Don't worry too much about having a totally unique topic -- definitely don't plagiarize somebody else's post or copy their ideas, but people still read my React intro even though that topic has been done a bunch of times. I had a different outlook on the subject, so I decided to write it anyways.

I couldn't agree more. How I manage to write at consistent times is I take a web page about a topic, like some documentation, and try to use my own words to explain it. Occasionally they explain a point so clearly that there's nothing more for me to do to improve it, so I quote it with a link to the original source, unless it's clear from my post which site I am referring to.
