Look at Me, Putting on Airs!

Frank Sennett of The Spokesman Review starts up a new column called "Blogspotter" by taking a look at author blogs, and he got me to tell his readers that "the best author blogs turn visitors on to books by other folks as well." Or, as the money quote puts it:

""The glimpses into other writers' personal lives are fun, but the thing I like most about my favorite authors' blogs is their willingness to celebrate OTHER authors that they admire... It's not just about promoting themselves, but acknowledging that we're all enthusiastic readers, and we're all looking for the next awesome book to read."
