6 Resources to Eliminate Writer's Block
For Non-Writers and Busy Professionals
Ever feel reluctant to blog or discouraged over cooking up interesting
social media posts? Having something new and fascinating to say on a
daily basis can be a challenge. The good news is so-called writer's
block is usually the result of not having enough input, doing thorough
research or trying to write off the cuff.
Here are 6 rock-solid resources to help you get good ideas more often...
- Active social media posts. It's easy to find out what's hot
and get a feel for what other people are doing successfully by simply
looking through social media posts. The great thing about social media
is you can tell which ideas have traction and which are duds just by
looking at the comments, likes, +1's, etc. Keep your eye open for
articles or posts with lots of activity and then put your own spin on
them.
- Popular blogs. Find a few popular blogs in your niche and
follow them. Make sure to sign up to get their update emails so you can
see how they promote. And just like with tip #1 above, you can share
your personal angle with your followers. (Find a few blogs not in your niche and follow them, too–good ideas are everywhere!)
- Humor helps... Ever notice how much attention humorous posts
get? Sometimes just tickling people's funny bone can spark goodwill
online. You may not even have to come up with anything at all, just
repost someone else's idea. It goes without saying you should avoid
reposting anything crude, overly edgy, or even too sarcastic. When in
doubt, don't post it, or you could find that goodwill flying out the
window fast.
- Inspirational quotes. If using humor presents too much "gray
area" then inspiration is the next most powerful way to connect quickly.
Check out the many quote sites online for some excellent ideas.
- Welcome to the jungle. Reading widely will turn you into an
idea machine very quickly. But if it's quick inspiration you seek, look
no further than book and magazine listings on Amazon.com–especially the
reviews–it's one of the best, unsung research resources online for
writers of any kind. Need a topic or title? Need a headline? Need to
know what people are saying about just about any subject? Check it out!
- Special interest forums and discussion groups. The best way
to put your finger on the pulse of your market, while generating
hundreds of ideas for relevant topics, is to join online forums or
discussion groups in the niche you serve. If it's a group of other
professionals in your niche, well, you might come across a few tips. But if you can eavesdrop on a forum composed of people who could be your actual clients–you've struck gold! Not only will you'll get invaluable intelligence on how to better serve your
clients, you'll have a treasure trove of ready-made ideas for relevant topics your market will devour.
Next time you're stuck try one of these tips–you'll be off and running
with so many ideas you won't be able to use all of them. And make sure
to pass these tips along to your clients and colleagues!
