4 Engaging Way's for Writing Fillers for Magazines

In order to get a better idea about several types of Writing,
in one of my previous posts titled:
Buying a Laptop for your Big and Small Writing Goals I already wrote about things like
Greeting Card Writing and things like Writing 'Letters to the Editor' or 'Fillers'
and how those types of writing could be a possible way to
Open the door to possible other Writing for Magazines, also in
The Secret to Writing Success (that you can also find
on a special page here on the top left corner of this blog) where I wrote
about some of my first Magazine Writing Adventures
that actually got published.


Starting with
Magazine Research

In that particular posts about Writing Goals you could also read about the important step of doing
Magazine Research something that you need to do when you want to do Freelance Magazine Writing

It looks like, Magazine Research
isn't only usefull for writing Articles
for Magazines, your Magazine Research
might also possibly generate all kinds of possible ideas
for for example 'Letters to the Editor'
or for 'Fillers'

Creating
a Productive Mindset

In order to get motivated for writing fillers and
to create a Productive Mindset, I have done
a little more research into how to create
'Fillers' for Magazines, and how
to think up way's to actually 'Produce' them.

1) already wrote a little about..., Magazine Research

(Study Markets,- Guidelines, - Lenght, - Style, - Viewpoints,
- Photo's and also the type of Advertising in the magazine
can give you some insights and possible ideas
about the type of readers you can expect.)

2) having a little Note Book alway's with you for
being able to note down thoughts and ideas.

(For example it wouldn't be the first time that in
a conversation I want to quote some brilliant quote, while
only knowing that it's brilliant for some reason, without
knowing the exact words, while with a Note Book you can
alway's instantly find back such brilliant gems :))

3) Start creating an Ideas File Folder to collect ideas.

4) Using the Internet to search for interesting
News snippets, Facts & Figures

When you have interesting tips or experiences
you like to share about writing Fillers,
I am Happy to see Your Comments

You are also welcome to - for example - share what your Writer's Kit Looks like.

Greeting Card Writing and Cartoons.

Last year I wrote a post about Greeting Card Writing
I also frequently like to write new posts with building
on previous posts by also
writing about some of those previous posts
and that way Re-purpose Content

This Re-purposing Content also
gave me a possible new idea for my Greeting Card Writing because I used to do a
lot of cartoon drawing and must have several Sketch books full of
Cartoons so I might have some drawings that I can Re-purpose/Re-do
for making Greeting Cards or possibly use my
Digital Camera for creating Greeting Cards

'Have You Ever Done
Any Greeting Card Writing?
Or Possibly a Link
to a Site with your Work?'

New Years Resolution: Buying a Laptop for your Big & Small Writing Goals.

When you Buy a Laptop for for example starting a Freelance Writing Career,
you can have Big Goals for example become a
Freelance Magazine Writer, only chances are that it won't be easy to break in with
writing Articles for any of the Big Magazines.


Magazine Research Advantage(s)

Since for writing for Magazines, Researching those
Magazines is very important first step. A way to directly
use your Magazine Research is to write a 'Letter
to the Editor' or 'Readers Letter'

It also has several other interesting sides to it, first
you get a chance that you actually get published and for example
also earn some of the possible 'Fruits' involved. (for example
I once won an expensive After Shave for my Readers Letter)

You usually want to write your letter basically as a Comment
on something you read in the Magazine showing the Editor that
you are familiar with the Magazine and read it. (it can also
help you build a 'Clipping File' with your
Published work.)


Readers Letters
To Open Doors

Also when you want to write a Filler or an Article
for that Magazine, with having had your Readers Letter
Published in that Magazine, chances are that you already
somewhat opend the door for more!

Anyway reasons enough to Buy your self a
Great Laptop for Chistmas to
complement your Writer's Kit don't you think?


Just Have a Look
At Some of Those Great Laptops!

You don't Instantly have to buy one, you can also
Just Have a Look at Some of those Laptops to get
a feel about what they cost, or just to find out about
the Laptop Specifications you
would like to go for.

Conclusion:

When you want to build a Freelance Writing Career, or when you just
enjoy writing, looking for a great Laptop and
Finding the Right Laptop for you are definitely things to consider doing.

'Those are Just a few of the Many Reasons
You would like to Buy a Laptop don't you think?'

'Btw, when you found this Post helpful,

What Else Than a Laptop Do You Need for - Your - Writer's Kit?

In a previous posts I wrote about
Greeting Card Writing and I am also
in the process of feeling the pressure of Christmas being
around the Corner, so asking myself what to do with
my own Christmas Card Production this year and my own
Greeting Card Writing ???

'Usually I make my own Christmas Cards,
only currently I still don't yet
have a clue what to do...., I trust that
I will get a great idea when I least
expect it, it usually works that way :)'

Anyway,

Recently I also had an other 'BrainStorm' and came up with
the Idea to created a Special New Page for you
that you can find near the Top of this Blog or by clicking:
Your Writer's Kit

It's basically a few things that I think are Great
Investments or else possibly would make
Interesting Chritsmas Gifts for yourself
or for somebody you know that wants to Write.

Do you have any ideas about what
you would like to include into Your Writer's Kit ?

(Like for example a Water Cooker for your Tea
instead of a Coffee Maker or Espresso Machine...???)

Open Up Books, - Laptops and Greeting Cards.

You know I am on a Quest to create more
value for you on this Blog, and In one of the Comments on my
Previous Post I read something about Appointment Cards, someting that reminded me
of a possible interesting Topic that you might find valuable,
to write a little post about an other type of Cards,
a post about Greeting Card Writing
Because sometime ago I listened to an intersting Podcast about
Greeting Card Writing
that Peaked my Interest, also because in the
Past I Won a lot of Slogan Contests and and also because
of a post I did some time ago about the 'Surprise Element' of
'Turning Pages' that made
me realise the Power of 'Turing a Page'
or the Power of 'Opening a Card'.
(Something that I do think is also closely
related to The Secret to Writing Success)

It's even possible to create such an 'Surprise Element'
with using a ('Flipping') 3D Effect as you
can find out more about at: www.snapily.com


To Give You an Idea

When opening my Laptop on gcswriters.blogspot.com
I found some info about 'Greeting Card & Slogan Writing'
that you might find interesting, and on my digitalcamera-ideas.blogspot.com you can find
a Post titled: Ideas for Making Money with Your Camera with also some
Greeting Card Companies where you can submit your
Greeting Card Ideas.

Or you might like to have a look at some
Greeting Card Markets at:
www.writerswrite.com/greetingcards or have a look at a
Greeting Card Association such as:
www.greetingcard.org

I also did a little more research
for you and discovered a book about
Greeting Card Writing that I haven't read myself but
that cought my eyes since it matches the Colors on this Blog :)

You can find an Image
of this Book here below:

You can simply click on the Link/Image
(or 'Hoover' over it with your mouse)

Freelance Writing for Greeting Card Companies: 2nd Edition

Your Blog As a - Platform - To Work From

When I look at the Most Popular Posts on this blog (that
you can see here on the left of this blog) one of the Popular posts
is about Writers Workspaces that Inspire
also the posts titled:
Writing Articles To Build Your Brand
and ASSIGNMENT: How You can Make your Blog 'Sticky' are posts with
just a little actual 'Readers Participation' as you can also read
about in an other vitally important post on this blog
(that actually got Comments) titled:

Conversational

Starting Up
a Writing Business

So for what building my brand is concerned
recently I wrote something about How
you can start up a Business without
the need for big Startup Costs:

On that Blog I even Write about what can make a
Home Business a - Happy - Home Business as you can
read about in a post titled:
What Makes a - Happy - Home Business?

On my - Home Business - Blog I frequently write posts about Starting
your own Home Business, especially about how
with Affiliate Marketing you can even
Start your own Online Business with the advantage that you
hardly need to have any Start Up Costs, and you
can even Start it up as just an extra income stream
while you are working in a Job. I could for example just
start with for example a Writing Blogspot

With a Blog you can create a great - Platform -
for all kinds of interesting Entrepreneurial Activities,
for example you could use your Blog with just starting
to provide 'Content' that's interesting for a specific niche market,
get the right Visitors to your Blog (Targeted Traffic)
Than you can also Start with (pre) selling Affiliate Products
on your (niche) Blog(s).

It helps when you Know something
about it, like for example since I do write on
a Laptop myself, so for example
on this Blog I like to (pre) sell those.

And for example put up an Image Link
like here below that can bring you to an Online Webshop
where you can buy them.

On my - Home Business - Lifestyle Blog
you can also read more about
Using Your Laptop Profitably

Public Speaking

You can also offer all kinds of other Products
and Services, for example with the help of
readers feedback you can discover how you can for example
create some positive changes (or look for) interesting 'Tailor Made' (info) products offering Solutions to Problems for a specific niche,
or you could offer things like Consultancy, Events, Courses/Trainings,
or you could even put up a special
page where you can communicate that people can hire you
for Public Speaking on (Tele) Seminars
and things like that. I do think that most Successful Bloggers
actually earn a lot more money with such
'Back End' Products than with Only
selling Affiliate Products.


Conclusion:

Today you have seen that this Blog actually has
Some Popular Posts you don't want to Miss Out on! :)

That you - amung other things - learned from it:

- How you can do Blogging and Affiliate Marketing

- How you can build your own - Happy - Home Business with relatively little Start Up Costs.

- That you can even build it as an extra income stream
even when you already work in a Job.

- What makes a - Happy - Home Business.
(also see: What Makes a - Happy - Home Business?)

- That a Laptop is a Great Investment for
building your own Home Business.

(You don't Instantly have to buy one, you can also
Just Have a Look at Some of those Laptops to get
a feel about what they cost, or just to find out about
the Laptop Specifications you possibly might like to go for,
or would like to save some money for.)

Using Your Laptop for Filling Your - Time Wasting - Productively.

Sometimes it is hard to avoid - Time Wasting - for example
when you have to wait for something, spending some unproductive
waiting time, some time ago on my Travel Blog I wrote a special
post about how you can spend your waiting time productively when you are
on an airport. for example when you have to
Wait long for your Luggage


Using TV Commercial Breaks
Productively and Profitably

Also watching TV usually is an other example
of - Time Wasting - especially when you wait
for some of the long commercial breaks in it.

That is why Sometimes when I am watching a Movie on tv, I noticed
that sometimes I am just wasting my time - as a zombie -
watching meaningless commercials that mean nothing to my life
while waiting for the Movie to continue. Sometimes those
commercial breaks take an awful loooooong time.

So since I already have my Laptop on the table beside my couch
I found a solution, to use commercial breaks to do some
writing using my time more productive.

It actually inspired me to write a Short Story about it
that you can find at: 'Laptop Fan Adventure'

Because the constant stream of images on TV can be a great
'Randomizer' for constantly getting new fresh ideas
'from out of no where'. That way you might even
turn such a potential - Time Wasting - into something
productive and possibly even profitable by for example doing
Blogging and Affiliate Marketing or you
might be able to write a Short Story you can Sell

Although theoretically you can be a great writer
only using a pen and paper, using a Laptop can have so much more benefits
for for example doing research making your Writing Life so much more convenient....,


Using Your Laptop
for Creating Profits

When - besides for example already spending money
on things like Books & Writing Trade Magazines - you have trouble
to also spend your hard earned money on things like
an expensive Laptop, you might want to see it as
a great Basic Investment you can do for your
- Writing Business - (or your Happy Home Business)
and see your Laptop as an excellent Investment
to be able to bring your Writing Business
to a Higher Level!

Clicking the Laptop-link or Image-link will bring you to
well known Amazon, so Go Ahead - no time to waste -
just click on the Image-link here below have a look in
their Webshop to see if there is a Laptop you might want to buy for - your -
Blogging, Affiliate Marketing, Short Story Writing, Freelance Writing etc. etc.

'Or How About
Using Your Laptop for Travel Writing...!!!???'

In other words reasons enough
to have a look at a great Laptop
