The flexibility of article marketing is a wonderful thing. If you have your own business and you write exclusively for yourself, then your time is YOURS. You don’t have to worry about deadlines, and you don’t have to push a time clock or answer to anyone but yourself.

Writing articles can be a breeze at times, when the flow of ideas seems to come easily. However, it can also be challenging, this happens to all writers. Where is your next article idea going to come from? If you’re an avid article marketer, you know where I’m coming from.

Below are just a few tips to encourage the flexibility of article writing

* Take a notebook everywhere you go. It happens too many times, you’re in the supermarket line flipping through magazines, you’re picking up your child from school and you run into a mom that you know and a conversation initiate, or you’re at a church meeting discussing fundraisers. These are the times that ideas transpire. This way you have something to write down ideas.

* Keep a recorder close by at all times. I’ve heard of many article marketers doing this. These small recorders conveniently fit in the palm of your hand. When ideas come, simply record your ideas, paragraphs, or article titles.

* Go out to a coffee house or restaurant by yourself, listen and observe. Take a laptop or notebook with you. Perhaps the group of people next to you are engaged in an interesting conversation. Or maybe looking at the menu strikes up an idea for a particular recipe or cooking article. Fresh ideas are everywhere.

* Take advantage of those nights when you can’t sleep. Get up and do some writing, especially if your thoughts happen to be focused on article ideas. Even if it’s just to write down some ideas or a few titles. I myself, have done this many times. I have to get up and jot down an idea or two, because I know that in the morning, it will be gone. Keeping a small notepad at your bedside is a great idea as well.

* Observe what everyone is talking about on the various social networks. The writing mode often comes easily to me while on Twitter. I see home business associates asking questions and others answering. Observe how they handle themselves while offering their best tips or advice. If I happen to come up with the perfect title or idea for a blog post or perhaps an article for a client on my Twitter sessions, then I stop everything and open a new document and start writing.

* Sometimes I write articles on paper first and then type them out on the computer. In fact, this used to be the usual way of writing for me. I’ve often heard others say they’ve done the same. Relax in a park, watch your favorite program on television, or maybe spend a peaceful evening with your spouse. Ironically, these are the times that ideas hit. Take out that pad of paper and let the ideas flow!

* Observe WHEN you are the most creative. This may be early mornings, or late afternoons. Or maybe late at night after the little ones are tucked into bed. It really does make a difference if you notice when your mind relaxes and various perspectives begin to surface.

You can literally take article writing and marketing everywhere you go. Take full advantage of the flexibility of article marketing. Remember, the really good ideas seem to creep up at the oddest times.
