As mentioned earlier this week, most of my news about blog carnivals is going to be featured over at my new blog - Diary of a Smart Chick. What I’m doing over there is commenting on all of my various work around the web which is something that might be of interest to other writers who also write on a diverse range of different topics.
Real Words is returning to be just a blog about writing and the process of writing and what it’s like to live a writer’s life. But part of living a writer’s life is indeed - at least for me - submitting posts about writing to blog carnivals as a means of networking and sharing work with other writers. So those writing posts that come from this blog that end up on blog carnivals will indeed get mentioned here in the hopes that other writers will find those links interesting.
There were two posts of mine that were from this blog that were lucky enough to be included at blog carnivals this week. My thoughts on valuing what we write well were included in the Mad Editor’s Round-Up alongside other writing tips on things like writer’s block, writing from the heart, perfectionism and finding good ideas. My links to hundreds of resources for writers was part of the Writing Success blog carnival with loads of other great posts on writing.
It is my hope that writers who read my blog will be interested in the posts about writing that are at many different blogs - both new and established. I think it is through reading other people’s thoughts on writing that we clarify our own thoughts on our chosen work. What do you think?
