writing articles - any requests?

I've been writing a fair few articles recently (as you can see). It's partly because I like writing and find it fairly straightforward (altho I haven't heard about the last one I submitted - so it'll probably get rejected and I'll be left feeling a little less smug). I can also justify it as "marketing".

I'm feeling a little stale tho. So over to you. Feel free to suggestion publications (& topics) that I should pitch to and I'll give it a go.

the seven habits of highly effective blackmailers

I like articles / posts that have "5 key things to remember when drafting emails" or "10 tips of improving meetings". They are often short, pithy and can impart useful knowledge. I just find myself less and less able to write them.

I have a confession to make.

I don't really want to make your life easier.

I want you to think. Hard.

I want you to wonder why the hell you are subjecting yourself to this and yet continue to do so anyway.

Is that so unreasonable?
