As you might imagine, I read a lot of blogs. It’s literally my job to find and promote the best blogs out there. And while most of the blogs I profile fit nicely into one category or another, oftentimes there is an overflow of quality sites that don’t necessarily fit into one bundle. That's not to say they’re not worth reading -- they are worth it -- but, for whatever reason, they haven’t been profiled here … yet.

So, with that in mind, I’d like to take a brief tour through some random and also awesome blogs:

August, Interrupted is the story of one brave woman’s fight with cancer. It has all the resolve, courage and inspiration you might expect from such a blog. But, what you might be surprised to find on this blog is humor -- and you’ll certainly find a lot of it. If I were to pitch this blog, I’d look for stories on oncology and living with cancer. I’d also be prepared to be moved to tears. Check out the full review here.

Bike Gang! is the online home for stories relevant to biking, reviews of products, cool pictures and just about everything else two-wheeled. They also review "real people’s bikes," as well as promote information on best practices for road safety. If I were to pitch this blog, I’d look for anything bike-related. I understand they’re friendly to product reviews, too. Check out the full review here.

The Daily is the first "newspaper" for the digital age. It came about with the advent of the tablet reader and it "delivers" once a day. But, unlike most print publications, it updates constantly. Like most newspapers, it covers just about everything you’d want to know about. If I were to pitch this blog, I’d look for stories on any topic -- they seem to cover it all. Check out the full review here.

ONA Issues is a blog dedicated to the growing cadre of digital journalists. Not surprisingly, this is a growing concern. The world is going digital and so, too, is the news. But, that doesn’t mean that the rigorous ethics of journalism should go the way of the printed paper. This blog is here to keep those standards alive. If I were to pitch this blog, I’d look for anything to do with social media and journalism. Check out the full review here.

Four Pins is a fashion blog with a great sense of humor. But don’t get it twisted -- they also have a very good sense of fashion. In fact, I might be checking this site before I go fall clothes shopping. But this is a blog I’d follow even if I didn’t have clothes to buy. If I were to pitch this blog, I’d look for stories not just about fashion, but about where fashion intersects with other parts of life. Check out the full review here.

That’s all for now. In the meantime, if there’s a blog I should be reviewing, drop me a line or a note in the comments, and I’ll take a look. Until next time...

This week, my focus is on fitness blogs. And, truthfully, fitness should be everyone’s focus every week. As far as I know, these are the only bodies we get. Treating them well through exercise and care should be everyone’s priority. It stands to reason that other parts of our lives will probably see improvement as a result. Commuting can become easier; anxiety can be decreased; weights can even be lifted well into our golden years.

So, with that in mind, let’s tighten our laces, take a few deep breaths and enjoy this brief tour through some of the best fitness blogs I’ve seen lately:

Tight Laces in 50 Places is the story of one (possibly insane) man’s quest to run a half marathon in all 50 states. He likes to jog. He wants to see every state in the Union. This is his blog. Call him crazy (I did), but don’t say that it’s not an impressive effort. If I were to pitch this blog, I’d look for anything that sits at the intersection of jogging and travel. Check out the full review here.

Daily Cup of Yoga is the story of a man learning the daily practice of yoga. Just to be clear, he really began from nothing, having really never tried it only a few years back. Today, he has not only practiced yoga relentlessly, he has also read and collected just about everything written on the subject. If I were to pitch this blog, I’d look for stories surrounding yoga, as well as any products that come along with it. Check out the full review here.

Seacoast Fitness Daly is a blog dedicated to healthy living in coastal New Hampshire, specifically Portsmouth. But, don’t get it wrong -- this site extends way beyond the confines of this one town. If I were to pitch this blog, I’d look for stories that have to do with exercise. Anything to do with road races, triathlons or other sporting events in New England would probably also work. Check out the full review here.

High Heels & Two Wheels is not only the name of this blog, it’s also what this blogger can be seen sporting most days. That is to say, just because she has traded in the four wheels of her car for the two wheels of her bicycle does not mean she’s making her wardrobe suffer. If I were to pitch this blog, I’d look for stories surrounding biking and fashion. Check out the full review here.

Stumptuous is not technically a women’s weightlifting blog. It’s technically gender-neutral. And while I can safely say that a man can also find this blog helpful, it’s definitely geared toward the fairer gender. It’s also worth mentioning that this blog is hilarious. What’s more, it’s a great resource for anyone who wants to feel their best. If I were to pitch this blog, I’d look for stories on weightlifting. Check out the full review here.

That’s all for now. In the meantime, if there’s a blog I should be reviewing, drop me a line or a note in the comments, and I’ll take a look. Until next time...

This week, my focus is on Hispanic blogs. And that’s no coincidence. Hispanic Heritage Month is underway. Clearly, the Hispanic contribution to American society is immense.  Just look, well, anywhere! You’ll find it in politics and fashion and travel and food and entertainment and, well, just about everywhere. And obviously there are a ton of great blogs out there documenting this.

So, with that in mind, let’s brush up on our Español and enjoy this brief tour of some of the best Hispanic blogs I’ve seen lately:

VOXXI is, first and foremost, a news blog, and a Hispanic blog second. The Hispanic community reaches far across our culture. Not surprisingly, this blog also covers a lot of ground. If I were to pitch this blog, I’d look for stories where Hispanic culture intersects with politics, entertainment or business. Stories about Marco Rubio might work, too, as they have a certified “Rubiologist” on staff. Check out the full review here.

The Other Side of the Tortilla is technically a food blog. It’s got the pictures and the recipes to back that up. But, it’s also the story of a married couple. It’s also the story of discovering even that which could be quite close to you. If I were to pitch this blog, I’d look for stories around food, travel of photography. If you had a recipe for tortilla soup or something similar, that might work, but I wouldn’t necessarily bank on it. Check out the full review here.

Dos Lives is an entertainment blog located in New York City. The name comes from the straddling of two ("dos") lives. This is a blog about the Latino experience, but it’s probably true of any cultural group in America. There is a desire to become a part of the larger society while still keeping true to one’s roots. If I were to pitch this blog, I’d look for stories about entertainment, music or film. Check out the full review here.

Curves and Chaos is a blog dedicated to life, travel, beauty and fashion. And speaking of fashion, it’s not the type of blog to cater to women who resemble a Barbie doll or some other unrealistic shape or size. If I were to pitch this blog, I’d look for anything to do with travel and fashion. And If I were to pitch clothing, I’d make sure it was the kind of stuff that real people would wear. Check out the full review here.

The Domestic Buzz is written by a mother and wife in the suburbs of Washington, D.C. Not surprisingly, the blog deals a lot with matters of marriage and raising children. But it’s a lot more than that, too. It deals with politics and the environment and education. If I were to pitch this blog, I’d look for stories that affect families, both inside the house and out. Check out the full review here.

That’s all for now. In the meantime, if there’s a blog I should be reviewing, drop me a line or a note in the comments, and I’ll take a look. Until next time...
