Since the blogging community is such a revolving door, I thought I'd put a call out for new bloggers. Why? Well, a long time ago, Pat gave me a shout-out from the Fantasy Hotlist, and it was a great boost for me. I haven't been paying as much attention to incoming linkage as I once did due to some inescapable busyness, and I thought this might make up for lost time.
So if you've been running your science fiction or fantasy related blog for at least a week or so, but for less than six months, please leave a comment with the following info:
Blog Name
Blog Web Address (clickable or otherwise)
The focus of your blog
I'll use the info to update my blogroll and to create a list that I will post at some point in the near future, when the comments here die down.
Also, we could use some fresh blood at our blogging community, Dragon Federation, which was created by Mulluane. When you're done leaving your comment, go join!

That's really awesome of you! Thanks!
