Writer’s Block - I need ideas!

June 06th 2007

Sorry for the lack of updates, but I’ve been suffering from writer’s block. I’ve sat down at the computer and went to my site ready to write a story, but the subjects I think of just sound kind of boring. This site is called “Everyday France” and I guess many days are in fact kind of boring. And I don’t want this site to end up being a diary like many other blogs.

One thing that kind of slowed me down was that a reader kindly notified that my articles were being stolen and illegally published on another blog. Apparently my site isn’t the only one, he’s stealing lots of others too. So far attempts at contacting him have gone unanswered. The next step? Filing a “Digital Millenium Copyright Act” violation notice with his provider. Great, more work that I don’t have time for. We’ll see if this post ends up on his site, that will be pretty funny if it does.

So, to get me out of this writer’s block, I am looking for ideas. Please leave a comment and let me know what you’d like to hear about. And if there are no suggestions, I will have to assume that there is a lack of interest.

I’ve been debating on a change in format, or actually an additional format. But I’d like to see what you come up with first. So let me have it!

    Hi Michael,

    What about places to spend vacation.
    Why french people prefer to spend their vacation in poor countries? Because personally, I can’t have fun next to people who are starving.

    Sure enough, my post about writer’s block was copied by the guy stealing my content! I’m trying to think of a way to have fun with this one, let me know if you have ideas.

    Wow, that’s pretty awful of that person! At least you know he thinks your blog has substance and is pretty interesting.
