Ten women. Ten authors. Ten bloggers.Every blogger is a writer, but these women have something else to bring to the table - they show us how they translate the professional writer's medium to the everyday space of a weblog. They give us a glimpse of how daily life can be told in art. A double whammy, but the good kind.Take Jennifer Weiner, for instance. She's written several bestsellers, and her lovely In Her Shoes became a movie, released in 2005, starring Cameron Diaz. One of the other stars, Shirley Maclaine, was nominated for a Golden Globe. But Jennifer blogs about her dog, her little girl, and her husband, in addition to her book tours and interviews. Plus a dash of gossip.These women write about the world, the "real" and the literary one. It's an inspiration and a rich resource.Related Top 10 Sources: Books | Science Fiction | Humor

I had the most amazing breakthrough today. Still writing the Think Sideways course, and was sitting in the little snack area in our local Target brainstorming the whole world-building/pre-planning process for novels (Lesson 7). My two guys were off looking for video games, and I had my carry-along notebook out and was...

September creeps toward August like a frightened lizard, and here in Scottsdale the mercury still rises each day past the 100 mark. I have had about enough of living indoors, of hiding from the hot white heatblast that bakes over this place for months and months. Enough of watching the grackles stand with wings outspread,...

Ship of Fools by Harley Last week I took my first cruise, not counting “Love Boat” and “The Titanic.” Not THE Titanic, but the CBS miniseries starring Catherine Zeta-Jones and Peter Gallagher. The one you didn’t see. I never saw...
