What Do I Write About? Think - LIFE Is A Blog Post!

Good morning, Debe!

Every so often I do get writers block, feeling that I have already written about every possible topic I can think of.  But, as I read others' posts, I suddenly get more ideas.

And yes, life is never ending and there is always something happening.

Many times, I get a mental block that will not allow the words to flow.  When that Happens...I just think about all that happened during the day and something good comes to mind..

Life is always the best inspiration. Write what you know!

Seeing your smile brightens up my day and reading your posts adds to my knowledge - thanks. I remember Bob Stewart saying that every question a Client asks is a basis for a post ...

Great blog post Debe, our lives are an open book here on Active Rain.

The idea and the content of a blog post is born every time you ask a question or get asked a question by a client, or Realtor, or assistant, or lender, or attorney, or home inspector, or by any other direct or tangential participant in a transaction. That should be about ten to thirty blog ideas a day.

Debe, this is a great idea. I spend so much time researching and writing about in-depth, rich content, I lose sight of the simpler and more memorable things about this business that clients and potential client might find amusing and human. This is an approach I need to explore more, and I bet, more people would rather read something funny and personal about the person they were considering working with.

Debe, here we are again, we are on the same page, I write about everything and many have nothing to do with Real Estate, but the buyers and sellers get to know me and want to work with me based on what I write about, gourmet food eating, drinking top shelf champagne, reading good books etc. the list goes on and on, Endre

One of my biggest problems is that I get a TON of material from my Landlords and Tenants but we are in a small community. I don't want to write something that can be tied to an individual and embarass them.

I have found that when I read posts the ones that seem to impact me the most are those that come out of the writers personal experience.

Great ideas, thanks

I've been lazy with my posting and realize it has been a while since I posted regularly, so need to get back in the groove.

There is always something to blog about. But I really like the challenges of the ActiveRain contests. I feel that many of the contests have not only helped me to be a better blogger, but also a better Realtor. I really look forward to blogging and hope to keep doing it for a long time. Thanks for the ideas. 

Debe.

Thank you for this great post. Great ideas.

Good week.

Often, I get too busy to write, but your life as a Realtor is worth blogging about. Never a dull moment!

Hi Debe

I love this post! What wonderful inspiration for those moments when ideas for writing elude us...and it happens to us all now and then. The reality is there is an endless list of things to write about but sometimes we need that kick to get us motivated. And sometimes I know I think...no one will want to read about this, and I find that is NOT the case!

Good morning, Debe Maxwell, CRS there are so many different ways to be inspired to write about a topic...reading other posts, scanning through the Q&A section or just thinking about personal and/or your business life.... I'm never suffering from brain freeze and lack of topics....

Debe, great post. There can never be too many posts like this one because we all get writers block from time to time. Fresh ideas are always welcome. 

Dear Debe,

Great ideas for sources.

Just saw this on a reblog by Stephen Turner  and it deserves a second comment!

"The conversation on one blog post always seems to open our minds to at least one idea and off we go to write another."
