If there's one thing I've learned about writing over the past year or so, it's that everybody does it differently and there isn't a single "DO IT THIS WAY" instruction that will work for everyone. That said, I find it helpful to hear how other people go about writing and what works or doesn't work for them, so I can test out other techniques and see if they work for me or not.

Here are a few blogs I've found useful. I'm curious if anyone else does this, and which authors you've found have the most helpful tips.

Maggie Stiefvater
Blog

She has a tag on her blog for "how i write" so I think it's possible to just locate the entries on writing.

I just finished her book The Scorpio Races and found an interesting blog entry she'd done recently comparing a marked up copy of a chapter in her rough draft page by page with the final, published version.

I always like looking behind the curtain to see really what's going on and what kinds of things people are thinking about...

Shannon Hale
She has a section of her website on writing here.

Patrick Ness
He wrote a series on writing tips when he was associated with something called booktrust.
