This year, I'm listing my favorite blogs. Some of them are already posed to the right of the screen, but this time I'll expound a little bit about why I've chosen it.
Sarah Farish - This is unabashed pride because SE is my oldest niece, a high school English teacher, a funny and smart young lady with a keen eye and sensitive heart.
Debra Darvick - Debra is the oldest daughter of a family friend who passed away in the spring of this year. After reading her mom's obituary in the local paper, I contacted Debra and we connected/reconnected sharing stories about her mom and what it's like to have a parent who loves you because they have to, not necessarily because they want to - and there's nothing personal about it at all. When my father died 14 years ago, I learned more about grief than I thought I needed to learn and most of it was wrapped up in my dad's inability to be a good dad. Debra's journey through her grief is eloquent and she writes lovingly, longingly and realistically about her mother. Until now, I didn't really know Debra, but knew her mother as a library patron. I always felt some kind of connection to her mom.
Stacy Horn - One of my favorites books from last year was Imperfect Harmony: Finding Happiness Singing with Others. I loved this book! When I "googled" the author, I found this wonderful blog, filled with all kinds of NYC delights.
Citizen Reader - She doesn't post often enough, but I enjoy it when she does. Lots of non-fiction.
Savvy Working Gal - Lots of non-fiction and common sense. One of my favorites.
Janice MacLeod - The author wrote a great book Paris Letters.
