How is somebody supposed to do this? I’ve tried to pull inspiration from nowhere, but it isn’t working! Thinking of ideas is hard.

     One of the problems with making up ideas is that some of them are just plain terrible. Would writing an essay about how peanut butter isn’t a fast airplane be interesting? Everybody already knows that! How about explaining why favorite color is your favorite? For me, it just is! How am I going to explain that?

     Also, just because you think of a good idea doesn’t mean you can do it. I once thought to write about dogs. It was a good idea, but the thing was, I knew almost nothing about them. How am I going to write a expository essay about something I know nothing about?

     I have no idea how people can think of ideas, but it is impossible for me.
