What Should I Write About? Arrghh!

AHA! I finally have something to write about. It is simply that fact that I am not sure what I should write about. The thought of writing on the blog seems simply at first, but when I got to write on it. I can't think of anything. I have many interests but I often find it hard to articulate, or in this case write, these these ideas down. For the most part I think the ideas that I have are interesting, but I am not sure what I should write about the subjects. (As a side note, I am aware that I have so far this blog has made more than sufficient use of the words but and about...and it will continue) Sometimes I want to write about the fact that I do not have as much time as I would like to read novels, but I am not sure which aspect to write about. The fact that dealing with the stress that accompanies the Resident Assistant position keeps me from reading or the fact that I'm concerned with ideas for blog posts. I then become overwhelmed and usually resort to sleep as a refuge. Maybe I have some undiagnosed problem with lack of structure, which is odd because I am an artist by trade. Or maybe if I were to see this blog as a form of art it would be easir for me to paint with the brush that is my keyboard. Nevertheless, would someone please provide me with something interesting to blog about.
A thousand thanks,
Fred

I feel you on resorting to sleep as a refuge. Say, write about the effectiveness of napping -- something I would like to know more about.

You say you have lots of interesting things to write about, so it seems you should be able to find a theme easily enough. Just write on whatever happens to interest you at the moment.

So, execution seems to be the problem. I don't think I have any great tips here. My basic advice is just to start, and lay some words down. It does not matter much what those words are, as any words are better than nothing.

If that does not work, do some research. Look at some other blogs, and see how/what they are writing, you may get some ideas to start from.

It is hard to write things on here considering not many people really participated with further comments and postings.
