It’s been a while since I’ve done a blog review, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t let you guys know about Untwisted Vortex, written by RT.

I couldn’t tell you how I came across this site, but I am glad I did! There’s content for most of us out there, whether we are blogging for money or not. I enjoy RT’s writing style. He writes with passion, authority and humor – three things I think are most important when writing/blogging.
