In-between my usual posts, I thought I should update you on what I’ve been up to. Well, I’ve been checking out blogs. And let me tell you, some are just a delight. So I wanted to share just a few cool links with you. The owners don’t know I’m doing this, and they don’t know me. That’s because this isn’t about me. (It’s Sunday. It’s enough if Mon-Sat are about me :-)). If you have some time to waste, why not give them a try?
Tricia Drammeh
This website held my interest for an entire afternoon. The author writes well, which is what you hope for from an author. She also has a section offering book reviews and author interviews.
Evil Editor
Hugely popular website, not just among writers. Evil Editor and his minions provide free feedback on query letters — in the most hilarious way. He also offers other fun features like Guess the Plot on the basis of the title alone and other gems. Has to be read to be fully appreciated, but be warned. Highly addictive.
Medium
A new concept, to me at least. A website dedicated to writing of all kinds. Extremely stylish. Just browsing made me feel all artsy.
Mental Floss
Lists, whacky facts, a bit of geek and genuinely fun facts. I could spend days on this website. And have.
Buzzfeed
Speaking of lists, this site has them all. Well, most of them. If you’re truly bored, this will cure you.
Textastrophe
This guy picks random ads or numbers from the Internet and starts random conversations by text message, which he then publishes here. Truly hilarious and just a little bit weird.
Honest Slogans
The owner of this website mixes graphics from the brands we know with slogans that convey how we really feel about that brand. Lots to smile about here.
lolmythesis
This blog was started in December 2013 by Angie, a senior at Harvard College studying. College theses get the one-liner treatment with hilarious results.
Once you’ve had a chance to visit these sites, I’m sure you’ll agree. Cool links indeed.
