June 8, 2005

Okay, I'm going to repeat something and add a little something to yesterday.

I've got a few hestiant " I'm not a great writer, but if you think... " kind

of notes today. So let me reassure you again...

There are a ton of people knowledgeable in one field or another on this

list but are worried about their writing abilities " it's probably not good

enough... " STOP IT RIGHT NOW! You have knowledge that the readers want to

have. Share it. So what if it's not perfect. I don't know of a single

writer anywhere that hasn't had to be edited for something. Don't be shy,

if it needs a little help, it'll get a little help, if it needs more than a

little, it will get it. The point is, you have something to say that folk

want to read about.

WHY should you share it... well, let's see. 1) it's good practice to write

2) it expands other peoples horizons and knowledge and 3) it spreads the

word about you and your business. Aromatic Sage is now read in over 50

countries and everytime you write, I put your link in and that's an

opportunity for folk all over the world to come and see your website.

This is a magazine for holistic folk to gather more information. I can't

write it, I have a narrow knowledge base. You folk on the other hand,

combined have a MASSIVE amount of knowledge that shared is amazing. Hiding

your light under a bushel does you no good and enlightens no one. so

PLEASE, get over the shyness and offer your articles. I promise I don't

bite and the readers are always glad to have informative articles to read.

So. Know a natural way to keep aphids from devoring my brussels sprouts?

Got a great method for drying herbs, able to help a baby with colic, got

great ways to help with menopause probbies, can tell folk about

reflexology, how to do Reiki, help with bronchial infections, got help for

ant infestations... send it to me. I will thank you and so will the readers

in over 50 countries!

AND DON " T WORRY ABOUT BEING FLIPPING PERFECT! Got an article on how to deal

with perfection or even obssive compulsion Disorder.... The list of

subjects is endless!

And many thanks to those of you who have already offered, I'm just

delighted!

Cheers!
