I need to go to the library this coming week and do some research. How odd that I don't go to the library much, but considering all the free books I get for review, I haven't had need to check out any books in awhile.
And I won't be checking out any books this time either...probably. Although I might see what cookbooks they have. I'm just going to browse the magazines and make lists of ideas I might pitch and what publications I might query. I think I need to branch out a bit because my writing is too focused on travel and I have more experience in that topic than anything else. And now that circumstances are different and I no longer have Europe waiting outside my door, I need to pursue some other topics.
So...I suppose I need to sit down and make a list of things I may be interested in writing more about. I have done some art and history writing to some extent, seeing as how that's part of travel writing, but maybe I can give more attention to those topics. Kathy has been telling me that I should do more food writing. Or maybe I can tap into some of the topics I wrote about in grad school, but just not in an academic way. Lots of possibilities...
