All About Writing
Archive for October, 2008
What can you write about this beautiful photo? October is one of my favorite months, and there is so much beauty to write about. Freelance writers usually think ahead about subjects sometimes six months ahead, or even a year, but today I am taking the day off from thinking about work to know this day, and all of October’s gifts.

Enjoy October while you can. ~Kerri
Maybe today you could think about Autumn, and write about it in some way. It could just be your daily pages, or how to shape something seasonal into an essay. It’s hard to write about Autumn, and the feelings we have about it in the spring. The opposite is true, but if you’re a freelance writer, you have to now be thinking six months ahead for articles, and as much as a year for the highest paying publications.
If you thought about Autumn today, and wrote it all down, you’d have that writing to come back to, and there are millions of subjects to write about that fit with Autumn. I can think of these right now: trees, nature, colors, apples, festivals, school, weather, coolness, elections, foods….and the list can go on and on. ~Kerri
