Clock Rewinders (12/08/13)

Clock Rewinders on a Book Binge is the brain child of Amanda @ On a Book Bender and Tara @ 25 Hour Books.  I'm inviting myself to their party (as I sometimes do) because I have so damn much fun reading Amanda's posts that I couldn't help myself.

News from around the blogosphere:

• Felicia has some GREAT tips on how to keep your blog in tip-top shape. I'm going to be linking her post in my Blog Housekeeping posts from now on, but I HIGHLY recommend popping in and taking a look at her suggestions. They're GOOOOOOOD.
• Amanda takes a look at why the easiest advice is often also the hardest. (hint: it's all in your mind) So next time I tell you to "sit down and write," you'll have no excuse not to. Or something like that.
