Eric D. Knapp

Eric D. Knapp would do almost anything to get on the Best Seller's List, even considering revisions to his book's (Out of Place, Out of Time) cover art. Hmmm... EraCluck might just be hit!

His writing is tongue-in-cheek witty, and his genre is science fiction and fantasy. Blogging since at least June 2003, he's been around the block several times.

His Amazon.com profile states: "Knapp has been writing since the first grade, when he was awarded his first of two Young Author's Awards. Since then, Eric has graduated with a communications degree from the University of New Hampshire, and has studied literature and fiction at the University of London. As a telecommunications engineer and freelance technology writer, Knapp has contributed to industry magazines such as 'Telecommunications', 'Exchange', and 'ISP World'. He has recently been rewarded with the iUniverse 'Editors Choice' award for his newest novel, 'Out of Place Out of Time'Coincidentally, that book is available for sale on Amazon.com... (hint! hint!)"

Knapp also has a short story posted at hackwriters.com, called "Nine Flights, Ninety Five Steps."

The only think lacking on his blog is a way for visitors to comment...

Saint Anselm College Blog

The Saint Anselm College Blog is produced by the folks at Saint Anselm (please don't pronounce it AN-SLUM!) College in Manchester New Hampshire.

Of course right now many of the articles are politically-oriented (surprise, huh?), but the majority of the posts appear to be college announcements (focused toward students), and articles about faculty/staff/alumni in the news.

The maintainers of this blog are technologically savvy, and they produce a news podcast that is easily accessible.

Even for those who are not particularly interested in the college, you can learn some interesting things.... for example, one of their alumni (Class of 1977) Mark Sullivan was named director of the U.S. Secret Service a year ago. Actually I think I met mark when Al Gore was "wrapping the NH State House in red ribbon" a few years ago at an event I was coordinating.

A superior blog! Four stars for presentation and content.

NewHampshire.com Blogs

Did you ever have the yen to report your local news?

NewHampshire.com's BLOG section gives you the opportunity to do just that. Called "Your Neighborhood News," you can post a comment, an entire story and/or accompanying photograph or two.

Your news might just end up being newsworthy enough to appear in one of their affiliated publications.

IMHO New Hampshire

IMHO New Hampshire's subtitle aptly describes the articles found there: "A Conservative Take on Life, Politics and More, from New Hampshire."

The authors include Ron Dupuis, Michael Shackelford and Dave Buhlman, and the subject matter is definitely more political than anything else.

The articles in this blog are thought provoking, regardless of which side of the fence you stand on.

Merrimack Sites & Legends

Hooligan of "Merrimack Sites & Legends," lives in Derry New Hampshire, and works in the law enforcement or security field. His favorite books shows a penchant for things that go bump in the night, and he is a fearless researcher of ghosts and other strange phenomena.

A spanking brand new blogger, he began posting in July of 2007, and is currently focusing on "haunted" cemeteries in southern New Hampshire.

In addition to his personal experiences in the locations he describes, he includes some great photographs, and also a bit of history.

Are these places really haunted? Hooligan helps you decide. A supernatural "must see." Besides, Janice of Cow Hampshire thinks he may just scare you.

Blitzburg New Hampshire

The blogger at Blitzburg New Hampshire goes is a Steeler Fan living in New Hampshire. The subheadline states "Let's wave those Terrible Towels."

This NH Steeler fan is looking for dialog and hoping to pump up some fans in the Granite State. They seem to know what they are talking about... but being sports-challenged myself, I'm certainly not the one to comment on that part :D


Hey, stop by and leave your two cents, or at least wave a terrible towel!

Kurious Kitty's Kurio Kabinet

Cat's aren't allowed in the library, but that doesn't stop the librarian at the Nesmith Library in Windham NH.

Diane Mayr's blog, "Kurious Kitty's Kurio Kabinet" is educational, but don't let that scare you. She is also very entertaining.

Do you know what an Espresso Machine is? (It has nothing to do with coffee). Did you ever see a Mercedes Beanz? Do you have post-Potter depression? Find the answers here.

Great reading, two thumbs up! (or more depending on how many thumbs you have).
