Find your niche. Do you know a lot about one topic? Sometimes, it doesn't help being a multi-nerd. I'd say go for something that is topical - the release of a major game or movie, or the premiere or finale of a new season.

I've written one article so far, it's in the final phases before publication. It took me a long time to come up with a good topic, and I'm still not 100% happy with the finished result. I used to write a lot, but after graduating uni, I've been rusting away. It took a lot more effort than I thought. It doesn't help that our main admin is a robot who cranks out hilariously good articles daily, about a wide range of topics.
