Hello, my brother and sister bloggers and writers. The Old Soldier is back in action after being MIA with carpal tunnel in the right wrist. I’m still not completely healed but I needed to get back in the fight for my self-respect as a blogger and a writer. So, here I am.
My blog, Pittsburgh Flash Fiction Gazette www.pittsburghflashfictiongazette.com continues to send my Triond content eight to ten hits every day even though because of the carpal tunnel I’ve only managed one or two very short postings a day for the past ten days. I can’t wait until I’m %100 again so I can put up four or five postings a day. But that means I’m going to have to come up with a lot of content every day, content for the Gazette and Triond. What’s a blogger and a flash fiction writer suppose to do? Luckily, I have a great personal philosophy that never lets me down. Let me share it with you.
My philosophy is, “The best writing ideas are free.” Don’t believe me? In this article I’ve written about carpal tunnel, blogging, writing for Triond and the struggle every blogger and writer has with coming up with good writing ideas. And you thought I was just talking about myself.
Actually, I was talking about every blogger and every writer. The subject is greater than the individual blogger or writer.
So, when the Old Soldier decided to submit some content to Triond today or else, I had to come up with a good writing idea. See what I mean? I didn’t have far to look. And my friends, neither do you. The best good writing ideas are free.

Count me into that idea my friend. You really have a way with words. I knew one when I read an article from a soldier-writer who have braved the battlefields of Nam, to hell and back.

Hello, Will:
It’s good to be publishing again on Triond. You don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone. I missed the community.

I haven’t published on triond for a long while, but you got me thinking. ahem, for my own philosophy”it’s not about the money you earn, but the respect.’
Thanks a lot!=]

As far as I can tell, all bloggers and writers struggle to come up with a constant flow of content. So, I thought the subject would make a good article.

I forgot to mention that publishing on Triond is also fun. Reading what others publish can be fun. Triond can be informative and fun.

Good aspect on the situation, I to wrote about a experience I went through recently, i was surprised at how many people already started to view it, and how many people were really commenting back with relevant and helpful suggestions and thoughts.

Hi, Uma:
I’m feeling better every day. Actually, since I have not been able to publish much on Triond I’ve had more time to explore the community and to leave more comments and that’s a good thing.

Hello, Beth Suess:
My brother was a wonderful painter in his youth. His paintings looked like photos. He gave up painting. He told me painting was easy. Coming up with a good idea to paint was the difficult part. No doubt many bloggers and writers have the same problem. I know I do.

Whatever the individual blogger or writer may be going through most readers have gone through the same thing or something like it. This is the beauty of writing.

Tony, how true, how true. Sometimes it pays to have that military can-do attitude.
Writing about the constant struggle to come up with a good idea to blog or write about is always a relevant topic when the audience is bloggers and writers.

Buma, thank you.
I look forward to publishing on Triond as often as possible, maybe three times a week. And when I’m not publishing I like reading what other members publish.

LOVELY HONEY:
Coming up with a good idea to write about is something most of us can relate to. If I could come up with a good idea every day I’d publish on Triond every day; but I can’t.
