Patchwork Post: Blog Subscriptions, Feeds and Bests

Usually, I save my link-heavy posts for Cognitive Connections, which is designed to highlight useful resources and must-read stories. The links in this post are all about blogs, writing and reaching you.

With the encouragement of a fellow blogger (thanks, Susan!) I finally hooked up my blog so that you can get new posts delivered directly to your favorite reader or your inbox. Look in the upper right hand corner: in red text you will see two options. You can subscribe to my feed or subscribe via e-mail through one of the two links at the top or in this post.

Best Blogs for Writers

You have the opportunity to vote for your favorite writing-centric blogs. Two contests are now open: Editor Unleashed 25 Best Writing Blogs and  4th Annual Top 10 Blogs for Writers Contest. (Votes are made in the comments sections.) I’ve already made my nominations – it’s your turn. While I would love to be your favorite, I encourage you to vote even if another blog holds your #1 spot.

If you would like to expand the list of word-focused blogs your read, check out the Urban Muse 15 Must-Read Blogs for Writers. Full disclosure: I’m included on that list, as are some of my favorite bloggers, some of whom you’ve seen in my Cognitive Connection posts.

Subscribe, Vote and Share

Now that I’ve asked you to subscribe and vote, I’d love for you to share. What makes a blog a great destination for a writer? Please speak up in the comments. The floor is yours!
