In an effort to connect with more writers, I have signed up for Comment Challenge - 2011. It started yesterday and runs though the end of the month. The goal is to comment on five writer's blogs a day, capping out at 100 posts for the month. It can be any five blogs, new or ones you already followed. I, however, have decided that at least two of my comments a day will be on blogs that are new to me. It's a way for me to connect with more writers, share their accomplishments and setbacks, and hopefully learn a thing or two along the way.
To share my excitement, I want to introduce you to the newly re-vamped blog of an amazing writer friend of mine. Lindsay Currie. We have been critique partners for nearly a year, reading and commenting on every line of every manuscript the other churns out. She has watched me revise, submit, and revise again, offering encouragement and the extra shove I need when I just wanted to pack the whole "writing -thing" up. Go check her blog out, she has some truly inspiring ramblings going on over there!
That sounds great!! I am doing that : ) Where did you hear of this?

What a great way to get to know new writers! I've been so lazy about my blog lately. Maybe I'll have to try this in a few months.
