When I start on this platform my knowledge about writing is nothing. Even my knowledge of English is nothing like an empty shell. As I continue being here I gain knowledge and experience to be a blogger Lol. At first, I don't have anything topic to write and I only make a 1-2 minutes article before and those are more non-sense than what I am writing this day.
I am so grateful that every day I learn something from other users that is a really big help for me in writing. Like hearing a new word, if I read unfamiliar words I will google it and next time I will use it for writing my article and also I can use it on my academics. If I did something wrong some users will say to me what is wrong in that way I can edit it and make it correct. From zero knowledge about English, writing and blogging I gain knowledge about it every second, minute, hour, and day that I spend here.
The biggest problem I had every day is what topic I will write for my next one. Maybe almost all of us has the same problem as me Haha. So today I'm thinking on talking about how I come up with an idea/topic to write. All Things that you will read is based on my thoughts and techniques.
Reading articles
This is the most effective way for me. If I read other articles I will gain many ideas on what I will write. Like one of my articles 'My Mothers Plant: top 10 plants I like' I came up with this idea because of one user who wrote an article about foods since I don't usually take a photo about the foods I cook then I think about plants since we have so many plants and also there are only a few people who make an article about plants. I think my idea is successful because the article gain more than 50 views and it is also one of my most tipped article!
Also while reading articles you can know about what is the most trending topic like 'slambook' and many more. You can know about what topic that readers most like and also you can have interactions with other users. π
Sharing my experience/my own stories
This is the easiest way to come up with a topic. You can share all of your experiences like of you travel the world, how your school life looks like and many more. Almost all of my topic is about my own experience.
Why it is easier to write about your experience? because you experience it by yourself it is like you are just telling a story about what happened, what did you feel, what are your thoughts in mind. Also, many users are using this because it is interesting to many people.
Fictional Stories
If you have a very huge imagination then fictional stories are for you. I also tried to write a story before but it didn't end up pretty well. Maybe next month I will also try again and I will make it better Lol. Many users are using this and what I can say is 'nice'. Their stories are good and they look like a professional writer who writes many fictional stories.
Watching movies/k-drama/anime
If someone asks me what are the perks of watching the whole day? For me, I can think of a topic because of it. When watching I can think of an idea or any words that I can add up to what I am writing. For example, if I watch 'Love story' I can think about writing a fictional love story.
Also watching movies can keep me motivated to write every time. But also sometimes it is the reason why I am inactive because I want to finish the full season immediately because I am so curious about the ending of what I am watching. Lol
Mood
If my mood is good expect that I will be active and my mind will think as many topics as I can until I don't know what is the first topic that I will start. If I feel so sad/lazy expect that I will be quiet in a day. When I am writing/reading it depends on my mood sometimes if I am so motivated I can read more than 15 articles and I can write 1 article in just a day.
I don't know if you will believe me but I already experience writing a 3 minutes article in just 10 minutes Haha. The reason why is I am so unmotivated at that time because rusty didn't visit me even if I tried my best. I can't imagine how I wrote that article in just a few minutes. Lol
Thinking about an idea is not a joke. Some people are spending time searching about what topic that can they write about. If you can easily think about what to write then congrats you have a smart brain. Lol
In my side, I only write when I am in mood. I dont know but my write ups depends on my mood..
