Rockin' Girl Bloggers

Susan Higginbotham very kindly named me as one of her Rockin' Girl Bloggers, which I gather means I'm to nominate five more. See Susan's post for the pretty pink button thingy that goes with the nomination; I can't figure out the code.

I'm very late to the party on this meme, owing to pressure of work, so most people have already been tagged. As it's a girls-only thing, I'm not allowed to recommend Rick, Martin Rundqvist of Aardvarchaeology or Scott Oden.

So here are some girls' blogs that are well worth reading and that don't already seem to have been nominated (as far as I know):

• Constance - writer of poetry, keeper of Corgis, and creator of fearsome gnomes


• Anne Gilbert - newcomer to the blogosphere and writer of historical science fiction. Welcome, Anne!


• Elizabeth Chadwick - posts on the medieval history background to her novels and occasional re-enactment pics


• Maxine Clarke of Petrona - publishing news and crime fiction (currently taking a break)


• Lucy Ann White - book reviews, gardening and South Africa
