Article Writing - 3 Usable Tips and Ideas For Your Articles
Are you frustrated sitting at your computer wondering what to write about in your articles? Here are a few tips and ideas to get you started.
1.
Can you make a list of 3, 5 or 7 tips, ideas, plans that have benefited you in your niche or topic? What 5 tips could you offer your readers that could benefit them from your experience and knowledge? We all have something special to share, deep within us gained from living life.
We are constantly learning new things, a better or easier way of doing something, a new technique, smart idea or something interesting.
Make a list.
The longer the better.
This is the frame work to build on, for your piece.
2.
I find that there are certain places where I get inspiration, where ideas come to me out of the blue.
It helps if you first think about a problem and then let go of it.
"Finding writing ideas for instance".
My place is in bed, in that dreamy place just before going to sleep or on waking up in the morning.
For you it could be in the shower, taking a bath, on the loo, making a cup of coffee? The trick here is to become aware where this happens and not to dismiss these thoughts.
Always have a pen and paper ready to jot down what comes to you.
Don't think, "narrr, it's not worth it".
My best ideas have come from following up on these thoughts.
3.
Make a list of questions that you could ask about your topic.
Use the 5 W and H approach, (why, where, what, who, when and how?).
Asking questions gets you to think.
Once you built your list go research and write up your answers.
You are learning and sharing at the same time.
Do not copy, just express your understanding on what you have learnt.
Offer your opinion or recommendation as a conclusion.
The best tip is no.
2.
The other ones just help this process along.
In a nut shell, become aware of where you get your best ideas and thoughts, go there for your inspiration.
Have a way of recording these thoughts there and then, or you will forget if you do it later.
ACT on what comes to you.
You will be surprised at your results if you do this.
Article writing can be fun, have a positive attitude.
Enjoy the journey and reap the rewards of the ideas that come to you for your articles.
