Thursday’s Three: Blogs, Blogs, and Surprise! Blogs

So, here’s the thing. It’s a new year, a new day, a new feature here at the Hall of Fame: the Thursday’s Three, where you’ll find three sites to check out on a particular topic. Most likely, the topic will be writing-related. But I’m not making any major promises here.

(If I’m being perfectly honest, I’m only adding this feature so that I can read this stuff myself. Because I have this other thing. I bookmark stuff I want to read, and then never actually, um, read it. On the other hand, I hang out here at the Hall of Fame all the time, making a nuisance of myself. Might as well do something constructive while I’m here.)

Problogger’s 13 Tutorials to Help You Grow Your Blog Readership Next Year

Retro Coolness’s Try Using Google Adsense to Help You Monetize Your Blog

Copyblogger’s The Best of Copyblogger 2009

Um, that’s pretty much all there is to Thursday’s Three. I’ve got a feeling it’ll help tremendously if we actually read this stuff.

Writing Snacks For Everyone!

You’re a hungry writer, right? So grab your favorite treat and a cuppa tea and give Writing Snacks a look-see. It’s a new site created by a couple of children’s writers, and it’s packed with tasty writing stuff.

But just because Dana Konop and Melissa Thomas-Dubois write for children doesn’t mean that the information is just for children’s writers. Oh, no, my hungry-for-writing-tips friends. You’ll find delicious treats about grammar, writing craft, and even blogging.

Those blogging tips and such might come from a guest writer. A guest writer you might recognize. Okay, it’s me. I’ve never been very good with subtlety. But I do have a few good thoughts about blogging. So gobble up those tips and tidbits right here.

Yummy stuff, right? (But save room for all the rest at Writing Snacks!)
