Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.

Readers and writers blog

Posted by Charley Parker at 9:30 am

A tip of the hat to Sid Leavitt for his complimentary review of lines and colors on Readers and writers blog. Overseen by Leavitt, Readers and writers blog is devoted to hosting experimental writing and seeking out and highlighting good writing in the blogosphere.

His reviews of other blogs can lead to an interesting cross-section of that sphere, covering a wide variety of topics, but with a common thread of good writing. He is fond of The Dilbert Blog, for example, not because he is an avid fan of the strip (he’s not), but because the blog itself is entertaining and well written, something I probably wouldn’t have discovered without Leavitt’s review.

In addition to the featured writing and reviews of other blogs, there is a slowly growing blogroll of well-written blogs.

    And thank you for your complimentary words about Readersandwritersblog.com, where we’ve already received a comment from Peacay, one of the deans of erudite arts commentary on the Internet, offering his compliments about your site.

    By the way, thanks also for your ‘tip of the hat.’ It made me feel like I was being saluted by the late Jimmy Hatlo.
