Writing Blogs, Articles and Links

Writing Blogs

Writers' blogs have come a long way.  I really enjoy several blogs out there and wanted to share a few of them with you.  If you have a writing blog you particularly enjoy, I'd love to hear from you.  Please, don't hesitate to contact me so I can add it to my list.

 

    • Nathan Bransford - Currently my favorite.  A former agent, now author, he really hones in on the business of writing from both points of view.  A must-read!
    • The Ruby-Slippered Sisterhood - Love these guys.  2009 Golden Heart Finalists who have a hopping blog for writers.  Some gems of articles all the way through.
    • Bookends, LLC Blog - Blog of agent, Jessica Faust.  Opportunities abound, as does information.
    • Query Shark - Written by an anonymous agent, there's a lot of good advice here on writing query letters.
    • Pimp My Novel - A great blog for learning how the publishing industry works.
    • Writers Beware - A publishing industry watchdog group sponsored by the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America.  Worth the read.
    • Rachelle Gardner, Literary agent - She answers a lot of questions and provides writing advice.
    • CopyBlogger - A lot of help to improve your writing
    • J.A. Konrath (A Newbie's Guide to Publishing) - He's definitely shaking tings up in publishing.  Interesting reading.
    • Murder She Writes - A great blog with thriller writers and a romantic suspense bent.
    • Smart Bitches, Trashy Books - A snarky look at the world.  Can really crack me up.
    • Dear Author - A blog by readers for readers
    • Janet Reid, Literary Agent - Lots of good insights
    • Evil Editor - Irreverent and it makes me laugh.
    • Pub Rants (Kristin Nelson, Agent) - A "very nice agent indulges in polite rants about the industry."  Fun and informative.
    • Miss Snark - This blog is no longer active, but there are some definite gems here!


Links

This is a catch all link set for some of my favorite places to go on the web for information, fun and writing references.  There are research links, review links, links to articles by other authors and a few miscellaneous others. 

I'm always on the lookout for fun websites to visit, especially those that help me with research.  If you have a web site you particularly enjoy related to writing, I'd love to hear from you.  Please, don't hesitate to contact me so I can add more to this list.

 

    • RT Book Reviews - Reviews of romance, mystery, and much more.  An industry institution.
    • All About Romance - Lots of reviews.  One of the premier online review sites.
    • Coffee Time Romance - One stop shopping for readers and writers
    • Popular Baby Names (SSA) - My favorite character naming site.  I can view the most popular names for a particular year of birth any time after 1879.  Top 20, 50 or 100 or more.  Just awesome!
    • Chatzy - A fun and free chat room site (or you can pay a modest fee to have a permanent room).  I use it to do 'writing sprints' with other writers.
    • NanoWriMo - November is National Novel Writing Month.  This site tracks how much you write...with the goal of 50,000 words...and much more.  A great inspiration for many.
    • Lisa Gardner's Writers' Toolbox - Some great articles here. 


Articles

This is a place for articles about me and that I wrote.  There are wonderful sites out there with a lot of articles.  I've included those under the links page.  If you see an article I should add here, I'd love to hear from you.  Please, don't hesitate to contact me so I can add more to this list.
