Guest-blogging this week at NickNick!
One non-theatre/-costuming blog that i read religiously is Faster Than Kudzu, by bestselling author Joshilyn Jackson. I've read all her modern-Southern-gothic books and enjoyed them, but that's not why i read her blog, which is really more about her day-to-day life than anything else. Rather, i read Kudzu so i can laugh until the tears squeeze out the corners of my eyes. She is one highlarious lady! (Or at least, her sense of hyperbolic humor and mine align perfectly.)
In addition to writing her own novels and blogging at Kudzu, Joshilyn also posts occasionally for A Good Blog is Hard to Find, a group blog written by a whole roster of Southern authors. I have to admit, i have always felt a little pang of jealousy, whenever she made a chipper, chirpy post to the effect of, "This week i am guest blogger over at the Southern Authors place!" with a link to some hilarious post for an entirely different forum, and wished that there were some similar outlet for me, somewhere i could go swoop in and make a quick post every now and again on some labricoleuse-related topic, not a-whole-nother blog all for me, just an occasional change of pace, y'know? Different exposure to eyes that wouldn't maybe have found my words otherwise.
Well, the time is nigh and that day is at hand!
This week, i'm the featured blogger for the Nicholas Nickleby production blog, Page to Stage! (If you are a livejournal user, the site-specific feed is nicknickleby.) Today in my first post, i've discussed my place in the world of the play--namely, bonnets galore!
