How to network without being creepy in five simple steps
In the spirit of writers helping writers, I'm reblogging this useful advice from aussieownedandread.com blog
Building a Platform
When I first began thinking about getting published, I heard lots of chatter about the importance of the writers platform. "What's That," you ask? Well . . . Yeah. As a creative person searching for an audience, you kind of need a platform. There are still publishers that deal with the promotional side, the platform …
Boyfriend Privileges
I am not one to blog about relationships, but I really liked this authors post on “Boyfriend Privileges,” which I’m thinking is also the way a person inadvertently falls into the “Friend Zone.” And since I’m fascinated with the way relationships–romantic and otherwise– develop, I’m reblogging this post from The Fickle Heartbeat Blog:

Recently I’ve come upon the issue of men who struggle to get anywhere with women. They just can’t figure out why they are having trouble when they have seemingly done everything right. The frustration builds and usually the excuse “women only like assholes” is flung around. Personally, I don’t think women only like assholes. I do, however have a theory on a common reason men fail with women.

The guy will be yearning for romance while the woman is satisfied with staying friends. Now the question becomes why is it that the girl is satisfied with being just friends?

I #SupportWNDB – The Series: Being A Better Writer Means Being Diverse
I am reblogging this not only because the guest poster is none other than The Chrsita Wojo. But also because I totally agree with her view on this one. Diversity in writing is so important.
There is no other way to learn what its like to be some one who is nothing like us. To get to know a person whom we have nothing in common with, yet find out we can still understand each other.
How Diversity Makes You A Better Writer

Living in Panama for nearly a decade, I’ve learned what it feels like to be isolated from the rest of society. Now I’m more or less at home and speak Spanish well, but when I first moved here and didn’t know the language. People stared at me, a tall blue-eyed blond girl, like I was a Sasquatch. I was a minority in a world of Salsa and juega vivo. I was gringa.
I hid in the house and watched CSI reruns because that was the only show on in English. I remember one time I was listening to the radio while waiting for my husband in the car, and in the midst of reggaeton and obnoxious screaming DJ, a song by The Strokes came on.
