So, now that I have shown you a great resource area to get new ideas of overcoming writer's block, I want to show you one of the new ways I have recently thought of in a "ah-ha" moment I had.

Site Comments - A place we go to help out our fellow WAers to leave comments on their sites. As we go through all the different topics that come up to comment on, I have started to pay attention to all the keywords that are related to my site. When I find topics that I could write about, I head on over to Jaaxy to check out if there are any keywords I can use from that topic.

For example, I just read a post about Wordpress hosting sites. So, I typed "Wordpress hosting" into the search and got quite a few useful keywords for me to use in a post.

Thanks for sharing Leah! I also found the free-writing exercise pretty powerful to overcome writer's block, you may want to try that out too :)

Oh cool. I'm trying so hard to not go off and learn anything anywhere else until I've worked through all the training here - and there's so much am not sure I'll ever be done. Hehe.

Thanks, Leah. I found this most informative and useful. I don't necessarily come short of things to post about as much as I do when it comes to the actual writing. I'm not a very talkative person so it is a definite challenge for me to get conversational in my posts.

All the best,

Brian

Thanks,,.writers block is horrible...I know it, I have been there and step all the time back to it...the worst is when you know exactly what you want to write about, you have your keywords set...but then the big empty nothing....
Will check out Udemy for those courses...good tip!!!

Yes, I hate sitting and staring and the words won't come out. Especially when you know what you want to say, but not how to say it! That is where I have got really good at creating potential posts...Titles, couple headings...save for later lol
