Blogs ...

… I have been reading!

I’ve discovered some new blogs recently. It’s not like I don’t already spend enough time blogging or anything!

But, I wanted to share with you …

Literary Rejections On Display – this site is so funny, and will make you feel better about every rejection you’ve ever had!

I found it via the blog of the lovely Kerry. Hi Kerry!

I’ve also just discovered Justine Picardie’s blog.

On this blog, she’s talking about her new novel ‘Daphne’, which sounds absolutely fascinating. So much so that I’ve just ordered it from Amazon! Will someone please stop me from buying any more books!

And finally, you all know about lovely Caroline Smailes, but you should particularly look at her blog tomorrow as she is hosting a blog discussion with writer Orna Ross. More details on Caroline’s blog.

So, no excuse to do anything other than blog, sorry – get on with some serious writing – for the next few days!

Thanks for the heads up about the literary rejections site. I'm heading for it right now. But don't stop buying books yet -- not til all ours are published! :-)

I love blogging, but with a full time job, as well as writing, as well as my hubby's business stuff, it's an expensive pastime, timewise.

Just had a look at the literary rejections site. Doesn't it just make you feel 100% better!

KAREN said...

I've just ordered Daphne too - it sounds great :o) I'm going to pop over to the Literary Rejections display now...

Lane said...

Thanks for the links Helen. The rejections one is great:-)

You can never ....
ever......
have too many books:-) x

HelenMH said...

Sue - I will never stop buying books!

Annie - I know, I have to ration myself a bit bloggingwise or it would take up all my time - not good.

Karen - I can't wait for my copy of Daphne to arrive. It sounds fascinating

Lane - the rejections site is a real find isn't it?

Travis Erwin said...

Annie Wicking and Loman Austen said...

I'm like you, Helen.
I try not to spend too much time on the net.

When I should be...... WRITING ;-)

Best wishes
