And I know that those blogs are probably starved for attention.
So let's trade links and get the word out there. Please include ratings for your blog in your post.
Here's my blog!
http://nookreclaimed.wordpress.com
It's mostly for posting writing and my thoughts about my writing. The kind of blog I'd like to read: a little bit of writing mixed with a little bit of process. I'll talk about how I got to different thoughts and maybe my thoughts can help you!
I'd love it if you'd subscribed (if you have Wordpress) or subscribed to get the posts sent to your e-mail whenever it updates.
And I would ESPECIALLY love it if you'd start conversations with me in the topics if you have anything to say about what I post. I'm looking for some interaaaaction. AND some blogs to read for myself. SO POST YOUR LINKS! 8D

Here's my blog. It was just started a couple of days ago, so there's only one post right now, but it outlines what I think will be the most important part of my blog: my project. Here's most of the post:
Before I moved to Chicago, I had no experience with hearing my work read aloud, unless it was excerpts of my English paper the teacher wanted to share with my British Literature class Sophomore year. Right from the start at Columbia, however, there was this idea of writing not just as words on a page, but as words to be spoken, passed through the vocal chords. That is, after all, the way stories were told long before they were written and paragraphed and comma’ed.
This is something I want to experiment with.
What if we could make an online community, right here, right now, of sharing stories orally with one another?
It can’t be too difficult.
If you have any kind of a new-ish computer, you have a built in web-cam, and it takes hardly longer than a snap to set up a YouTube account. Even better, YouTube has the option of recording a video directly from your webcam to the website to upload. It’s incredibly easy.
Now, you might be asking why it’s important or practical to tell stories orally. First, look at the phrase: TELL me a story. When we were young, we didn’t ask our mothers to WRITE us a story so we could put ourselves to sleep by moving our eyes over words. We wanted to hear the story woven from the fabric of her voice. Second, it’s the way most stories are told. You tell stories to your friends and family every day, about what happened to you at work or on the train, or something you wished had happened to you, but really didn’t. By this logic, it should come naturally, so it couldn’t hurt to try.
