Of all the Blogs I've loved before.....

Ahhh Mandy. My favorite cartoon character these days. Is that way more about me than you wanted to know?

Which brings me to my topic. I was cruising Romance Divas http://romancedivas.com which is my usual way of putting off the inevitable work I need to do on my writing, and came across a topic that interested me. Diva Dayna (http://dayna-hart.blogspot.com) was wondering how to increase the traffic on her blog. I got to thinking. What sends me to a blog every day? I like Paula Grave's blog (http://paulagraves.com because she link me to other authors and gives out great info. I like Crystal Jordan's blog (http://crystaljordan.blogspot.com) because she's hilarious and makes me laugh every time. Plus I love reading about her book ideas and how she gets them. I check out Shelli Steven's blog (http://shellistevens.blogspot.com) because her life is interesting and she has a positive attitude. She funny, sensitive and pulls me in. So, to me, her writing is probably like that. I love Tawny Taylor's writing so I visit her blog. Loribelle Hunt is another who blogs about her process and that's what I go there for. Oh and the softball updates. Every blog I visit has it's own flavor, it's own style. I have fifteen that I check out regularly. I get disappointed if there's no update. It's a window into someone's personality and lifestyle. I've gotten to know some authors strictly through blogging. It started with Shelli. She's such a treasure. I visited her blog and decided I loved it enough to get one of my own.

Oh, and I love it when a blogger gives me something to comment on. Give an opinion (my favorite.), answer a question, include the reader in the blog. So, what keeps you going back? What has you clicking a blog address in your "Favorites" column? Can't wait to see the answers.
