Passion is one of the greatest gifts for writing anything.They say if you want to write, then write about whatever you are passionate about. What sort of hobbies do you participate in? Are you into arts, crafts, entertainment such as movies and live theater? Perhaps your health is a big concern at this point and nutrition and exercise are key to your treatment plan. Do you have an interest in learning about a new culture or language? Do you like to travel? Do you have a special needs child with challenges beyond your knowledge and capabilities?
As you learn about these new things, write about them. You don't have to write a novel, but you can keep a notebook handy to jot down your thoughts along the way. Then compile those thoughts into an essay or short story that can later be used to develop devotionals, magazine articles, or as part of an anthology.
Have others, besides your mother, friends, and other family members, read what you wrote and ask for a critique and corrections. Polish it up and don't be afraid to submit your work for publication, remembering to always follow the guidelines that are usually posted on the website. You may get surprised and actually get published.
