The Exigency of Writing

Writing comes with a lot of doubts and fear. For example, when you sit down to write, you usually ask yourself: What should I write about? Where can I find ideas for my writing? How can I present my idea in a way that is interesting and captivating to the audience?

Writing especially writing articles can put most writers in a quandary because you need to know that you are doing the right things

The first thing you want to do is think about the title. You want to make sure that it grabs your target; your readers attention and makes them want to read your article. The title should be short but at the same time contain all the crucial elements of your article. Meaning your title must match all you are saying in your article .

I don’t know if you go through the same thing. Especially when you’re first starting out writing, but you have this problem where you have to come up with a topic and I have the hardest time coming up with topics.

Many times I feel discouraged to write because I can't think of a topic to write it and it makes me feel bad.

It is often a challenging task to find a topic to write about. While some writers have an idea where they want to take their writing from, others feel stuck with not knowing where to begin.

Sometimes even if you have a topic in mind, it is still difficult to come up with a good starting sentence for your essay or any other piece of writing.

Finding a topic sometimes can be stressful but there things we can do get them. For example

  • You can talk about lessons you gained from a movie you recently watched

  • Reading books increases one's mental faculty and it helps you to get topics and ideals to write down easier.

  • Being a outdoor person! Yeah you heard me right. When you go out especially to places you haven't been to before, the experience can be thrilling and it can spark your imagination.

  • You can also write about a place you admire, for example countries or cities you wish to go to.

After you figure out what you are going to write about, you need to think about what you should have in each part of your article

The important thing about writing is to have something to say, and not say anything that doesn’t need saying. I have written a lot of articles. But I had a problem with this.

Writing an article from scratch always need much time and effort and it involves a lot mental exercise.

Importance of Writing.

Being a writer is not only a profession nowadays but being a writer requires passion, creativity and imagination. It is not just a job or career but an art that one must possess to be able to write books, journals and articles. Writing helps us find our truth and share it with other people. When we learn how to write, we start to connect with the world much better and as we grow older, our writing also improves.

What writing offers us is a chance to connect with other people through words. It helps us express our emotions and share them in the world. It helps us discuss situations happening around us. We can use our writing to review something we have experienced in the past or just something that happened that day for example, a book we have read or something that has inspired us lately.

In conclusion

It doesn't matter where our writing is going to be published or how it's going to be used but what matters is we enjoy expressing ourselves through words.

Special thanks to everyone who took their time to read my articles everyday and to my amazing sponsors.

There is always a lot or 'trial and error' involved in writing. A lot of thoughts are into it. Things as basic as tenses and grammar too are a concern. What to write, how to write and for whom. Perhaps it is the Economics of writing. There are times you get into it, and you're flowing/writing every thing so well, and there is a lot to write too that you just have to cut it short. The major problem is usually at the beginning

The usual places I get topics from is online forums like nairaland, Quora and reddit. Most times I don't have problems coming up with topics, the problem I have sometimes is writing the introduction of an article, that thing is frustrating sometimes 😆

Introduction is very important and can be very difficult I can understand. I am sorry I am just replying now.
