A New Year's Resolution for the eZine Reader
Looking for a new year's resolution? How about this:
I will write one OS/2 related article this year.
Be it for OS/2 Voice, one of the OS/2 portals, or the OS/2 eZine, if all of our readers take this to heart, there will
be over ten times as many new OS/2 articles on the web this year. More importantly, our regular contributors will
have a bit less to do.
But I Can't Write!
It doesn't matter. If you can research your article idea and organize the information a bit, our editors can work with
you to make you sound like a professional writer.
I Don't Know What to Write About
You use OS/2 don't you? Share your experiences with OS/2 products in the form of reviews. Solve a tough problem?
Make a how-to. Know someone who is doing something cool? Interview them about it. The articles don't have to
be long to be good. Still don't know what to write? Have a look at the eZine
Pressroom (http://www.os2ezine.com/pressroom.html) for a list of article ideas.
I Just Don't Have the Time
An article can take as little as an hour to put together. Longer or more complicated articles maybe 4 or 5. Take one
evening out of your year, skip a few reruns, and put some of your thoughts on paper. The OS/2 community will
appreciate your effort.
It Really Is Up To You
The OS/2 eZine is a community effort. Without the support of its readership, it will undoubtedly become like so many
other OS/2 websites, static museums to the past success of OS/2. We have a few great people who work hard and contribute
to the eZine regularly, and a few more who put in occasional articles, but from time to time we need to find new
talent. With a new year dawning, that time is now.
