I don't have to blog about writing???

It's interesting that all of my favorite blog posts this go-around are about the business of writing instead of the craft.  Either writers are really sympatico or I just wasn't feeling craft this week.

Training to Be a Career Author -- Writing is More than the Writing by Kristen Lamb

Sacred Cow-Tipping -- Why Writers Blogging About Writing is Bad by Kristen Lamb

What Are the Odds...Really?  Taking a Hard Look at Success by Kristen Lamb

Write Your Query FIRST for a Better Book by Camille Noe Pagan

Btw, I'm not going to stop blogging about writing even if Kristen says I don't have to (thank you, Kristen!) because it forces me to solidify my thoughts on writing.  It helps me to take it more seriously too.  Still, it's nice to know that in order to build a writer platform I don't have to blog about writing.  So many "experts" say that an unpublished writer must blog about writing.  (I wonder how many more times I can say the word writing in a paragraph?)  I feel so vindicated!  See here.
