Boo writer friends,

I am excited about Halloween-it's my favorite time of the year. Not only because of the ghouls, ghosts and all that candy that comes with it, either. I am also excited about writing, people!

During Halloween there's so much to write about. Here are some article ideas that you can market in almost any community-oriented magazine or newsletter. Watch me brainstorm here:

1) How to protect your kids during Halloween
2) Halloween origins and traditions
3) Pagan roots and Halloween
4) Protecting your pets during Halloween
5) How to recognize candy that has been tampered with
6) How to make a perfect Halloween costume
and more!

Check out my article on protecting kids during Halloween on www.loose-ends.net. You can find me under the name "newsscopp." You would have to sing in/register to read my article, but if you have small kids, it's worth it.

Also, for those of you who are into the things that go bump in the night, check out a copy of Dr. Bob Curran's book Vampires; a Field Guide to the Creatures that Stalk the Night. It's an awesome read for the Halloween night. Like I said before, Boo! Get to writing.
