Does this situation where you started writing a discussion post here then after one or two lines, you delete it, thinking it is not an interesting topic anyway?
It happened to me since this afternoon when I tried to think of a post here. I started with a topic, then I deleted it. I just can not find the right "inspiration" to go with it and come with a good post.
Now I am sleepy so I do not have to delete this one.
Do you also experience the same?
Have a good night, good morning, good afternoon to all!

@acelawrites I always would first take note of an idea in my phone . And when i arrive the office or home , i put it in my word documents name For Postings and put the title. Then if i am in a mood , i expound on them .

You are wise, you gave me an idea. It is because some moments, we feel it is good to post it, and sometimes, we don' t feel like having it here. Thanks my friend.

I've done that numerous times.
Not because I didn't think they were interesting but because I thought they were a little too controversial for this site.

I can relate to that situation Mike; when I think I might violate some rules.It is because we are caring for this site so it would last for so long.

@seldom , that could cause you a bad moment, I think. So you had to rewrite it again?It is really good to have backup copies.

Hmmm. Same here. It is evident on the number of discussions I already posted. I will read more so I can have more ideas.

I don't make post specially if I don't have something in my head or it hasn't been constructed completely. Sometimes I couldn't make one because it conflicts something of your daily house hold chores. Yes, it is normal to delete drafted one, inspiration depends on the things that happens today or what you suddenly think.

So true, sometimes when we are doing offline works at home or anywhere, ideas crop out of our heads, but then when you are in front of the computer, you think otherwise; that it's not a good topic for discussion.

I do not make drafts, I think or thought of something already then type and post that's why I have very few started discussions. It's pictures that I take in advance, edit or reduce size.

It is a good technique, because there are moments when good topics come in a flash so you have to grab and print it here.

There are really "good days and bad days" for writers; we just wish there should never be lazy days.

It happens, when we feel lethargic, we just go away; but the "writer's instinct" pulls us to write again.

Sometimes topics we think are good for us would not turn out good for others; but as long as it does not violate any policies here, then go on with it because some people would really appreciate it.

@acelawrites that is why I write whenever I feel myself in good mood. Have you reached the payout limit?

There are moments when we think a post can be good or not, depending on our emotion or motivation.
