31 Blog Writing Prompts to Break Your Writer’s Block

Written by Katrina Kirsch

One of the things I do struggle with is content, you know what should I write about without getting too personal. Like everything else, we can find thousands of ideas for our next post on the internet. Of course like everyone else I found several locations or other bloggers that offer up ideas, and this one happen to be one on my list. I think you will enjoy the prompts, now of course feel free to visit the original article, “31 Blog Writing Prompts to Break Your Writer’s Block”, where Katrina offers a whole post about blogging and how to get through any writer blocks, that many of us go through.

Here is the list of 31 Blog Writing Prompts:

1. Write about values that matter to you.
2. Explain a problem in your industry and offer a solution.
3. Describe a time you were challenged and how you faced it.
4. Write about the idea of self-care and what it means to you.
5. Recount a tough lesson you’ve learned lately.
6. Tell a story about one of the following words: success, fulfillment, growth, and achievement.
7. Write about how a mentor has changed your perspective.

Some of these prompts are deep and could potentially cause some readers to get upset, scroll away from your post, or maybe provide a witty comment – who knows, but it shouldn’t matter because as bloggers we just want to get information out whatever that may be and it might not necessarily be everyone’s cup of tea, but you can’t please everyone right.

Thanks for stopping by this quick post, I will leave you with this thought, “Write from the heart, write as though you are right in front of the people you are speaking to, tell it like it is, be you.”
