This is a good point, many people feel the biz-op market is too crowded.... Some say that the sooner you get OUT of trying to market biz-op materials, the faster you'll find success....

I think the biz-op area is a great place to "get your feet wet," but it's much better to write about your passions! Your hobbies!

If you have a hobby, the chance is there are thousands, or maybe even millions, of people who have the same hobby you do. And they'd love to know more about their hobby!

(If you wanted to be sure, you could check the list of mailing lists in the SRDS -- either buy it or find it in a good library -- to see how big the lists related to your hobby exactly are.... In Australia and I think also in the UK, the equivalent publication is called the "List of Lists"....)

And writing about something you love and know about already is much easier than writing about something you have little interest in.... Plus, your natural enthusiasm will shine through what you write! :)
