From Rags

One of the first blogs I started reading was NYC Bouncer. After digesting the first post I knew it. This guy is headed toward a book deal. Yeah, he's that kinda good. I've been bad about keeping up with his writings but it came as no surprise to me when today I discovered that he has a book deal. Burn it up!

But who will be next to exit blogland for something more visible? Most people I know throw out bits and pieces of their day-to-day, myself included, its definitely not a concerted effort rather a mechanism for entertainment or just keeping in touch with a dispersed set of friends. I enjoy that genre of blog, it lets me keep in touch with people in the wee late hours, from my comfy chair, in my boxers. But there are some that have a theme, a passionate direction; here are two that are destined for higher ground.

Sangroncito
Sangroncito is my pick for book deal. This one is a no brainer. Whether he is off on a new steamy jaunt, Latin lover in hand or carefully excavating the roots of his family tree, his writing style is sexy, fun and always leaves you feeling satisfied.

Living Above Ground
Living Above Ground is my pick for getting picked up as a columnist. No day is complete without her beautiful landscape of inquisitive, introspective imagery and commentary on the human condition.


And for this week's new and interesting link ups.
