What should this blog cover?

What topics do you want to see covered in this blog? I jump to get a post up with each blog topic (we've only had two so far), but so far, we've not had a huge response. In fact, just a few, but, much appreciated.

As members, and guests, what topics would you like to see us cover in this blog? Unless we have something of interest going for most of you, it doesn't make sense. All of your comments matter.

So, please reply to this question with your suggestions.

Queries or Articles?

Finding new outlets??? I know IFWTWA has been great about suggesting new, profitable outlets. I was spoiled with having co-authored two books and being picked up by Time Warner Cable.

However, now that I've relocated, I'm starting from scratch. I've found two local publishers who have agreed to take a couple of articles a month and an occasional feature, but, I want to find more.

Brenda and I have just sent a query (per guidelines) to a national magazine, and playing the waiting game.

My question is do you get better results with queries or with magazines that will look at the actual article? I hope some of our writing members and associate members will comment.
