The Big List of Writing Blogs

August 14, 2007 – 3:07 pm

Here is a list of writing blogs broken into three sections: blogs for writers (offering tips and resources for writers), writers’ blogs (personal blogs of writers or editors, detailing mostly their own work), and blogs on blogging (specifically about blog writing / management, since blogging encompasses much more than writing). If I’ve missed writing blogs that you’re aware of, or that you run, please leave a comment with the blog’s name and URL, and I’ll continually update this list to reflect any suggestions that I approve.

  4. What a great list and thanks for including my blog. Here’s one for the ‘one to watch’ category. InspiredAuthor.com will be relaunching within the next few weeks. The new platform will include blogs from all the contributing editors (I’m one of them but the site is owned by publisher Suzanne James) on various subjects relating to writing.

  7. Hi, Jennifer,

    My blog, Writer’s Notes, provides resources of various types for writers. It would be great if you’d add it to your list! Can’t wait to check out the other blogs that I don’t recognize!

    Thanks for assembling these links all in one convenient place!

    Regards,
    Jeanne

  12. Thanks for including my blog on your list, Jennifer.

    Your post inspired me to create a list of some of my favorite writers’ blogs and link to this list. There are several on my list that aren’t included here. If you like to add any of them, the list is at http://lillieammann.com/blog/2007/08/24/blogs-by-and-for-writers/

  13. Thanks for including me on the Big List of Blogs! This is a great resource for writers and others!

    By Laura on Aug 25, 2007

    By Georganna Hancock on Aug 25, 2007

  15. Great blog! Here’s mine:

    http://neurilace.blogspot.com - by the winner of a 2003 Cinescape genre novel contest and recently a semi-finalist for the Aeon Award. (Apologies for blowing my own horn!)

    By PKL on Aug 27, 2007

  16. I wouldnt mind being added to your list! If you like my blog of course…

    By chrisblogging.com on Aug 29, 2007

  17. You’re already on there Chris. I had added you after seeing you listed in another post from someone in the list. I put you in the blogs on blogging category. If that doesn’t sound right (if blogging isn’t the focus or I missed something), let me know, and I’ll consider moving it. :)

    By Jennifer Mattern on Aug 29, 2007

  18. Jenn, would you mind looking at my site to see if it warrants inclusion? :) (I put you on my blogroll)

    By Matt on Aug 29, 2007

  19. I just added it to the Writers’ Blogs section Matt. And thanks for the blogroll link!

    By Jennifer Mattern on Aug 29, 2007

  20. Thanks!. And you’re welcome! :)

    By Matt on Aug 29, 2007

  21. Thanks for including me on the list. I really appreciate it:):)

    By Tammi on Aug 30, 2007

  22. Would you consider adding my writer’s blog to your list?
    — Despite that fact that the subject matter (writing Erotic Romance) is adult in nature, the actual How-To content is not.

    By Morgan Hawke on Sep 6, 2007

  23. I did add it Morgan, but with a little note that it may potentially contain adult content (as different people would have different definitions of “adult” content… figured it was best to warn the potentially easily offended).

    By Jennifer Mattern on Sep 6, 2007

  24. Hello, I run a site for writers as well and would love it if I could be added to this great list.

    Thanks and have a great day :)

    By Daria Black on Sep 12, 2007

  25. Nice site Daria. It’s added. :)

    By Jennifer Mattern on Sep 12, 2007

  26. Got another potential for your list, Jennifer, and it’d be great to see our name up there soon. Nice job on your blog, by the way!

  27. Here’s another writing blog (written by yours truly): http://theurbanmuse.blogspot.com/.

    Also, the editor at Writer’s Digest also recently launched a blog that might be of interest: http://www.writersdigest.com/writersperspective/.

    By Susan on Sep 12, 2007

  28. I believe I’ve added all of the recent suggestions to the list now, to whatever I deemed the most appropriate category based on recent posts.

    By Jennifer Mattern on Sep 12, 2007

    By Ron on Nov 29, 2007

  34. Jennifer,

    Would love to have my blog added to this illustrious list!

    Thanks for the consideration, and Happy New Year!

    By Yuwanda Black on Dec 31, 2007

  35. Jennifer,

    Forget my request — you already added my blog (I was looking for it by the URL, not the title name (How to Start a Successful Freelance Career).

    You’re the best :-)

    By Yuwanda Black on Dec 31, 2007

  36. I just started a blog for writers - a place for stories started, but never finished.

    It’s been contributed to by mostly friends right now, but I hope to get more contributions by other writers.

    By Kitt on Jan 8, 2008

  37. My site is called A Writer’s Eye and is updated 4-5 times a week, with articles on writing, book reviews, the occasional market list, and my own experiences in the writing field. I hope you find it good enough to add.

    By Jacob Malewitz on Jan 14, 2008

  38. What a great list and thanks for including my blog. Here’s one for the ‘one to watch’ category. InspiredAuthor.com will be relaunching within the next few weeks.

    Want to add mine? http://bloggingwithoutablog.com

    I am trying to help new bloggers as they enter into blogosphere. I also showcase a new blogger (4 months old or less) each week to get them more attention. No question is a stupid question on my site.

    By Barbara on Feb 27, 2008

  40. This is really super website which gives us complete blog list.

  41. Hello Jennifer,

    I’ve recently discovered your blog and I must congratulate you for all the work and dedication you visibly put into it. I think it is a wonderful resource for writers and even if my blog (Blogsessive.com) addresses to blog owners and publishers I will recommend yours by putting a link in the “Blogs We Love” blogroll section, for all the good information that you constantly provide.

    Thank you!

    By Alex on Apr 1, 2008

  42. Howdy,
