Every article does not need to be a new topic or idea. Think about it: how many Die Hard and Lethal Weapon type movies are there? How many romantic comedies that all have the same plot? How many songs that cover the same exact topic - even the same exact event? Don't even get me started on books - think of the number of biographies and historical accounts of identical subjects by different authors - yet they all sell and they sell very well. If a topic is listed in Google a number of times that is a GOOD thing. It is an indicator of what will sell, A.K.A. "what readers are interested in." If you've ever published a serious work before (novel, textbook, etc) you know that agents, editors and publishers aren't looking for NEW material as much as they are seeking material that has demonstrated success. This is why we see so many of the same themes/topics in all types of entertainment and information. Come across a title or article similar to the one you want to write? So what?! Write it better. Expand on the ideas. Insert a little bit of editorial. Make it yours. Different readers respond to different styles of writing, so it's okay if you cover something that's already been done. But otherwise, great post and very detailed. Thanks! -Russ I strongly disagree with your comments on original content.

You can teach someone how to be creative only if the person was born with creativity. I think creative writing is not for everyone.
