RE: Writers Block? 20 Cool Ideas for Your Next Steemit Post

in #writing8 years ago

To me, the problem isn’t in what to write about but how to write. I think every person wants to share his or her thoughts, feelings, and views on the world, etc. Yet, the big question is whether other people would be interested in what he or she has to say.

Paul McCartney once said: “A musician is writing music for himself. It makes him happy if other people like it as well.” Continuing his thought “if people don’t like it, then well that it’s tough.”

So a writer stands before a choice of “how to write?” To write looking over his/her shoulder to the audience, thinking whether it will like it and whether it will entertain it, or, God Forbid, not to offend someone’s feelings. Or write it honestly the way you see and feel it, in a way that you yourself like it and grow as a writer from one work to another.

I think that if you want to make money on Steemit you better write it for your audience or rather with the sole thought of entertaining your audience, because the audience isn’t going to appreciate Maximus’ scream “Are you not entertained?”
