What should I write about?

Since creating this account, I have been reading and soaking in so many posts and articles, and have been enjoying my time here. So now I feel like I should start writing on this platform and join the crowd of wonderful writers. However, there is one small problem…

I Don’t Know What I Should Write About

The usual advice is to write about your interests. Well, that is quite a few. I like gadgets, video games, anime, comics and cryptocurrencies, just to name a few. Currently I am a little obsessed with reading up about personal finance, how to retire early, how to make a side income, and how to save more. Maybe I can talk about that too. Should I write about all of them, or should I pick one to focus on?

And how long should my posts be? Is this too short? Or is this just right? Am I boring my readers?

So many questions!

Well, I guess it will take some time before I can find my niche to focus on. In the mean time, I guess I will heed the advice of writing about my interests, and we shall move forward from there.

I hope my readers (if there are any) do not mind while I try to fit in here. Maybe I should write up a proper introductory post about myself next time, then maybe you guys can help me find myself.

In the meantime, I shall go and read up about writing and engaging my audience. Hopefully this will be a journey I enjoy. It seems like there is more to being a regular writer than just write. This is not as easy as it seems.

I would like to know what were your experience writing on a public platform for the first time? Do you already have a subject in mind to focus on right from the start? Or do you also have your doubts such as myself right now?

Tell me this is normal.
