How To Gather Ideas To Write Articles

By Ezequiel Soucie


When you are a blogger or a writer, you need to have fresh and creative ideas but sometimes your creativity runs out of juice and you begin to have problems on how you can make your blog stand out from the rest of the pack. Finding a great idea is as limitless as your imagination if you only know how to tap into it.

Try to read forums and message boards for ideas for yourself. Millions and millions of people share their thoughts and ideas through these forums. And although they do have ideas it is much better that you take these ideas and spin them as your own.

See a movie and write a review about it. You can base your review on the setting and the emotion it creates while you watched it. It will make you think more emotionally and when you do put them into words.

While you are reading magazines and newspapers, right down the conflicts involved in their stories and what other people think of it. You can use those conflicts to your stories or to your blogs as ways to perk people's interests.

When you are running dry of ideas, you can always ask your readers what they want and how they feel about the character and ask for suggestions. Never close yourself off that what you want is what your readers also want.

It might be difficult at times but look inside yourself. Look at where you have been in the past couple of years and what you have learned in life. You can put them into words and apply them into your characters of your story.

Listen to people's stories. You can go to a coffee shop and eavesdrop on their conversation. Jot down the conflict of their story and make it your own. You can then infuse some of your own experience and how you would want to resolve such conflict.

Look at things around you from a different aspect. If you see an apple, look at it from a different angle and see what you can make a story out of it. You will begin to see the world in a different way which takes your story to a whole new level in another man's eyes apart from yourself.
