Do you have a blog along the lines of battling writers block, developing characters, or just simply writing better?

Please post it here, I would like to check it out, thanks.

If there are too many posts I may not be able to reply to them all because I have places to go, things to do. (You know the drill!)

There was a thread in the writing group about this. Perhaps you'll find something interesting in there: www.blogcatalog.com/group/writers-and-writing/discuss/entry/how-many-of-you...

I maintain a blog about writing, and it has the topics you've mentioned. Have a look at www.pearlwriting.blogspot.com.

  I like your blog. A little colorless, but very helpful. I like the article on the adsense. I am thinking of using that. I also like your tagline. "We write so you don't have to"

  Your articles are very wordy and technical, but still helpful for nonfiction writers. I will be sure to refer to your site for my writing on thenearbyfuture.com.

I don't know if it's quite what you're looking for, but I've recently started a webnovel. It's not so much a blog about writing so much as a piece of serialized fiction published entirely on the web. gloria-fidelis.lunaticpress.net

  Wow... you're a great writer! I love your miniseries. Thanks for leaving the link. By the way, how did you come up with the names? They're very creative.

Plot is my game. I help novelists, memoirists, children's and young adult writers and screenwriters develop plot through the dramatic action, character emotional development, and thematic significance. Hope you'll stop by. I'm off to check out you site right now.
Thanks!

I have a poetry blog, part of the concept of Poetry as Therapy, where I also ask other poets for their poems. Most of the poems, however are by me.

My latest post explores a little about the possibilities for short stories on the web, and the behaviour of those who read them. Mostly the content is my original short fiction.

Hi
I have just posted the first part of my Australian fiction novel called Paternity and this will be followed by regular posts of additional instalments. Read it free of charge at www.journeysincreativewriting.blogspot.com! I have many of my original short stories here as well and often comments range to 'how to' matters. Everyone welcome.

I do have a writing blog, although for the month of November I'm not posting every day (due to NaNoWriMo) but typically I post each day with tips, information or experiences from which my readers can benefit.

  Great blog! I found the editing form very useful because I participated in National Novel Writing Month as well. Your editing posts were very comprehensive, something that other writing blogs sometimes skimp on.

Right on, this is my niche. I've got 2 blogs that are dedicated to the aspects of writing. thepromptwriter.com is a site that offers writing ideas for anyone to use. And creativewriting.today.com is all about the different forms of creative writing.

  I loved your blog! My favorite part of it was the page about Wal Mart, taking the reader through minds of average people we see every day, and their struggles. Brilliant and very creative! The Dead Line also caught my attention, as I love stories with a supernatural twist.

Here is an excellent resource that includes a blog that I subscribe to. It is www.writedirections.com. I find them very useful. If you're looking for websites that spotlight fiction writing, I have two of them. Let me know if you'd like the links, and I'll send them to you.

I've been blogging about writing for some years but I just recently (a few months ago) bought my own domain and split it into two parts. My personal blog which includes my writing life and the main site which includes resources and tidbits for writers. It's a bit slow starting because I'm still trying to find my balance between personal blogging and other stuff (everything is about writing to me *wink*) but if you're interested my site is written-whispers.com . I just opened up a forum on there as well but that's really recent so it looks like a ghost town.
