Why I Write About Writing
Time to reveal my greatest secret
First, you have to understand that what you write will be your online present, even if you don’t want to.
Among the writing niches, there are a few different kinds.
For me, writing is still in the early stage because I do not have a form that others can recognize or can put a tag and say he’s about this or that.
Sure, you can say I’m associated with a publication, but anyone can have one and grow it if they put enough time and effort.
That really has little to do with why I write about writing.
Going with the about writing route has many benefits that some can not wrap their head around.
1 — The demand advantage
There’s almost an unlimited supply of writing articles.
However, you don’t need to be that good of a writer to get your hands on some demand (readers) because there is all level of writers that wants to know more about writing online.
This is when I discovered that every reader created a double demand as they could also be a writer.
Here is where it gets interesting on different writing platforms, just look at the larger or more relevant creators, the engagement that they get, and under their comment section, you can see all other fans/followers just like you and me.
We’re all trying to find our place in this market or whatever niche you are in.
2 — Pairing it with any other niche
There are many groups of writing niches, the most popular one is about making money with your writing, either on the platform or on another platform.
This is often done by describing and sharing some insight you have found about it and how the money is being earned, even if you have only a little idea of how it might work.
Most of the time, you can just wing it with some common ideas, facts, or basic knowledge that they already know and package it well to present it in another way.
Some give out these writing tips for free, while others create a network of landing pages to get the reader interested in making money with their writing.
Yet, the most effective way is to write about your experience in what you do.
3 — Writing for yourself or your younger self
This is the concept of sharing your past or current problem and trying to find a solution for it.
It’s like you going to a place you never went and came back to tell stories about the places you have been to with lessons and memories that you couldn’t forget.
There’s no difference between reminding yourself of what you did and what you learn, it’s a real reflection that can help others by just telling the truth.
Not everyone has to agree with you, as you don’t need that many, yet if it’s something from the heart, people can feel your words and create their own sense of imagination with it.
Writing about writing will always be there, as no one can get away from it.
Just that some write about it, while others complain.
Either way, it will reflect your day, mood, and all the things that you do.
Just an easier way for me to download thoughts onto the screen with feelings and all that good stuff.
It’s like a charger that gives positive and negative currents.
