Are you ever sitting at your computer with your eyes in a blank stare and your fingers ready at the keyboard, but you're stumped for ideas on what your next email newsletter article should be about? Below are my top 15 ideas to help spark your creative writing imagination to crank out your next ezine article!

For this article, I'm going to use my favorite sport of Racquetball to illustrate article TITLE examples for each of my ezine article ideas below. You can just replace the topic of "Racquetball" with your niche expertise.

#1 Ezine Article Idea: Give Tips

Most people love to eat small "info-snacks" so feed them what they want. Give them quick tips or small bytes of a strategy to solve a problem or create an opportunity.

Example Titles:

#2 Ezine Article Idea: How To Articles

When in doubt, return to "How To" articles as there are always an endless list of things you could teach your target audience.

Examples Titles:

#3 Ezine Article Idea: Do an Interview

Become the "Reporter" and you will never run out of quality content ideas. Find someone with an expertise that your niche audience would value and setup an interview. You can do this via telephone, email, live chat or in person.

Example Titles:

#4 Ezine Article Idea: Make a List

Lists are easy and fun to do. For a great example, check out what I'm doing today for Ezine-Tips. I ran out of ideas so I decided to make a list of ideas for you. Pretty creative, no? : Your lists can be numbered or bullet points of information.

Example Titles:

#5 Ezine Article Idea: Product Reviews

You can review your products and give examples of how people use your products or get more out of them. Anything that adds value to your current clients may also be valued by prospective clients. These can get cheesy if you sell too hard, so better to just give strategies and techniques on how to leverage your products value.

Example Titles:

#6 Ezine Article Idea: Other People's Product Reviews

If you an affiliate marketer, this is a perfect strategy for you. Give a comprehensive review of other people's products and show the pro's and the con's of the product and its application.

Example Titles:

#7 Ezine Article Idea: Use Humor or Comedy to Entertain Your Audience

Tell a joke or a humor thing that happened recently. Share funny things that have happened when people used your products in the wrong way. Make fun at how absurd your business can be at times or under heavy stress. Your readers will be entertained and relate to the human side of you.

Example Titles:

#8 Ezine Article Idea: Tell a Story or Spin a Tale

I recommend telling a "SHORT" story. Ezine readers do not have time to read 7 page stories any more. Keep it short, get to the point, interject some fun in your story and spin your tale.

Example Titles:

#9 Ezine Article Idea: News Excerpts As a Lead In

Grab a news byte of information to lead into your article or story. Fair use doctrines allow you to copy a short handful of sentences provided you give proper credit and don't alter the excerpt. Give your analysis or comments about the story.

Example Titles:

#10 Ezine Article Idea: Get Visual

Include charts, graphs, powerpoint presentations, check lists, short video clips or anything to visually add value to your article.

Example Titles:

#11 Ezine Article Idea: Get Other Experts To Contribute Articles

There are plenty of other experts in your niche that are more than willing to give you articles for free in exchange for a resource box below their article that promotes their website address. EzineArticles.com can help you find a perfect match.

Example Titles:

#12 Ezine Article Idea: Recycle Old Articles

Articles can become outdated but base concepts are often timeless by nature. Go back into your archive of articles and refresh them with new and updated information.

Example Titles:

#13 Ezine Article Idea: Hire An Ezine Writer

There are plenty of ghost writers willing to work for a penny to a buck per word. Often times the lower cost ghost writers can pen excellent articles but you should do the TITLE for the articles or generate the theme for them to work with.

Example Titles:

#14 Ezine Article Idea: Word or Phrase For The Day

There is always a new word to learn. Share a common term from your niche and define it well giving examples of its use.

Example Titles:

#15 Ezine Article Idea: Use A Holiday

Holiday's or "On This Day In History" are great idea generators for new article content possibilities. Chase's Calendar of Events is quite popular for defining holidays and events.

Example Titles:
