Nothing To Write About
What do you write about when you do not know what to write about. Thoughts all over the place refusing to converge into a single idea.
Whoever said writing was easy - maybe typing is but writing does not quite seem to be. I suddenly realize that writing is not only a skill, it also requires a presence of mind.
Good news is that this gives me a new perspective about writing. I have often found it easy to write, and that was because I used to write when I had a thought, more out of leisure rather than out of responsibility. But with a new-found love and in my new world of blogging, it appears I now have to stimulate thought; consciously.
I used to have a senior colleague at work who called the whole internet, blogging and social media experience as "throwing ideas into space." He just couldn't comprehend how folks got online to say "just anything."
Nonetheless, this experience is a good food for thought. It reveals the demands of my new-found hobby, business and life.
Bracing up for the journey ahead.

Most times, writing is an acquired skill and requires lots of time to attempt to perfect, Taiwo!

When writing remember you are writing to your friend with help so write as you would speak with caring help that stimulates their ego and spirit towards action.
Write about your wishes and your best interests and hobbies.

Hello Taiwo and we wish you all the best.
When I have trouble writing, I go and do something else and take a notebook with me.
Ideas will start to pop in your mind, write them down straight away and you will soon find that you have material that you can use.
All the best and have a great day.

Hi Darren & Nicola, thanks so much for your best wishes.
I have started carrying around what I'll call my 'idea journal.' That way I can pen my thoughts as they come and flesh them out later.

Good Morning Taiwo,
When I started I had difficulty writing a post of more than 600 words.
Nowadays it has become a lot easier and I am sure that will happen to you too.
One day you will start writing and suddenly you have done a post of 1500 words, just like that.
