I’m ushering in May by kicking off a blogathon, where I promise to post something every day this month. I’m calling it A Post a Day in the Month of May.
I’m doing it to celebrate a milestone birthday coming up in a week or so, and the start of spring.
I’ve persuaded 19 other freelance writers to join me. During the course of the month I may write more about each one. For now, here’s a list of who’s joining me in my great birthday blogging adventure:
Janine Adams - Organizing tips galore.
Jane Boursaw - Covers everything about movies including reviews, trailers and industry news.
Diana Burrell - Diana is one half of the team behind the popular The Renegade Writer books and blog, which are both crammed with good stuff for writers.
Jackie Dishner - Writes about biking, but so much more. Her post today on biking and body image is amazing.
Marijke Durning - Writes about the newest in health and safety news, and a bit about life as a freelance writer.
Carolyn Erickson - Carolyn is using the blogathon to recharge her blogging batteries - good girl!
Amy Grisak - A good-looking blog about “seizing the moment,” with lots of posts about gardening, food, family life and more.
Roxanne Hawn - Covers the “true tales, brags and whines about my life with a rescued border collie named Lilly.”
Sandra Hume - A blog about Laura Ingalls Wilder! My 7-year-old son and I just read “Little House in the Big Woods” and I fell in love with it all over again.
Elizabeth Kricfalusi - “Miss Adventure” writes about adventure “in many different shapes and flavors.”
Trish Lawrence - According to Trish, “It’s mostly blather about my writing, gossip, and my opinions on things as opposite as Gossip Girl and James Frey.”
Sue Poremba - Writes for and about writers. Today’s post is about coming up with queries.
Sarah Ludwig Rausch - A mom of four and freelance writer: it’s worth visiting Sarah’s blog just to see the picture of her cute kids.
Meredith Resnick - Actually, Meredith has four blogs but I only picked one to link to for now, on “real world news and real world views” of adoption. Meredith, how can you keep 4 blogs going?
Dawn Weinberger - A fellow Oregonian, writes about life after her husband Carl’s successful liver transplant last year, chronicling “our journey of faith, hope and healing.”
Susan Weiner - “Coverage of investment-related topics by a financial writer-editor who’s also a CFA charterholder.”
Late entries:
Charmian Christie - Christie’s Corner takes a light look at food. Her motto: “Real food. Real life. It ain’t always pretty.”
Jen Miller - Writes about the New Jersey shore in support of her new book, “The Jersey Shore, Atlantic City to Cape May: Great Destinations: A Complete Guide.”
Claudine Jalajas - Writes about the joys and pain of remodeling her house.
Barb Adamski - A Canadian writer who blogs about lacrosse, “its past, its present, and its future.”
Leah Ingram - The Lean Green Family (formerly Suddenly Frugal), all about living frugally and green.
