Writing inspiration can come from the seemingly most random of places. This very article found its inspiration from a Creative Commons photo I used on a previous post. It read: “I’m totally blogging this!” Is this actually something a writer or blogger will say? Sometimes, yes.
What makes something worthy of writing?
You can write about just about anything. The trick is making it sound interesting and provide some value to your readers. That’s why there are so many writing niches out there.
Whenever something strikes your fancy to blog about, be sure to make a note of it. It could be with a picture, a message in your phone, or some sort of post-it note. If something gets your attention, someone else will probably like to read about it, too!

You don’t always have to rely strictly on keyword research and niche considerations when you’re writing. These are great for building your foundation. But, you’re allowed to have fun writing sometimes! It’s posted online, so if your article or blog post underperforms, you can always fix it later.
Yeah, all of those other things are important. But, those other things - SEO, especially - should complement what you doing, not define it. Your passion and your own personality must be the things that come first when you’re writing.
So, if you tell yourself “I’m totally writing it,” then you probably should...
