Blogs

         On one of the blogs I follow, Angela Ackerman's The Bookshelf Muse, Angela recently asked commenters to provide some of those blogs they "can't live without."
         Personally, I love The Bookshelf Muse, with its great tips and wonderful emotion and setting thesauruses.
         After receiving lots of great comments about other blogs, Angela posted the responses today.
         I am reprinting them here.  Many of them I already follow and a few I've already linked to on this blog. (Some of Angela's suggestions are geared toward childrens, middle grade and Y.A. and writing. You can sort those out on your own.) 
        I didn't do the links for the Writing and Authors section. Frankly, there are zillions of blogs and sites out there--many of which are not on the list-- and I didn't check these out.  I'm including them, anyway. You can click on The Bookshelf Muse to get those yourself! It's well worth the trip.
