Follow Friday: Inkygirl

Today’s “Follow Friday”  blog to follow is Inkygirl: Daily Diversions for Writers. Inkygirl is Debbie Ridpath Ohi, and she is a writer and illustrator. She draws cartoons that make me laugh, because they’re mostly about writers who procrastinate or who are totally clueless or who hugely overestimate their own talent. Not that I relate to that or anything.

One of my favorite things on Inkygirl are the Golden Marmot awards. These are a collection of random tweets, usually related to writing, that are funny/brilliant/bizarre. They make me laugh.

Inkygirl also has interviews with authors and agents. This is helpful for writers, but it also can just be fun to know what’s coming down the pike at your local bookstore.

Speaking of local bookstores, if you have one, go there. Ditto for local coffeeshops, local restaurants, local farmers’ markets… you get the idea.

Follow the Inkygirl blog for fun cartoons and great articles, and/or follow her on Twitter at @inkyelbows. And then go get a cup of joe at your local coffee shop. See you there!
