This is kind of neat.
Babble.com, where I am one of the featured, front page bloggers, made Nielsen’s “Power Mom 50″ list of highest influence parenting blogs & portals.
I feel so very lucky to get to write for Babble, with its incredibly smart & super nice editors who make my work better every time. And I love reading Babble’s great, provocative writing from a wide variety of voices and points of view. Last I heard (not sure if my essay made the final cut), one of my pieces for them will be included in a soon-to-be released Babble anthology.
My relationship with this fabuloso publication continues to be a highlight of my writing career thus far. Thanks, Ada, Gwynne, April, and everybody else at Babble, and congrats on your continued success! (Also, I can’t wait to read Babble Editrix in Chief Ada Calhoun’s forthcoming book on Gen-X parenting.)
And congrats to all the other awesome bloggers who made the Nielsen list. My personal favorites among the group are BusyMom and FinSlippy. Of course, some of the very best parenting writing in the country – writing in general, actually – takes place every day on the tens of thousands of “mom blogs” that aren’t on that list. There are so many incredibly talented women writers blogging out there. They may not make any sort of media list, but these bloggers attract lots of readers and commenters and community around their fantastic voices and sensibilities. And this reminds me; I really need to get cracking on getting my blogroll repopulated with all of my favorite blogs. My complete list got eaten when I moved to this new blog template and domain, but you can see some of my favorite parenting bloggers over there in the list to your left. Check ‘em out.
