I should write more

I'm such a snob. I was reading some fairly obscure stuff on CNNMoney.com today - a series of short interviews with rich/famous people, each with its own byline. Likewise, since I've taken a new job, I've been introduced to several publications - mostly trade and travel magazines - that I didn't know existed. As I'm reading this kind of stuff, I'm thinking "I could write this" but I never really persued freelance assignments like those because it takes a lot of time to market your writing to all those places, and because, well, I think I figured I would rather spend my time writing something "bigger", like the novel which still isn't published. Anyway, I realize now that I might have "bigger"-ed myself out of some good writing gigs.
