Do you normally write about what interests you, or what interests others?
I know I write about things that are interesting to me, also because it's something I can get into. How do you chose what to write about? Because it's popular, or because you like it?
I write about what interests me. I find that when I write this way, I am more passionate about my writing and it turns out so much better.
I think it's good to do both. Write about what you like to make you happy and then write about what other's like to get views. I'm sure what interests you will interest some other people too though.
Great question asked...i only write which is my mode of interest.
I also write about my passions and interests. It is much easier to write.
Chances are very good that there are lots of other people who shares this passion and will read my hubs.
I confess that yes I write what 'interests' me... Tho keeping in mind that I am relating to others that are 'like minded.'
I write what interests me, and I'm fortunately scatter brained which allows for a lot of leeway. For example, I'm currently working on a mystery, a non-fiction special-ops piece, a non-fiction set battle piece, a book review, and latin quotations.
I focus on where my interests and what others demand intersect. It's important that my work be well-received because I do have to make money at this, my family doesn't eat if I don't, but if it's not something I'm genuinely interested in then I can't do a good enough job for it to be well-received.
I try to to do a little bit of both i like to write about what intrests me because i feel like i do a better job that way but i aslo like the challange of writting and researching what i think will intrest others
I write about what I like, my passions and other interests, but I make it relatable so others will be interested as well!
I have written for all those reasons. I write for my wife for her Birthday and for Christmas. I write with my interests in mind, such as from a certain perspective like Historical or Afterlife. I use this alot to set the mood based on who or what I am writing a specific piece for.
I write about things that interest me. However, I think it is wiser to write about stuff that people are searching the web for. There are a couple different ways a hubber can find this information. Two ways I know of are Google Trends and Google Adwords.
I write about things I love. That's the easiest way to avoid writers block. You have to love everything you do, even if you have to force it lol.
I have been writing about things I am familiar with personally, though all the while I am researching what readers out there are looking for as far as interests and information. But since I am not on here to get rich, writing for enjoyment I guess would be writing about my interests and hoping others will be interested, too.

Do you write about things you know or things you want to learn?
by Aj Sethuraman 10 years ago
I want to write about things I love, which is what I'm told you should do. So, for you guys who have had successful hubs, are your hubs like that because:You got lucky, and what you're passionate about is a hot topic;You made hubs that you knew were popular topics;Or some other reason?

Do you write about what you really know about or do you just wing with abit of research? And...what is your specialty?

Where do you find the subjects that you write about?Is this an *inspiration, life experience or an idea that someone gave you? I know sometimes it hard to come up with something to write about. Would you find it helpful if there was a place to go to find ideas and subjects that you could write...
