Blogs of Note

There are some fascinating writing related blogs out there and I wanted to share four that caught my attention this month:

On Scriptwriting:

The Script Lab is a wealth of information on all things screenplay-ish. Highly recommended. I keep up with this prolific site via their Twitter feeds: @TheScriptLab

I'm a huge fan of BBC programs, from Doctor Who to Being Human. I'm an even bigger fan now that I discovered they post sample scripts from various shows on their Writers Room page. They also do calls for submissions, if you're from the UK.

On Writing:

Writer Beware: Blogs is a handy resource shedding light  "…. into the dark corners of the shadow-world of literary scams, schemes, and pitfalls. We also provide industry news, writing advice, and a special focus on the weird and wacky things that happen at the fringes of the publishing world." This week Victoria Strauss follows up on the Writers House hoax email sent to an aspiring young adult author. Haven't heard about it? Check out Strauss's post HERE.

Inkygirl is the witty and informative blog of Canadian author/illustrator Debbie Ridpath Ohi. Known for sharing her knowledge of all things Twitter, her hilarious publishing industry comics and exhaustive lists of industry professionals – Inkygirl should be a regular stop on your blog surfing adventures.
