Some people are full of ideas. Others run dry all too easily
Are you a veritable mine of blog post and newsletter article ideas? Or do you dread your daily blog post and detest writing your monthly newsletter?
If you’re lost in a creative desert here’s my top 6 places to find copywriting inspiration:
- breaking news – Twitter is a great place to catch trending topics
- BBC Radio 4 is full of scarily intelligent people talking about extremely interesting things
- New Scientist magazine covers the science bit, from economics to sociology, biology to genomics, astrophysics to chemistry, artificial intelligence, space travel, robotics and nano-technologies… something for everyone
- subscribe to the best of your your sector’s trade press
- buy ‘The Week’ magazine, a little gem that condenses the world’s most important top news in one neat weekly publication
- search http://www.theonion.com/ for irreverent up-to-the-minute US content fodder
