Maui Writers Conference online
One of these days I am going to make my escape and go to the Maui Writers Conference. I have got announcements for it several times over the years, but have never had the money to be able to go. Now I am seriously thinking about attending the conference online.
I visited the website and discovered that the Maui Writers Conference has an online version they offer for less than $20 a month. The only drawback that has me uneasy is the difficulty in canceling the subscription. While it is easy enough to sign up, you need to submit your request to cancel the automatic renewals in writing by email, mail, or fax. I would much prefer being required to resubscribe every month than to have to jump through hoops if I decide I want to cancel the subscription.

Wedding Articles
If you, or someone that you know, are going to be getting married this year, then it could be a wonderful chance to do a little hands on research for a number of articles if not a full book. There are a few magazines out there, such as Modern Bride and Today's Bride, that focus on weddings. Keep a journal of your experiences either as a bride, a groom or any other member of the wedding and then share your experiences on the event in the form of articles targeted to magazines that specialize in weddings. Be sure you read some back issues to be certain you understand their needs, and make sure to request writer's guidelines. I'll share some contact information for a few magazines in this area to help you get started.
Looking for ideas for articles?
Here are a few freebies for you on article ideas for wedding related articles that you might write. How about the history of the wedding band? Or maybe a guide to the hottest designs for wedding bands? Maybe a comparison to the pros and cons of buying brand new wedding bands vs buying used ones or using ones your grandparents or someone handed down to you? Maybe an article on wedding bands from the first steps on how to pick the perfect wedding band up through presentation of the wedding band at the wedding? Or a sewing article on creating a hand made ring bearer's pillow?
