My quandary (unlike yesterday's quandary, or the particularly uncomfortable one I had the day before last) is that most of the blogs I've read so far today have left me yawning and rubbing my eyes between trips around the room to shake off the screaming abb-dabs.
Honestly, I've resorted to reading two cereal packets and a political pamphlet to liven up my day. It's taking a tremendous amount of will power to resist grabbing my Kindle and leaping onto a lawn chair.
BUT I intend to present to you a truly snoggable blog to save my half atrophied brain so here it is, and it's a beauty.
I am giving the incomparable Maggie Stiefvater a hearty snog - for renewing my faith in bloggers and many more reasons besides - and for her fabbity fab blog post,
Dammit, Skywalker, Look Inside Yourself from way, way back in October 2009.
It's for every writer who needs to find a reason to write on.
And that is why I'm snogging her today.
It is a blog classic.
One to read in tough and gloomy times, or every other week.
Wotz more, I am hugely happy to tell you about Rose Green and her blog
Der Buchwald Rose is a fellow
Blueboarder. Rose is quite the artist as well as a writer and her recent posts on 'Why you should read when you're a writer' and 'On aiming for the top and following your gut' are well worth stopping by to read.
And, while I was on Rose's site, I found a bonus. A gem. A link to
Brandon Sanderson's
Write About Dragons which is amazing!It's the complete video footage of
Brandon Sanderson’s 2012 creative writing class at Brigham Young University. Wow!
So now I've successfully avoided the screaming abb-dabs and left you with my snog recommendations, I can skip off to my lawn chair.
Have a great day :D
