. There are ways to "workaround" things in situations like this. You will be fine. You got this.
Love,
Jessica
Hi Christine,
Sorry to hear about the situation you are in.
There probably is a lot going on in your mind right now. Nothing has to be immediate. Let go of thinking about the product review for now. Like Laurie says, skip the review for now. It can wait. You are an author. Besides the review, the boyfriend and the money situation what would you like to write about.
How is life in Mexico compared to life in Belgium. How long ago did you decide to move. I would think there is a huge difference between the two countries. Personally I would love to hear about it.
You have to breathe out before you can breathe in. Let go of the review for now. I am sure someone who has published 8 books will come up with a great article.
Do the review another time.
Wishing you the best,
Michael
Thank you, Michael.
I just received terrible news on top of everything else. One of my best friends was kidnapped yesterday ... I'm terrified.
Hi Christine,
I will pray for your friends safety. Please try to be strong.
Blessings,
Michael
I blogged about story writing this week Christine. The Antagonist was the Guzman El Chapo cartel run out of Culiacan in Sinaloa state. Now I wish I'd chosen another setting. I will pray for her and you.
Christine - maybe I can help:
Skip the review and write a different kind of article.
Seriously, it's not worth the angst. Just move onto writing a post in the style that suits you best. Make it great. Put some affiliate links in it. That will work, too.
Whoa, I just read through this....and this seems to be gold!! I think it connected some dots for me...Thanks!!

Think about the products that you have included in your website. The ones you trust and love and want everyone to know about. That makes it easier if you are already passionate about them.

That sounds good. Thank you 😊
