"King Max" by Jon McConnell...my talented brother!

My brother, who is an awesome artist working in the gaming industry, started a blog a few months ago.  He’s been pretty good about posting new art every few days.  He’s really been working hard on new techniques, just getting pieces finished and out there for comment.  I love his take on Max’s crowning in “Where the Wild Things Are.”  Check him out!

My lovely friend Mona, from all the way back in high school, who is also my ass-kicking partner in all things related to writing, just started a new travel/life blog, which includes fantastic pics from all over the world.  I love all her cemetery pics.  I can’t wait to see what else she digs up from her photo archives.  This girl has been everywhere.

Also, I discovered this writer’s blog through an interview posted on NaNoWriMo’s site.  I don’t know her personally, but she’s hysterically funny and incredibly inspiring (she’s going to hit her outrageous goal of 1 million words this year — I am in awe).  Plus, she’s got her first book out right now.  She writes under the name Lauren Gallagher.
