    If you wanted to write for Halloween, you should have done so in August.

    Now is the time to write things for December and January

      I know people say you should write a few months ahead. But, in actual experience, I'm finding a fresh seasonal post gets more traffic than something published months ahead. I'm promoting my Halloween content which has been posted a year ago and new-er content  (posted a month ago) and new content posted this week. The newest content is getting noticeably more traffic. Established posts may be in Google but that doesn't mean they are on top of the shuffle. Google will rate fresher posts higher than months old (or older) content.

    Good for you, lou2212.  I am not ready to start reading about Thanksgiving or Christmas yet!  Can we get through the current holiday without the influence of others?  We actually saw Christmas stuff for sale the other day. They just keep moving it back further and further.  Let's see some scarey stuff to highlight the holiday that is currently upon us!

    I already have!  smile  Albeit a bit older articles, but still, everyone who has come by has tried them.  smile

    planning a scary party for the guests this year.... dark forest and ghostly creatures coming out of there at random times throughout the night.  I have to be careful, or I'll scare myself silly!!  lol

    It's never to late to write about a festive topic  smile  so, write away!

    I went on a ghost walk in Gettysburg a year ago, that was the bomb!!  Went on one here a few years back and someone caught pictures of me with all kinds of orbs around me.

    I've got a few Halloween posts done. I might write something else before the 31st. I have a couple of ideas but I've decided I'm too sleepy to plug in and work on anything else tonight.

    I posted Halloween ASCII art almost a year ago. I've been promoting those Halloween posts on Twitter and such today. So I did get something done.

    I like photographing abandoned houses. I haven't done a tour. That would be nice. But, a bit hard to stick to the plan/ schedule now that I'm used to the freedom of taking off to explore or settling down to take my time over details when I want to.
