Please don't think that I spend all of my life reading blogs and newsletter - although it may seem that way. The following is a list of blogs that I find useful for a variety of reasons. I've split them in to 2 - web and marketing (work) related and others. Feel free to send me your favourites and I'll get them posted here.

All the blogs highlighted in yellow have been picked up by book publishers and are available from your favourite book sellers, just shows that there can be money in blogging.

All of these links will open in a new window or tab depending on your browser and settings

Life at the end of the road A great "lifestyle" blog written by a former fisherman who moved to the island of Raasay in 1989. His croft has no mains electricity or gas so the decision was made to turn to a more sustainable lifestyle. His blog documents his daily life with his family, his animals and his "day job" as motorman on the ferry. It's well worth the read and it's quite captivating.
