My latest DeHaan Services article, "Looking for an Orthodox Christmas in Toronto?", explains why Orthodox Christians celebrate Christmas later than others. It also lists several Orthodox churches in Toronto for those who want to attend a service.
As always, my Xanga blog ("Orthodox Christmas Delayed by Mis-Matched Calendars") also publicizes my article.

One Seasonal Writing Tip
This seasonal writing tip simply notes that the inspiration for the "Orthodox Christmas" article came from two sources. You might not have the exact same situation, but you can adapt.
First, I happened to hear a reminder about Orthodox Christmas on a newscast.
Second, and more important, I have been practicing my writing tip, "Always ask yourself whether you've just been given an article topic...about everything".
I had recently written about Diwali, Christmas carolling, Hanukkah, and Kwanzaa. Why neglect this religious group?
Always be on the lookout for inspiration; just like you should keep an eagle eye out for Christmas clearance sales. After all, LED Christmas lights should be bargain-priced in January
