Interesting Topics Vs. Writing Styles
Knowing what topics your target audience is interested in is key to attracting them to your reading materials.
You can choose to brand yourself as an author of a niche subject such as horror stories, business management or health and fitness. Or, you can choose to write about all types of subjects. The decision is purely individual. This can also extend to age groups. For example, children’s stories or niche groups such as brides and fisherman.
The subjects can be fictional as well. Even with fictional stories, it is a good idea to research real stories to inspire you as a writer so has a strong foundation. Then you can spice it up to make it fascinating.
Without conducting a readership poll, it is difficult to know why your audience is attracted to your articles, posts or books. Maybe they like your writing style. Perhaps you have a personable style that is less technical. Or maybe you use a lot of humor in your writings that helps your readers to make a connection with you.
Maybe it is the subject alone. If you write about something that is rare, you will certainly attract a segment of the reader population that is grateful to you for writing about this subject because information on the topic is rare to find. Or, they feel you have similar interests and they look forward to reading what you have to share. To them, it is like having a great conversation or resource.
Regardless of the form of writing your choose, you need to make yourself visible. There are many actions required to successfully attract a strong readership base, especially if what you write about is limited to articles.
This includes effectively marketing yourself at related blogs and article sites or establishing your own website or blog for the sole purpose of housing your own articles. You can even become a regular contributor to someone else’s website to establish your credibility and dedicated readership.
Whatever the reason, keep up the good work. Even if you change your style or topic, you may lose some readers but you will attract new readers as well. It is important that you enjoy what you write about in order for the information to remain fresh, lively, interesting, and maybe even entertaining.
As authors, a large part of who we are is poured into our writings. If we are feeling uninspired, it will show; not just in the quality of our work, but in the size of our readership. If we are looking to get published, this is critical. A publisher will not renew your contract if you cannot generate a readership.
That said, the exact opposite is true. If we are excited about sharing our knowledge, the information will pour from our fingertips in an endless stream of wisdom for all to enjoy.
Have you ever been in a room with someone who tells a story in such as way that draws you in to hear every word? Is it because the story itself is great or because of the way the person is telling it? In person, the way it is told is probably the case. People are attracted to positive, upbeat people because they make us feel positive too.
On paper, it is quite another story. For this reason, you need to write in an exciting and interesting way. Achieving that goal would be a daunting task if you were bored with the story at hand. So be true to yourself so you can be true to your readers.
