Top 10 Storyfix Posts of 2010

It's been a good year, ending with a great month and an even greater week. 

As you may be aware by now, this site was selected to be among the Top 10 Writing blogs, as judged by readers and four of the top writing bloggers in the business.  In fact it was awarded the #1 spot on that list.

Huge thank yous to everyone who has supported this site.

This has brought many new readers to Storyfix — welcome, by the way, hope you'll stick around – some of whom may be wondering… how did this happen?  What's here that's worth my time?

The following list should help.  

If you've been here you'll remember them, and I encourage you to reread them, as they tend to dwell on the soul and essence of the storytelling craft.  There are plenty of solid nuts-and-bolts posts in the 2010 archives also, along with several series and some great guest blogs.  And, a few jokes just to break things up.

And of course, there is 2009's 10 Best Posts list, available HERE if you're interested.

A final note before the 2010 list…

Writers Digest magazine (somewhere in the same building with the folks who are publishing my new book come February) is taking nominations for their annual 101 Best Writing Websites list.  If you'd like to help, here's what you do:

Send an email to writersdigest@fwmedia.com… put "Best Websites" in the Subject line… then in the body of the email state your nomination (www.storyfix.com) and the supporting rationale.

Your continued support is very much appreciated.
