  1. I Suggest You Read A Book →

    I currently subscribe to 83 feeds most of which are blogs and I’ve become adept at reading them daily but I also always occupy myself with books or magazines because clearly they will serve as a funnel to breed great ideas that you can later write about.

    Brian Clark of Copyblogger has some invaluable information on the value of not just relying on blogs as a source of inspiration for your writing. It’s truly a great way to break the cycle of repetitiveness on the web -

    So many people are reading RSS feeds and joining the conversation and blogging about what other people are blogging about and guess what, it’s really hard to stand out when you do that type of thing.

    So here’s an idea, read more books, read more magazines, take in other media and then add your own perspective to the new ideas that you’re exposed to. And all of a sudden you have a fresh outlook that no one else is blogging about.
