Good on Paper

Blog spotlight 

This will, I hope, be a reoccurring post in which I aggressively pimp a favorite blog writer or blog. I love finding new links and new blogs. I hope you will, too. 

Today’s lucky blogger to be spotlighted is Editrix. Website: http://www.editrix.us/ 

I could easily sum it up by saying “Editrix rocks,” but that doesn’t seem to be quite aggressive enough in terms of pimping. The Editrix blog is “for editors, editors at heart, and anyone else who thinks grammar is hot.” Yes, that’s right. Grammar is hot. How can you not love someone who is passionate, sincere, and so devoted to their cause? (In this case, the cause is grammar and other topics related to editing and writing).

Some of my favorite topics at Editrix include: American Idol, love stories (between punctuation marks), and the unique “5 questions” segment that features super cool and sometimes random writers. Plus, Editrix is funny. And she writes better prose than just about anyone else. And she’s lives upstairs and wears great shoes and once provided extra towels for me when my apartment flooded.

It’s would be easy to think that a blog about grammar couldn’t possibly be hot, but in the hands of such a skilled writer, grammar is sexy as hell. Others are talking about her blog, too. Don’t be the last to learn about Editrix and certainly don’t be the only loser without a “Grammar is Hot” coffee mug.

P.S. She’ll most likely tell me about the typos I’ve made here and I will be so very grateful. As usual.
