How to Write Content for Fall

 

 

When writing blogs, you can stick to business-related text that will give you the right keywords and focus on the right audience. You also can write themes because people are searching for those things. Writing these theme-related blogs will not alter your rankings in search engine optimization, but they could bring you new customers. Some people searching these themes might be your target audience, but you won't know if you stick to business-related blogs. 


For example, if you want to write blogs about autumn themes, you can do that. I would recommend, though, that you connect the fall theme to your business in some way. Otherwise, it might not help you rank or be considered fresh relevant content by Google.

 

Here are some tips for writing content in the fall.

 

  1. Relate to Fall Holidays. If you want people to search for your company, you can try writing blogs that connect a fall holiday to your business. For example, a home improvement company could write a blog about protecting your house from vandalism on Halloween. If you are an author, you could write a blog about books that take place at Halloween.
  2. Cheer for the Team. The fall means football, both college and pros, baseball playoffs, and hockey and basketball starting. You could post on social media your preference for winning. You also could run a contest, such as a discount for a team win. 
  3. Give Recipes. Whatever your business, your potential customers would enjoy getting recipes to try during the fall season. To be picked up from search engines, though, it should relate to what you do. For example, a dentist could do something on good food recipes to help your teeth. If you detail cars, try recipes to eat while you wait for the car.
  4. Be Grateful. Issuing a statement where you are thanking your subscribers, customers or followers is always good to do in the fall. You might want to add a special promotion too.

 

    5. Elections Are Coming. While you might not want to get into a political debate over issues, you might want to incorporate the elections into your writing without debating the issues.  If you are a veteran-owned company, you might want to write a blog about exercising your right to vote and thanking veterans who serve this country.

    6. Serve Veterans on Veterans Day. That brings me to another fall theme, Veterans Day. You could interview a local veteran and post the interview on your blog to show how much you value the people who serve.


Similar themes can be found throughout the year. Are you ready to take advantage of these tips? Contact: Louise Harris of LAST Research and Editing to discover how you can capitalize on fall themes in your writing.

Settings Give You Time and Place

  In addition to my editing , writing and marketing , I also coach writing for fiction and nonfiction . Many people are unsure how to start. I like to start with characters and setting. When you begin a novel, you have to decide on a setting. It is more than a place. Settings also include time of day, seasons and the year a novel takes place. Settings also could be a state of mind. For example, sometimes, novels are set in people's minds where the main character has created a world. Sci-Fi and Fantasy use people's minds as a setting a lot. Inception or Ready Player 1 are two movies that are primarily in people's minds.  All my novels take place in Philadelphia in modern day. The times and seasons fluctuate depending on what the story is. Many are near the Delaware River, which is the above picture. In my latest book, The 1776 Soldier , I have two settings, one set in fall of 1776 and one in fall of 2023. This was my first time using two different settings. It was a ...

How to Write Characters in Your Fiction

    Authors have to figure out their characters first before they begin plotting or creating a setting. Sometimes, the characters and setting come at the same time, such as a lady in Regency England. When authors determine the characters, they are able to fit a setting around them. Here are things to consider when writing characters . Sometimes, authors are unsure how many characters are enough for a story. The answer depends on the type of fiction and author's taste. Fantasy authors often use 10 to 12 main characters to build out a world while romance authors can stick to about four or five. Children's authors use one or two. You need interaction, world-building and suspense, but you also do not want to confuse your reader with two many characters. This confusion often shows up in movies when directors pack a movie with characters and fail to develop them. If you are unsure, let someone outside your genre read it to tell you.  The most believable characters have ...

Add Flaws to Your Characters

  Authors get inspiration for their characters from many locations. The more relatable your characters are, the more likely you will be successful as business owners and writers. For example, the above character was created for a client of mine who needed to talk to entrepreneurs about technology so they could understand it. I created Joe Entrepreneur who asked the author direct questions that were answered in each chapter. In this blog, I delve into some common traits of characters to make them relatable.   1. Transfer What You Feel to Characters -- Some people have asked me what led to me writing my first novel. I answered that I was lonely, and the main character was lonely. As I wrote, she absorbed my loneliness. Then, it was gone from her too. Have you noticed that sometimes our characters take on what we are feeling at the time of writing? Fiction is a great way to release those anxieties and fears we have every day because we can put them into the characters. ...
