Mini Link Feast – Mothers, Daughters, Introverts & Utopias

.

Old habits die hard. Reading blogs is still one of my favourite pastimes. But with no deadlines for writing and author platform links, I have focused more on the deep stuff, the blogs that really make me think. I hope you’ll find these links as interesting as I did.

    Hi Reetta

    I read the 10 things I want my daughter to know blog with some hesitation since she’s about to turn 11! However, it was all good as we’ve pretty much got the points covered πŸ™‚

    The depression blog has me (and I’m sure a lot of others) written all over it. It’s always best to make the most of the good times πŸ™‚

    Cheers!

      Hi Nigel,

      Thanks for visiting. I’m glad to hear you have the daughter things covered. They’re pretty common sense but it was good to see them written down.

      The depression is something many writers struggle with and Anne’s post explains really well why.

    Another bunch of good links! Thanks especially for “Hello Darkness” – I’m not depressed, but I’ve been feeling overwhelmed lately and that blog contained some wonderful tips to deal with it all.

    Reetta, I am always amazed with all your research and effort that you put into your posts and mash-ups. As I’ve said before, I bookmark them. Most I have not read and want to refer back to them at a later time. Thank you so much! πŸ™‚

    Thanks much for the shout-out, Reetta. I’m so glad my post on depression resonated with people. So many of us suffer from it. I must say that knowing the source–and knowing we can control it–helped me a lot.
