BLOG BREAK Confidence and Cuisine

Nick Cross presents his fortnightly selection of must-read blogs.


Kelley Donner gets the top spot this week, thanks to her terrifically informative post about the things you need to know before self-publishing a children's book.

The ongoing global pandemic is certainly not filling me with creative inspiration, and Tracy Darnton is feeling the same way. But in her post for An Awfully Big Blog Adventure, Tracy talks about how she's trying her best to store up inspiration for the winter to come.

Am I getting worse? Or, is everyone else getting better? asks Sally Poyton as she struggles with one of our greatest foes: self confidence.

Finally, if you couldn't eat food, would you still be able to write about it? I was impressed by Vanessa Harbour's commitment to fictional cuisine, as described in her blog post.

Nick.

No comments:

We love comments and really appreciate the time it takes to leave one.
Interesting and pithy reactions to a post are brilliant but we also LOVE it when people just say they've read and enjoyed.
We've made it easy to comment by losing the 'are you human?' test, which means we get a lot of spam. Fortunately, Blogger recognises these, so most, if not all, anonymous comments are deleted without reading.
