Top Ten of 2007

by JM

writing-pad.jpgBut everybody is doing it…

Yes, even I am doing a list of the top ten posts on Fiction Scribe in 2007. These posts are not the most viewed, the most dugg/netscaped, the most anything other than the most memorable to me.

I have put up a lot of posts this year, so there are probably a lot of posts people like that I’m not going to mention. If you have a favourite, feel free to mention it in the comments. Also feel free to link to your top ten post lists for your site.

Fiction Scribe Top Ten of 2007

(Listed in no particular order.)

1. Eight Ways to Kill Your Characters - This is definitely one of my favourite posts because it was one of the most fun!
2. Sandi Kahn Shelton Interview - Sandi is a lovely lady and was a pleasure to work with. She’s a great writer and I’ll always remember her book as my introduction to women’s fiction.
3. Pet Peeve #44 - Anti-”said” Writers
4. Book Burning - I am still outraged that this happened. Thankfully, my sweet, sweet husband bought me a new copy.
5. FanFiction
6. Creative Spaces - This is actually the whole category. I love seeing what other people’s writing spaces are like.
7. Pet Peeve #16 Discussion - There is a great discussion in the comments section about making money, traditional publishing, and more.
8. Making An Honest Blogger’s Dollar - This led to the above post.
9. Take Your Prozac - An important post about writers and depression.
10. Clippy Knows All - Just hilarious.

Do you agree? Disagree? Do you have a favourite post I missed? Let me know. :)

    Wow, Jaime, I am so flattered to be listed among your Top Ten of 2007. THANK you! And congratulations on working with Dorothy Thompson of the Pump Up fame. She’s so great, and I can’t think of a better partner for her business than you.
    Great things are going to happen in 2008, I can just tell already.
    Happy New Year!
