I think writing different things is key to keeping your writing & business fresh. Whether that means writing different content types or about different topics, it can help keep your brain interested & engaged.

If you’re not able to break out of a niche, then finding other creative outlets is important. Writing fiction or poetry can help, indulging in a hobby like knitting, beading, fixing cars, whatever can also help too. Anything that gets your mind working in a slightly different way than you’re used to.

You’ll come back to your writing & work refreshed and ready to go.

If you can’t afford the luxury of being creative with a topic, how do you keep yourself from burning out?

I can understand your reluctance to relive the niche boredom. I see the pluses and minuses of becoming a niche writer.

When I worked for a company that only marketed to doctors (plastic surgeons and dentists) and lawyers, I started to get bored with the copy. I then tried to find ways to get extra creative with the copy. It was interesting. :-)
