This can be one of the most frustrating problems especially if you are writing for an assignment (e.g. a term paper in school, or under deadline for an article) and you cannot think of a subject. Or you have a subject, but do not know how to approach it - be expansive or limiting, reporting or analytical, humorous or serious, etc.?
