Agreed, you can take inspiration from others and from "what works", especially if it's something that resonates with you. But at the end of the day, you've got to make it your own, and turn it into something you're passionate about.
When I get on a roll, a post practically writes itself, because it's usually a topic I'm already immersed in and quite passionate about (possibly almost to the point of being "triggered")! lol
Anyway, great comment and posts, got yourself one more follower! :)
And ditto to @stellabelle and @paulag (though already following you both).
