Writing blogs has become part of the writers platform. Blogging is encouraged by publishers and the writer benefits. Many authors and article writers share information, hyperlinks to websites and connections with other bloggers.

Online magazines that are geared up for the writer are a valuable research tool. They have hyperlinks and guest writers featured on a regular basis. They send out newletters with author information and topic suggestions.

If you are unsure of what to look for, just type in the keywords to the google, yahoo, bing or other search engine browsers . For example, type in writer or author blogs and this will bring you a listing of blogs and blog directories for authors and writers.

Thanks Glynis for this easy to use guide. I still have had problems trying to use these blogs and twitters. I find I can sometimes get too involved with reading other work so much that I run out of time for my own. So I have to delegate time with the old alarm clock method.

Kind Regards
