ITT, we post blogs that we write or follow
 
I couldn't find a similar thread via search, so here goes.

Do you have a blog? Do you care to share it? If you blog anonymously and don't feel like outing yourself, there are ways around that (ask a friend to post it!!).

Or, are there blogs that you follow that you recommend? Share here!!

Some blogs I follow:

- http://nolongerquivering.com/ - A blog about a woman who is rallying against the patriarchal Quiverful movement she and her family were following, that stifled her and scared her, and that almost let to her daughter's suicide. It's very interesting and has guest bloggers. I don't know why it fascinates me, but it does!

- http://thepioneerwoman.com/ - A blog written about the transition of a woman's life from independent, polished lifestyle to becoming the wife and mother living on and managing a ranch out in the middle of the country. Her writing style is great, and if you had an afternoon, should read the story of how she met her husband. (Her name is Ree, no relation to me!!)

- crankyactress.com - I don't know her, but she writes hilarious accounts of her experiences as a NYC actress.

I've put mine out there,but I'll do it again: Walking On Water: My trials and tribulations as I attempt to become a paid actress. Not a ton on it so far, but it's getting there.

Thanks for sharing this. It is an interesting read.

I love Jennifer Lancaster's Blog (she has written a few autobiographies about her life post the dot com crash and they are hysterical!). When I've had a rough time at work or need just a little pick me up, I go to her blog for a good laugh: http://www.jennsylvania.com/

Ditto on jennsylvania.com.

I'm probably going to regret this, but I'll post it anyway. This is mine.

Not sure if I would call it a blog since it's only quick witticisms and such, but I follow The American Gentleman:

http://americangentleman.tumblr.com/

My favorite: Lesson No. 37 - There is a fine line between arrogance and confidence. Walk the line. It's called swagger.

Although I liked it better before he started answering anonymous questions...

From one Gentleman to another, this is an awesome blog.

I too follow the Pioneer Woman. I make one of her meals at least once a week.

I also follow www.eatliverun.com- it's written by a young woman named Jenna, who in the past year and half has transitioned from living at home and constantly running and dieting to living on her own in California and eating her heart out. I really connect with her for some reason.

Also- www.alllaqueredup.com because nail polish is an indulgence that a college student can (mostly) afford.
