www.inkthinkerblog.com — At Diane’s suggestion, I checked out Google Reader. Katharine greased the wheels with her suggestion of Bloglines. So far, so good. I love Google, so I decided to go in that direction. With the Google Toolbar already, well, I like to be consistent.
At any rate, I added all of the blogs I mean to read all the time, and the total is, get this, 52. Can you believe I want to read 52 blogs regularly? And I haven’t even gone through all of the recommended blogs in my sidebar–this is just the ones I’d bookmarked with the intention of going back to them at some point. but hadn’t necessarily added to the list over there >>>>>>>. So…now I’m no longer hoarding magazines, but I’m hoarding blog links. Awesome. Well, at least they take up less space, right?
And speaking of blogs, head over to this post for a list of 11 Heaven-Sent Blogs for Writers from back in September, by guest writer Sarah E. White. And once you’re done with that, be sure to nominate your favorite blog for writers over at Michael Stelzner’s blog.

So, you gonna share that list with us, girl? :))
I was afraid someone would ask that! I’m going to try to figure out if there’s a way I can export the list to my sidebar somehow so I don’t have to do it manually. (Kristen = lazy)
Nice work. I’ve been looking around for blogs to read, things to learn etc. I came across your site at thegoldenpencil.com where you left a comment regarding ‘Freelance Writers’ Manifesto’ ~ funny how life is a series of ‘links’, huh.
Anywho, I checked out almost every link that you have and ended up joining absolutewrite.com ~ my very first writers’ forum.
So … I’ll keep reading ya with the hopes of learning some more.
My new blog is at http://www.zitakatalin.wordpress.com – check it out sometime if you got a few minutes.
Oh and about hoarding blog links instead of magazines: I can totally relate! :)
Take care,
Zita
Thanks for visiting and commenting, Zita. Your finding ::inkthinker:: speaks to the value of active reading of and participation in blogs as a form of self-promotion and networking. So glad you joined AW! It’s fantastic. You should also check out Anne Wayman’s http://www.aboutfreelancewriting.com forum, which I positively adore. Come back soon!
