Destiny’s Child: Blog Review

6 March 2010 4 Comments

As you remember Rajlakshmi with the post  The Saviour Angel was one of the winners of our Show Your Best contest. The prize was a review of her blog on The Colors Magazine.So, let’s start.

I have happened to come across Rajlakshmi’s blog Destiny’s Child some time ago when she participated in the first contest we ever had here - 55 Fiction Writing Contest. With the story Her Last Breath she took the third place back then and surprisingly it was her first try on 55 Fiction. No doubts, the girl is talented. The more reasons to check out her blog.

The Author

That is how Rajlakshmi describes herself.

I am a fun loving girl … trying to make niche for myself … {search for the location is still in progress} … I hopelessly believe in everything that exists in this Universe … {read that as incredibly credilous }… I can even hop along if someone tells that Alpha Centauri has come down to meet me… currently suffering from blogossesive disorder …

Design

For a long time the blog had a simple design, nothing that fancy or super unique but you would not notice it at all because of the content this girl provided on a regular basis. When you read good stuff, you don’t care much about design. When you read posts in a reader (like I do) you don’t care about the design at all. However right now Rajlakshmi seems to have found a perfect design for her blog. It is cute, colorful and very positive.

The blog

Destiny’s Child started in September 2008 but it seems to be the only post in 2008 and the active blogging phase started in 2009 becoming more intensive towards the end of the year. The posts are a mix of random ramblings on different topics and creative writing. The variety of topics is so large that the tags take up half of the page in blog’s sidebar.

As example of her creative writing you can check out short stories - An Awakening and Gift a Smile. A special mention needs shape poetry which she has quite a number of pieces on her blog including the winning entry. The ones I liked the most are Colors of Love, Strewn Across the Sky and Twist in Love. You have already checked The Saviour Angel, have you not?

What is special about Rajlakshmi’s blog is not that she is writing great (which she actually does) but that she constantly works on improving, introducing new creative forms and ideas. You not only have fun and enjoy her writing but you learn new things and have a chance to improve yourself too. Isn’t it the best part of blogging, when we learn from each other, share experiences and knowledge.

Another proof of how great the blog is are the tokens of love in the form of awards given to her by fellow bloggers. She deserves each one of them and more. If you still have doubts, drop by and check yourself, I am sure you will not be disappointed.

If you want your blog to be reviewed, it is not impossible. Take part in our February Contest, submit your best post and be the winner. Simple as that. It is Free and it is Fun, as well as the opportunity to present your blog to new readers.

    Hello dear Lena,

    With my mom here last month and suffering arm pain, I have just been not blogging so much, tweeting more because it is so addicting, but not good for me to be on the computer so much. However, I am finally back and getting around to here. Love reading this blog review, and will check out her blog, it sounds very interesting! I love that you are doing these contests. I don’t know if I will participate this month, still feeling so inconsistent and all, but I will soon. Anyway, big hugs. ♡CAT
