Lately, I've been looking for ways I can energize my writing habits, and stimulate my work habits into better production at the same time. It's a little quiet around the office, and I've had a lot of trouble focusing - when the economy goes as far south as it has, my job gets very complicated and not really very much fun. I have been blogging about careers and resumes and so forth on a blog for my company, but I've been really struggling with topics there lately. So, I guess in an effort to give myself an avenue to write more, I've started guest posting in a couple of other places.
Rita from Surrender, Dorothy has a new gig as the Kansas City blogger over at BeingSavvy. She invited me to guest-post and I'm excited to have taken her up on it. Today I guest-posted about taking your grass clippings to drop off at stables and feed the horses instead of putting them at the curb for trash pick-up. Of course, someone instantly had something to say about that being a bad idea, go figure. I've also posted some articles over at WorkitMom!, and hopefully will be able to make something happen with the folks over at Wishpot (go Jessica!) If you don't know any of these sites, I fully recommend you take a looksee, I like them all.
So, all this extra writing will hopefully lead to something more interesting for me, too. I'm feeling a little stagnant at work, summer has really gone to my head, so I'm hoping the extra stimulation will get me back on track. We work better when we're busier, right?
Right?

Ohhhh, congrats on all your writing ops! I've been looking around too because I've been feeling the same way, but man, I'mm not sure I have the time lately.
Although I really, really, really want to branch out and be successful at this!
