An idea for writers block !

4K followers

We have all been there haven’t we, sitting at the screen wondering how to start a post or thinking of ideas for articles.


One thing I always do every morning is check the news headlines to see if I can find something related to one of my niches that I can come up with an idea to write an article an article about.

I check regional, national and global and it’s definitely helped me when I’ve been stuck.

I’ve got ideas for my niche of Minecraft and also ideas in the business section of a news site for my WA niche.

Just thought I’d quickly share this with you as we all struggle at times!

Thanks for sharing.

no problem, your welcome

That’s a nice tip. I highly appreciate.

Your welcome

Any ideas which can help 'un-block' are more than welcome.

Very true John

Great tip Darren. I am amazed at how things around me all day long often prompt me with ideas. The notes section of my phone is very well used. ~Mark

Hi Mark

It is isn’t it.

Content of your website in my opinion can be varied with a niche especially when promoting WA.

Writing articles on what’s happening in the business world or lifestyle sector adds variation to your content.

Thank you Dal!

I am not a fan of the TV lately, I used to be! I find the news and repetition to stifling, distracting and depressing.

I am not one to bury my head in the sand either!

There is never one path that suits everyone. I am pleased that you have something that works for you.

My path is to take notes, through the day, just things that pop into my mind. This way, I am conscious of my thoughts, it clears my mind of clutter and when I write, it comes straight from my heart and it is original.

I am conscious that I do no regurgitate what anyone else has produced and this is always difficult, if not impossible?

A nice original post Dal and thanks for sharing!

Hi Wayne

Yes you should always have a notebook to hand, I hate losing a though or an idea.

I don’t watch the news on tv either as I have the same feelings as you but I monitor websites such as bbc news. I always keep an eye on the tech and business sections for headline ideas.

Once I have my idea I then research and plan what I am going to write.

You are right that articles must be in our own words.

Thanks for sharing your stragety with me.

Darren

Ok Darren, thank you again!

Much appreciated !

Wayne

Anytime buddy

Best wishes

I just set up some Google Alerts myself....

It’s on my to do list this morning!

Yeah, been there many times. Thanks for the tips.

No problem, there’s a good suggestion below about google alerts as well

Yeah, I'll look into it.

Same here, I’ve put it on my to do list

I have "Google Alert,"

Thank you anyway, for the above suggestion, and/or tip.

Try Google, you're get daily updates on any listing.

Hi

Yes I’ve just read itvon a post below, I’ll definetly check it out

Google Alerts (daily digest) for everything related to your niche.

Totally agree! I have several Google Alerts set up!

It’s simple yet so resourceful! Good on you ! :)

I will be looking at Google alerts right now

One more essential for me is Evernote. I put everything there...no matter how small the idea. Build on small ideas and they become big ideas...that lead to blog posts.

Alternatives include Google Keep, Awesome Note, One Note, Laverna, and Notezilla...there are tons more.

This and really strong coffee will have you avoiding writer's block like the plague ;)
