On Writing

It's been a lovely week for finding posts about writing in the blog world. It all started with a conversation about setting on Patti Abbott's blog http://pattinase.blogspot.com/2009/03/setting.html then Charles Gramlich took it one step further at his blog Razored Zen with the post comfort vs discomfort http://charlesgramlich.blogspot.com/

Next up was a beautiful post by Tom Piccirilli called "The Gift and the Disappointment". This is how we all should feel when we write. http://thecoldspot.blogspot.com/2009/03/gift-disappointment.html

At Poe's Deadly Daughters, Elizabeth Zevlin talks about the voices in our heads. Hey, we aren't really crazy! http://poesdeadlydaughters.blogspot.com/2009/03/voice-in-authors-head.html

And to wrap it up nicely is Alexandra Sokaloff at The Dark Salon with her post "Your First Draft is Always Going to Suck" http://thedarksalon.blogspot.com/2009/03/your-first-draft-is-always-going-to.html While you're visiting The Dark Salon you might want to check out some of the back posts. Reading Alexandra's blog is like sitting in on a creative writing class. Lots of good stuff there.
