Some writers could publish well-explained information. Others are excellent at creating fictional stories that keep the readers anticipating. There are also authors who are talented in writing prose, or other creative forms of literature.
If you are blessed with ultimate writing skills, you can be able to do all that were mentioned. But if you are like the majority who could excel in just one or more but not all fields, we are the same.
My four months in this platform introduced me to different, and wide ranges of themes that the authors published every single day. It makes not just writing, but reading exciting and interesting everyday, because no one has exactly the similar topics. Maybe other platforms focus only on a certain topic, which limits readers' tendency to enjoy their experience, but I am grateful that read.cash allows different topics and niches. It discourages discrimination, and gives chances to everyone. Some topics I usually read about are:
Crypto-related, of course, especially about Bitcoin Cash
Stories (Fictional or Non-Fictional)
Inspirational Articles
Blogging Tips
Historical Trivia and Stories
Travel Blogs
Daily Diary-like blogs
Writing Prompts or Challenges
Personal Life and Experiences
Educational Materials
The ones mentioned are just some of the themes I could remember as of the time of this writing. As long as the rules are followed, the range of one's theme in his/her articles, is boundless.
Personally, I write about my own experiences, random blogs, and little bits of story time. I also have regular (weekly) dose of sharing God's message which I do as much as I can, especially after the Sunday service. Those I talked about relate closely to my personal preferences, my own life, and own insights. If you are a frequent visitor of my works, you can see how personal and subjective my articles are, because it is the field I am best at.
I must say I don't have a specific "niche", like others do, which was also deemed important. But I believe that as long as there will still be people who could learn, relate, and even somehow be inspired with my blogs, I will pursue writing.
Write with what you're best at. Please do not, in any means, misinterpret it in a way that you are the best in this specific field. I used the word "best" in a sense that it is a field where you could show your greatest potential, where you are sure you aren't misleading anyone, and where you're comfortable at. Writing is basically expressing yourself, so there is no problem if you choose to publish the contents you are comfortable to post, again, as long as you are not violating the rules in which platform you are in.
If you are good at gathering results of research, sharing factual information based on credible sources, about a particular subject, then go write about it. It's what you are best at, so utilize your skills freely. Just don't be ignorant of the guidelines of an informative type of article, some of which are, citing sources properly to avoid plagiarism and other issues; making sure that the data provided are indeed backed up by adequate evidences; and presenting everything as objective as possible. I for one, is not that confident in this type of contents, so I suggest you to do your own research (or DYOR for short), on how to make a read-worthy content.
If you are like me who is fond of sharing personal experiences, then try to be as free and as real as you can be. It's better to be more expressive and detailed in sharing your insights, in a way that the readers could relate and feel that a friend is talking to them. What I found beautiful in personal blogging is that it relaxes me, helps me exhales my bottled up emotions, and free me of suffocating thoughts. Moreover, the flow of ideas is natural (though maybe random at times). To be honest, my blogs may be sometimes kind of boring, but I actually don't care that much, because I am having fun. (Laughs.) As writing is my main vehicle of expressions unlike others who show it through their words, I don't want to restrict my freedom in writing because it is, in fact, my freedom.
Reading fictional stories is also my hobby in this platform. Whether it be love stories, inspirational ones, or funny anecdotes, I am always learning something new. There is something beautiful about story-telling that makes reading and writing it a fun and remarkable experience. In this field, one should have a wide imagination, a creative mind. One may also need a rich vocabulary to not run out of words to use. Emotions are important in writing under this field, so you must take this area seriously. An imaginative and innovative writer can make the readers always excited for his/her next stories, or feel what the characters in the plot feels. I also personally hate plot holes in stories, (and I know I ain't the only one, haha!) so please make a careful consideration od the plot as well, if you should.
There is no limit in Writing.
Actually, no one's telling you to not explore on different contents to write, just because you aren't knowledgeable about it yet. Everything can be learned with hardwork and persistence. Wanna write something about BCH but you're a crypto-noob? It's not wrong, as long as you don't deliberately write it without having proper research. Start learing about that area, and enrich yourself with everything about it, and one day, you'll just see yourself writing about it without even needing to reference the internet, because you know it like how you close and open your eyes.
This article is inspired by my recent checking of my previous works. I noticed that I dwelled on free-writing, personal sharing, and updates on how my day went. I somehow criticized myself, thinking.. "My works must have been so boring to read.. Not much people is interested about myself anyway.." then I stop and tell myself, "It's okay! You want to share it, and there'd always be one (at least), who can relate to it."
Be as free as you can be, especially if writing is your form of expression, like me. And write about something which you can show your real colors, the best of you. Because to me, it made me love more what I do. I look forward to doing it everyday, and it makes my day complete.
What is your main content like? Do you have various types of articles, or do you prefer just focusing on one style? No method is wrong. Do what best suits you, of course.
I hope I got to impart something nice tonight. I am writing this while having a late night talk with my brother. Whatever we are talking about right now, I hope I could share it into my next article. Our exchange of insights have some weight and I think others can relate to it somehow. I leave you with this one topic tonight. I wish you a sweet night..
Until Next Time!

Very well written! I've been in this platform for 3 weeks and I haven't written a lot. I'm struggling at finding good topics to write about especially if my goal is to publish one article per day (which is what everyone is doing here huhu) . Reading this kind of assured me that I can write about anything as long as I enjoy it.
