This genre is of course quite the jungle, with more blogs than anyone can reasonably attempt to evaluate. But take it from me: the one you want to read is Paddy K’s Swedish Extravaganza. Another really good blogger who just needs to learn to illustrate and market his writing.

    You are far too kind – I will shamelessly plug your blog in the future, I promise! And tips about illustrating and marketing my writing…please tell! If I dress up as a leprechaun and show my ass, do you think that will help..?

    Illustrating is easy: just use Google’s image search for whatever an entry is about.

    Marketing takes a little more work. Here’s the three most effective methods I know of.

    * Comment intelligently on high-traffic blogs and include pertinent links to your own writing.

    * Host popular blog carnivals and ask high-traffic bloggers to link to your carnival. I believe the one closest to your interests would be the Skeptics’ Circle.

    * Submit blog entries to popular blog carnivals.

    As for showing yer arse, I haven’t tried that, but I will soon post a pic of my new undies.
