Hello.
Here are some ideas for January 2017 features. Some of them may be in your diary already. Some of them may be added
to your diary after reading this. Some features may be written by in-house
journalists. But maybe, just maybe, I can write something for you.
Let me know what you want, word
count, deadline and fee and I will get to work. (A summary of my published work
appears below.)
Here's the January 2017 list and, if I
can help, I look forward to hearing from you. joecushnan@aol.com
