> After I had written my first 30 articles, I thought I had said everything I wanted to say. That was three years ago, and yet, somehow I have continued putting out fairly regular content. This amazes me, because I do not know how I am doing it. Ideas just come, and many of them are actually good, meaning they have value to readers. Though most of my best writing does not attract exceptionally large numbers of readers, at times when I have been very lucky, a few of my articles have brought tens of thousands each to my website. This is an under-appreciated part of regular writing. If you want new ideas, one of the best ways to do that is to write. One way to uncover progressively deeper ideas is to stick to the same topic. This is not easy because in the back of your head may be a voice telling you to try to get more readers. It's a diversion. Go deep instead. The Internet is filled with surface-level discussions of just about every topic. What it will never have enough of are deep-dives written by an expert.
