A Millions Things to Write About

Answer to Question

Since this is an answer to the above question the first thing that needs to be said is that only you can decide, what to write about.

But before saying anything about what you could write about, ask yourself the question: why did I join hubpages? Or any other article site for that matter.

Maybe you should re-phrase the question from "what should I write about?" to "what could I write about?" Do you see the difference.

I know I joined hubpages for a specific purpose. That purpose is still valid. But I discovered as I was writing one hub after the other that there is much more to write about than I had ever thought possible, like this one.

If you ever run out of things to write about, you can do what I have just done: go into Q&R and see what questions are being asked. The questions are asked for a purpose. Maybe to help someone to find something to write about.

I don't think I would normally answer this question, but I saw it as a challenge. But also that my friend Pete Maide had answered this question, so I thought I would do like him and free write, off the top of my head. Just roll with it, so to speak. See what would come out.

In so doing I am creating a hub. I am writing about something. This is great exercise as I also run out of things to write about.

There are other ways to find what to write, here or other submission sites as well as blog. Blog should be the easiest, as it's supposed to have a subject line. Articles can be a different story.

But let me just give some ideas, or where I get ideas. As said I get ideas from the Q&A. I get ideas, as I read other people's articles and blogs.

I have a physical work, where I move around a lot. I have created a habit of using my third generation cell phone as my camera. So as I am moving around from site to site, I take pictures. As I take these pictures subjects for articles come up.

You could also take a newspaper and find stories of interest to you. Write a review about them. Or take up the idea and write about it.

You could also just tell the story of what's happening in your life right now. Or a little story about a sibling, a child, and colleague at work. You could write a story about an event in your life.

Just let it flow. As you let it flow, new inspiration may come to you.

Writing is creative, so be creative. Read hubs, and get ideas. Listen to music and get ideas. See some art work, a theatre play, a movie and write about it, like Lissie did.

This was a fun question to answer. Thanks. It opened up my mind to how much there is to write about.

If I ever run out of ideas, will take those suggestions. So far I have plenty in mind going through photo albums of trips that we have enjoyed, etc. I started there and so have many more travel articles to write.

Thanks for bringing this topic.

Actually, I dont' search, if I might say so, for a certain subject to write about. I wait for the idea to come and hit me on the face so I can write with passion about any topic in the world.

Since this was an answer hub, I had fun writing it. In writing it I got all kinds of ideas. It's good when we have our passion to write about, but it's also good to see what others write and learn from there
