Blogs I Follow

---

A younger woman writes this blog, but her posts on serenity and simplicity appeal to me. She includes simple recipes, flower arrangements, fashion, and gorgeous photos. (Yes, I am a photo junkie.)

Written by Ashton Applewhite, an anti-ageism activist, and writer. She’s funny, smart, and bold. I’m also a fan of  “Yo! Is this Ageist?” in which she names and shames companies and institutions that make ageist comments. 

Written by two retired lawyers, this blog sheds light on a new understanding of women in the third part of their lives and provides positive, practical ways women can channel their time and energy in their 60s, 70s. 80s, and beyond. The photos are fabulous!

Marieclaire.com makes no bones about their demographic: young, slender women with money to spend. Many of the posts are wasted on me, but some of them—on makeup, fitness, fashion—are fun and often helpful.

Fashion, beauty, art, books. Everything from why your wardrobe needs a pair of rhinestone heels to coverage of a new show at the MMoA. And stunning photos!

Killzoneblog.com focuses on writers of mystery and suspense. Posts on the publishing business, marketing, and the craft of writing appear daily, each written by one of a staff of eleven published authors.
