# 10 Day Writing Challenge # On Writing

Newbies, Ninies, and Warriors -10 Day Challenge Day 6

I'm participating in the 10 Day Writing Blogger Challenge that was created over at Hunting Down Writing.

I took a couple days off for my regular Snippet Sunday plus a special NaNoWriMo prep post yesterday. Today, instead of my usual Too Yummy Tuesday feature, I'm jumping back into the 10-day challenge and will be doing consecutive posts until the conclusion.

Day 6: Profile 4 writing-related sites you read regularly

I should preface this by saying my list contains sites I SHOULD read more often than I do! 

Ninie Hammon - The newest on my go-to list is fast becoming a favorite. Ninie offers unrelentingly useful advice on everything from 10 Essentials to a Dynamite Story to 3 Basics Will Revive Dead Dialogue.

Warrior Writers -Kristen Lamb's blog features posts like How to Make Sure Your NaNoWriMo Project Isn't a Hot Mess. Need I say more?

A Newbie's Guide to Publishing - Bestselling author J.A. Konrath's blog is the hands-down winner for the straight dope when it comes to publishing independently. Everything from press releases to cover art to whether it's really worth it to promote is covered in a funny, user-friendly format. Konrath is an "open book" on the subject of self-pub, even posting his sales figures.

Live Write Thrive - C.S. Lakin offers plenty of punch with her writing blog, including how to "shoot" a novel through the eyes of a filmmaker and using mind-mapping techniques to help with plotting.
