Yep, got a bad case. Not necessarily of my own blog. I like blogging, I find I blog about 5 days a week but it really doesn’t take long to do it. It’s fun, and a way for me to write and share w/ my friends, mostly my writer friends.

Nope, I’m talking about blog cruising. Just recently I’ve started doing it A LOT.

I’m all over the damn place. Now, the blogs I’m cruising are mostly writer-types. Favorite authors (’oh, she’s got one too??? Yea!’ is my normal reaction), new authors, author/friends, aspiring authors, aspiring author friends, romance group blogs — the list goes on and on.

I read a lot of great stuff on them. Funny bits, pics of hot dudes, advice, great discussions, things that make me think…and sometimes struggles, heartbreak, frustration. All things I can relate to at one point or another.

Anybody else out there blog cruisers? Care to share any favorites? I have a lot of them I read (and I need to create more links to them on my page) but a particular favorite right now is Jill Shalvis (I have her link in the list) - she is hilarious. She can take a family situation and make it sooo funny. And she writes a pretty good book too.

So share your favorite blogs! I would love to hear about them.

   I definitely qualify for the blog addiction category (notice I’m the first one making the rounds to post… )

   I’m so jealous of blogs that are witty and interesting with anecdotes and photos - mine feels more like a journal.

   I just found Jill Shalvis - her short-short Blaze Hush hotel online-read on the eHQ site is awesome. You should check it out. I love Blaze and all 6 stories were good, but Jill impressed me with her depth of emotion in SUCH a short word count. I was breathless for the characters’ first kiss, and they’d just been introduced in, like, one page.

   I read her online story - it was great. Read her Blaze “Room Service,” which is a Hush hotel one too. Highly recommend it. I also just finished her ST “My Sexiest Mistake.” Loved it. And her blog is so funny…

   Oh yeah! I have to balance my cruising as a reward after writing or I’d never get any writing done LOL.

   Are you talking to me? The girl who knows which friends update daily and who’s on vacation where? No? Then…I never blogsurf. I’m always working.

   Blog cruiser. Hmmm. That sounds so normal. So sane. I’ve always considered myself more of a blog stalker, but I think I may adopt your term instead. Thanks.

   Sincerely,
   Fellow Blog Cruiser

   p.s. I loved Room Service too.
