Content development typically involves gathering useful information from various sources and pulling it together in a way that makes sense! The strategy is to research content, find something useful and relevant to your needs and then use it within the context of what you compose! As you can imagine this involves 'digging' through many sources to accumulate enough information which of course can take time! On the other hand why not research content for the purpose of allowing what you find to help you 'spawn' your own creative writing ideas! In this way you can be sure that what you create is truly unique and it can also spare you from sifting through so many sources! Here is the 3 step progression you would take when you research content for the purpose of simply developing your own creative writing ideas! Absorb Everything Don't simply skim for ideas but rather read the entire body of work to gain the entire perspective of the author so you can derive your own insights. Often our propensity for skimming leads to missing out on important points that can be dramatic stimulants to creative writing ideas! This one step alone can save you much time since the need to 'uncover' so many different sources is not required! It's amazing how much stimulation our own thinking can experience when we look into and consider the thoughts of others! More Ideas In most cases by being more 'thorough' in what you read you will usually generate multiple ideas and angles you can use! Often times the most useful information you can create deals more in perspectives and insights and not as much in news and facts. Writing in this way tends to be more thought provoking for the reader which helps to more deeply engage them in what they're viewing! Allowing your own creative juices to flow in this manner also makes it easier to record thoughts more fluidly thus making writers block less likely! Unique Content When you start to dig deep into the recesses of your own mind for insights, attitudes and personal perspectives it tends to distance you from the crowd! Unique and useful information is hard to find and even harder to create and when you do you've really got something to offer! Traditional content development methods involve using bits and pieces of useful information you've gathered from multiple sources. The strategy discussed above focuses more on having you research content for the purpose of allowing it to stimulate your own creative writing ideas! This strategy minimizes the amount of time needed to research content but instead allows you to draw multiple 'ideas' from fewer sources! In doing so you'll save time while also assuring yourself that what you create will be unique and useful information! This is why this is likely the best strategy for developing content you can use!
