Took a break now struggling to get back in the game
I haven't written a blog post in almost 2 months!!! And it's driving me crazy.
I've been super busy moving and trying to get settled in a new place. Now that I've logged back in, I'm struggling to find the drive to start writing again...and I'm not happy about that.
I've been contemplating where to start again, because it feels like I'm starting from scratch again. (I've only been a member since May of this year). I was on top of things for the 1st 3 months or so and posted 3 articles per week most times.
Now I can't seem to decide where to go from here. I've been thinking that I should just do a regular post, nothing too demanding, just to pump me up a bit, but no luck there.
Any thoughts or suggestions on how to choose a new blog topic after so long?
Do I go with a product review or an informative post?
I just feel so discouraged but I refuse to give up!
Any encouragement would be greatly appreciated :)

Don't sweat the small stuff life gets in the way. You sound a little overwhelmed, and that is fine. Step back take a deep breath and breathe you will be fine.
This is your start by writing this blog now next step is checking on your sites and then maybe trying to write a post for that. Now start off writing a blog about anything right now to you get your feet wet.
Bring us up to date for a start and then take it from there. That should get you going once an again. Try that and see if that helps you out.

Hi! I am hoping that you will be able to find the motivation to just start writing again. I have been in your situation many times and that is why I can't back off because I put off starting again. Situations don't always allow us to keep going, though. Just jump back in, that's the best advice I can give you. If you enjoyed writing posts before, there is no reason you won't enjoy writing them again. Just make yourself do it! :)
Best wishes,
Karin :)
Hey Shantaye! ... you've just demonstrated a winning attitude by showing 'insight' -- it's just a 'temporary' hiatus that you're experiencing -- the WA platform is amazing with lots to learn!
No one ever said it was going to be easy -- now did they? ...
It's wonderful that you're expressing & sharing your feelings --
... you know, it's like getting ready for the Olympics -- imagine the preparations for each athlete -- yes, sure, it's about getting the physique ready...
... however, more importantly, it's all about 'mind-set!' ... getting positive! ... with 'get-go!' ...
anyway, that's my lil' rant for today ... you go girl! ...
all the best for every success, cheerio... 😊
Hi ShanMak,
I know exactly how you feel.
When I am struggling for ideas, I visit Pinterest, Penny Hoarder and news sites to get ideas. Seeing what others are writing about gives me ideas.
Best wishes to you!

We all have a block
Best is to write down an idea when it comes up
And wOrk out later

That stop-start, phase can be hard to overcome, the best thing about writing content is just to do, one of the great things about Word Press is the edit button, so if we are not happy we can improve that content on the go.
Longway of saying any post will do,
You can get back into it Shantaye, best wishes.
