Obviously I cannot speak for everyone, and many businesses have a staff that rotates publication responsibilities, but the Tennessee Mountain Man writes about what moves him at any given moment. It is just easier that way. On the other hand it occasionally causes some amount of anxiety because the feast or famine rules apply. That is, the hopper is either full of articles waiting to be published - Online PC Repair posts articles three (3) days a week normally - or like Computer Man or most other publishers we are swiftly coming up on a deadline and notta.
However, currently there is a plethora of ideas and subjects about which one wants to write... even needs to vent about. Not to have a subject upon which to expound these days one would almost need to be in a coma.
No... the current problem is not being brain dead, but time challenged. We live in such interesting and challenging times that The Tennessee Mountain Man could and would love to be churning out articles daily, but alas God only gave us twenty-four hours in a day and there are other responsibilities.
The Computerman's practice of writing about what has him piqued at any given moment means the reader gets a wide variety of subjects from family issues to holidays to politics to whatever moves an old man - not just website design and web based computer repair material though there is a smattering of those as well.
Some have said a highly technical article requires much more research before an article is ready to go. That has not been the experience of the techs at Remote Helpdesk 1. We not only want to be correct and specific with respect to online computer repair and web design, but with the general and current event subjects we cover as well. Therefore, irrespective of what one is writing about, a fair amount of research is incumbent upon the author before he or she goes popping off to the entire world.
It is only fair to point out that we have noticed a lot more tolerance with the advent of the internet and the explosion of Blogers. Articles that would have caused international incidents a few years ago rarely raise an eye brow today. That is not to say that it is necessarily the best information for the public, but then even the big three as well as the cable news networks and printed press all have their own agendas these days as is apparent in the subjects they choose to cover and the slant they employ in their coverage. Perhaps they always did and it was just not as noticeable because there was less immediate releases for comparison and analysis.
Still don't have an idea where to start? Everyone has a hobby, a job, a subject of interest. For instance if your life is consumed with your grandchildren, your pooch, March Madness, or fishing that is a subject about which you can write with minimal research. The problem most people have is that they assume everyone knows what they know. Be assured they don't or they see it from a different perspective which can lead to interesting and enlightening discussions, and even ideas for other articles.
Even if your readers agree with your views on any given subject that is positive feed back for you and for them. All of us need affirmation at times when this cruel world can leave us feeling like we stand alone although we never do. We may be right or we may be wrong, bur never alone in our views on any given matter.
O.K. Everyone seems to be into reality TV these days so let me start a family feud - everyone can write about their first crush and how that experience, regardless of how it ended, affected their lives. Maybe you are still together. What a love story and every woman loves a good romance novel. Perhaps it ended in tragedy. We all need to empathize and shed a tear now and again. Maybe it was just a horrible experience. I for one could use a good belly splitting laugh so lets have it.
A friend works as a government meat inspector in a poultry processing plant. She spends twelve hours a day "looking at chicken asses", as she puts it. She thinks she has nothing to write about but when she gets started telling stories from the line, I laugh until I hurt, and I could not do her job or tolerate the people around her. Maybe, like you, she thinks I don't get it but when I was sixteen years old and wanted "a real job" my dad got me one in the same chicken processing plant that she works in today - yes, it has been around for awhile. To this day, this country boy don't eat chicken. They just didn't process them the way we did on the farm. I only made it an hour in the plant. I spent the rest of the day puking my guts out - out in the parking lot. The next day I was glad to return to school.
How many people work where you do? What do you do for fun and relaxation? How does that compare with the population of the world? So tell us about it.
The online PC repair and website design teams, who just inserted themselves into this article, agree that a glass of Dewars and a well packed pipe help immensely. My train of though being shot, I'm through. It is your turn.
