You do not have to wait until your research is done." Action Item For your action item this week I'd like you to do a brainstorming exercise. Think about your specific niche within genealogy. If you were to write a short eBook that you could publish as a pdf what topic would you choose? ACTION: Try to think of as many possibilities as you can.  Allow yourself to go in a direction that you normally wouldn't consider. Think about your niche in very broad terms and then narrow down and think about it with very specific topics. And then of course write down your ideas! I hope this exercise really gets you thinking about what you do and the various ways you can share your knowledge on the subject. I really strongly believe in brainstorming. I think it can open you up to possibilities and ideas you hadn't considered before. Direct link to this post: http://www.thegenealogyprofessional.com/lynn-palermo/ NEWS Here on the genealogy professional podcast we have been releasing episodes weekly for the last 5 or 6 weeks.  I just want you to know that we are not going to continue at that pace. While we don't have a set schedule yet what you are more likely to find is that we'll 6 episodes in a row and then we'll take a few weeks off. Then we'll do another 6 and take a few weeks off.  That will be a bit easier on us than trying to crank them out every week. We've reached that point now. So our next episode will be in a few weeks on August 21st. On that day we'll hear an amazing interview with NGSQ co-editor Melinde Lutz Byrne.
