Writing is an art of passing knowledge to others.
A few days ago, I was having a conversation with one of my friends on steemit chat group, when he asked me what to write as he was out of ideas. Being an ideas guy, I told him that he could write a post, "What do I write when I am out of ideas".

Though he didn't believed me, I still believe this could be a great post and I am going to write it one day. But leave it for any other day.
Then I thought there must be lot of people on steemit who don't know what to write about, so I thought I would make a list of 10 things that anyone could easily write about on steemit.
1. Personal Stories.

While a lot of people are nervous about sharing there personal stories on steemit, as it will be on blockchain forever, still I will urge you to write about your life and things that you have experienced. As you are pretty much unknown here almost to everyone, you could write and share anything.
As steemit community is supportive and you might find a lot of help here that you were searching for your troubles in real life.
In this niche, you don't have to limit it to the sad stories of your life, but you can write about the happy moments, the time you did a great thing, helped someone in need, about anyone in your family.
You could even write about how was your day or what did you find new on steemit today.
2. Food.

Everyone in this world eats 3 or more times a day and that too different types of food. How many different types of food you have eaten this week. Even if you think that the food you eat daily is normal routine food in your area or country, show it here on steemit.
As there are people from different parts of the world on steemit, they will be interested to know what kind of food you eat in your country.
Also you could always write reviews of famous restaurants and cafeterias you have visited.
3. Travel.

Every year you must have traveled to 5-6 awesome places when you were on your vacation or due to work. You could write about it here. Write what you have experienced there, what was an interesting tale you always wanted to tell others.
Even if you don't travel much and if you are staying in one of the countries with high tourist attraction like Europe, America, Australia etc, you could write about your country. Which cities and places to visit when anyone comes to your country. What are the hidden beauties in your country known only to a few, and also, about your culture and how you live life there.
4. Nature.

Along with providing us beautiful views, peace to our minds, adventures for some, nature also provides us a chance to write about it. And there is a lot you could always write about in it. And the best thing about it is that you don't have to go anywhere, nature is all around us.
Just step out of your house, you could write about weather, the clouds, the sunset.
If you have a small garden, there are lots of small creatures in it, that you never noticed, or a few trees that you don't know much about.
While going to work, see how morning is, write about it, write about stray cats and dogs you found on roads, the birds in the sky or anything else you notice from now on.
5. Technology.

As you are on steemit and using cryptocurrencies, you already are advanced in technology than many others in the world.
Now what could you possibly write about technology....let's see.
I would not say everyday, but every hour or in every minute something new is developed and something old is tagged as obsolete. If you would only write about block chain daily, it would take more than a few months to sum up what block chain is all about and what it could be.
Now think of the whole internet, laptops, mobile phones, tablets.......
Think of latest cars, bikes, planes.........
Think of latest apps, websites, blogs..........
6. How to.

If there is anything in this world, that needs to be done, there is a way of doing it. You could do a lot of things easily in life that other's struggle at, or even scared of it.
If you know how to write good articles, write an article and teach people.
If you know how to sing, dance or act, teach people how to.
If you know how to program, how to design or how to develop, teach them.
You could even teach people how to think and become a great motivator to make them achieve things.
Just find a thing you are good at, and teach people how they can do it.
7. Contests.

If you will go to the new contests page, you would see that a lot of contests are being organised by people here on steemit.
Be it writing a specific article, making an art or meme, interpretation of any picture etc.
A lot of contests gives you participation prizes also if you don't win, and along with it, you make more connections with people and can make your presence felt if you win a famous contest, which is an important thing for long term on steemit.
So you make a post about your participation in contest, you earn,
You participate, you earn,
You win, you earn and make more connection here.
It is the easiest way of making money and writing a post here on steemit.
8. Steemit Broadcaster.

As the steemit community is growing, so much is going on everyday, and most of the people miss a lot of new and interesting things happening on steemit.
Though we are still very few in numbers, but when this community will grow to millions, it will be an interesting job to record and tell everyone what new has happened here on steemit today.
9. Reviewer.

We have seen a lot of people on youtube making videos about their reviews on latest movies and video series.
You could also do it, be it movies, gadgets, or anything else.
If you research and analyze about your favourite altcoin, you could write reviews and daily analysis about it, which a lot of people are doing already. Select a niche you are interested in and you could always keep a track on it and also tell people about it and gain a lot of following.
Be it about fashion, food, music, videos etc.
The things you enjoy spending time in, you could tell people what are good and what are bad in those.
10. Information.

I have kept this at last because it is kind of combination of all the 9. Everything we write is a piece of information and when we post it, we are sharing our information with others.
There is billions of gigabytes of information already posted on internet and with each day it is growing.
There is a high possibility that if you want to share some information on internet, it is already there.
But what matters is how much information about anything you have and how you express it to your readers. You could post anything from how your nails and hairs grow to how blockchain technology works. The only thing that matters is how you represent your information and how much relevant your information is to the readers.

People also love reading about animals and cryptocurrencies which are most of my posts. Memes are always good too.
Yes, I have told about it in nature, reviews etc.
Personal stories are not easy for me as I am quite reserved and closed. Yet my first posts have been extremely personal; writing about my sudden transition into a single parent when my wife went to hospital after a nervous breakdown. She is still there so I also write of her experiences in the madhouse. She would probably write herself given the opportunity. Maybe she eventually will. I'm still in two minds about whether or not to continue relating perhaps too personal an experience.
If you decide to write, I will be sure you will get a lot of support on your troubles here, else if you don't want to write, there are so many things you could always write about.
Really helpful!
thanks buddy.

Very nice post! So clean and to the point, do you use the RAW HTML feature to write your posts? Please do a post on how to write a post, hehe. Upped and followed!
Will surely do one day. I write a mix of editor and html.
I like these ideas. Take one subject a day and repeat after 10 days 👍
That's a great way to do it.
This is good post , and good info... I like it :)
thanks.
you are welcome :)
All good ideas - I'm only just starting out on Steemit and am keen to explore what topics I enjoy most :)
You could have a look at all these 10 topics.
thanks, but I still think a long journey is still awaiting me, and I am ready to make it along with steemit for years.
Thanks for your support @unmean-stweets
I want to share it
this was a great article ! i'm going to check out that writing contest section that you mentioned.. 2 of my favorite posts that I've written were fictional short stories / fables… i just enjoyed it so much; i want to do it again… it's just kind of a bummer that only a handful of people will get to read your creation.. oh well, if i keep it up, and keep writing, maybe they will get some kind of notoriety eventually; and i'll become a better writer.. i follow everyone who follows me.. seems like the right thing to do.. ; )
yup ofcourse!!
The format of your post is great - crisp and clear. I really liked the quotes you inserted. Did you come up with the food quote?
Great post and love the idea :0) thx for sharing. Upvoted and followed
While checking out your posts, I found this. This gives me a million ideas and it covers a lot of writing territories. Thanks!
haha, welcome... So you got anything from here that you will write about?
Yep, plenty! Tech for one. Will share it with you once I jot down some ideas. :) And I like the way you formatted this with pictures to the side, makes it easy to read.
At that time, I was trying to experiment things, I was learning.....
