Look in any magazine,
vintage or modern, and you'll find a common theme running throughout, being
anniversaries and seasonal articles and snippets. The need for such contributions by millions of
publications all over the world is so intense that many writers earn their
entire income writing about things that happened one hundred or so years ago,
people (living and dead) who are celebrating an important milestone (birthdays,
deaths, marriages, etc.), or relating to regular events like Christmas, Bonfire
Night, Easter, and so on.
All you have to do is
find relevant information from the public domain which can be converted to
modern day terminology which you then use as the basis for paid letters to the
editor, alongside articles, captioned photographs, recipes and poems attracting
valuable gifts.
Or you could produce a range
of birthday cards or scrolls containing information to interest people born in
a particular year or sharing the same star sign. Add lucky dates and numbers, main events at
the time the individual was born, famous and infamous people sharing the same
birthday or star sign, and so on. Then
sell your products on eBay, Amazon, Etsy and numerous other sites.
