Finally, I’ve worked my way through each of Top 10 Blog Posts for Writers (The Best From The Best in 2007!). And it’s ended on a high note for me.
Somehow, I’d lost track of Tom Chandler who writes The Copywriter Underground. His post, How to Negotiate Copywriting Fees Without Turning Into an Asshole: A Nine Step Short Course, is excellent.

There are some great blogs on the list of finalists… some I know, others I don’t and I’ll have fun exploring the blogs that are new to me.
