I've been here for five years and believe this point to be completely wrong. You should be writing what you're passionate about, what makes you happy and brings enjoyment.
Writing what you think people want to read will only end up in you writing rubbish.
Oh yea, I agree wholeheartedly. May be I should have worded it more appropriately 🤪. I meant by this that something that adds value to people's life.
Definitely people should write what they are passionate about and interests them. Or it would be impossible to carry on. But I feel people would be less interested to read something if it's just for the sake of writing without any insights or takeaways or solid info or entertainment if it is fictitious.
Thanks for pointing out 🙏 and stopping by.

That's a good change, although I still maintain that the writing needs to be done for oneself, the enjoyment of it, not others. Of course, the reader needs to see some value but a writer can never dictate that; it's outside the writers control to make a reader find value. So, writing for oneself is the best policy, and those that respond to it will find value, and those that do not, will not.
I do write solely for the sake of enjoyment, but its confined to my private journal. I write because people want to read. Though I claim myself to be a writer, I am ashamed to admit that I won't write if no one would read 😅, I don't have that kind of humility. Well, people can write for themselves and probably take an emotional discourse in every writeup, or may be switch niches or offer ambiguous conclusion or something they only can relate to, but then it need not to be public necessarily, and obviously they should not expect making a livelihood out of it or grow their prominence steadily or commercialise writing.
If you all care about is what you care about, free markets are not for you. Maybe they are for someone like @galenkp but not for an average joe 😉.
Seems like you have it all worked out. I'll leave you to it.
😄 one should do what works for them. We all have different lives, circumstances, individualities, interests and brain workings. What you said was very relevant. I love fiddling with the deeper aspects about things. Thank you for taking time to be here and express how you feel 🙏. All the blessings.
@shubhwaj(2/3) gave you LUV.
