How fun! My blog was nominated for the Very Inspiring Blogger Award. The nomination comes from fellow writer and soon-to-be author Vicki Thompson. Thank you  Vicki. Here’s Vicki’s inspiring website. I found her site during the A to Z Challenge. http://the-view-outside.com

So to complete my end of things, I’ve already told 7 things about myself in yesterday’s post. (scroll down if you’d like to see) Now I’m supposed to nominate other blogs. I’ll have to put some thought on that. Most of the places I go are information spots, not personal blogs  I’ve drawn inspiration from.

Though I generally don’t bookmark them (because my bookmark list is almost unnavigable), I do come across many author blogs and most of them are an inspiration just for the fact they’re clean-looking, visually appealing blogs. Does sharp-looking fall into that Very Inspiring category? I don’t know.

But I can offer three author’s personal  blogs that I think fit the category. One, I always learn things from,  the second for her tireless hospitality in hosting authors, myself included. And the third for helping to promote fellow authors with her book cover blog.

The first I mention here is author R. Ann Siracusa. I learn so many things on her blog, and I LOVE learning things. She writes detail-rich edgy thrillers that get your pulse up.

The next is author Anna Markland’s blog. Generous hospitality and a fabulous knack for history-heavy storytelling there. http://annamarklandromanceauthor.blogspot.com/

The third blog belongs to Shiela Stewart, who, as a multi-published author, not only writes all sorts of romantic fiction, she hosts the Book Cover Lover’s blog that supports others on the same path.   http://bookcoverlovers.blogspot.ca/
