You may have noticed that I love drawing your attention to Mage blogs.
Primarily because there seem to be so few, then suddenly out of no where one appears.
The problem I find is that no sooner have I found the one, then I find a little trail leading to another and another and another.
So today I am going to share some Gifts (Blogs brought to my attention) and discoveries (blogs I stumbled across).
Gifts
A new Mage blog, but judging by the 3rd post, a song, we have lots to look forward too!
Eury dropped a note in my about page… A Gift!
As I said in my initial response…
When I read your blog url http://sheepblinkinvis.com/ I “read” sheep in bikinis…. so I had to go look… still I wasn’t all that disappointed when I realized it was Sheep-Blink-Invis… still Sheep in bikinis would be something to see….
Another new blog, thankfully Sprink linked a blog post to my Noobaggedon post, thus a Gift!
Cathy, who I have mentioned before for her guest spots on The WoW Street Journal, has started up her own Mage Blog, Magerly Different. Early days, but make sure you check out her blog and leave comments so she knows she isn’t alone.
No, not a mage blog, but Cass wrote to tell me that her Not Another Mage Blog has gone the way of the Dodo, but she is still writing, just with a new bent.
Discoveries
DPS …We Deliver: Discussions about the Mage class in World of Warcraft
Dispite similarities between this Mage blog name and a certain Hunter Blog (DPS: We Deliver: The ongoing evolution of a Huntard) this is a Mage blog.. which the URL will clarify if nothing else…http://fireandfrost.wordpress.com/
World of Warcraft Mage Guide to Raiding: A simple, direct guide to help WoW mages perform in raids
This blog has been around for a while… since February.
I am kicking myself that I didn’t discover it sooner, heaps of information for your raiding Arcane or FrostFire Mage.
Highlights include Arcane and FrostFire how to’s, and clear Mage specific guides to a couple of Naxx bosses and he’s working on the Ulduar bosses now.
I hate it when I find out about stuff so late…
Karch, why didn’t you call?
Any other lurkers?
If you are a Mage, with a Blog and are lurking out there, please drop by and give me the good news… Sure I don’t have enough time to read my feedreader, but you can be sure that the Mage blogs come first!
Gnomer and Out!

Mage blogs come first??!? Well, just for that I’m going to go roll a mage so I can blog about it. (Assuming I can get her to survive past level 12 or so…)
Wait? this is a mage blog?
Come on, you had to see that coming.
Ooh, these are some pretty nifty sites. I’m a mage myself, so the more mage blogs I have to peek at, the happier my pewpew is. And I do have a blog, but how much there is about mages is a whole other story 😛
Thanks for listing these. I don’t play a mage myself, but I’m always interested in learning more about other classes 🙂
There are some real gems here, thanks for pointing them out! 😀
Aww, thanks for the nod! ^_^ Now I have to check out the other ones you mentioned…
Thanks for the links! More good stuff too read! I need to find a frost mage blog. I love my little frosty mage but everything is fire/arcane…there must be some out there!
@GameDame: As soon as you start blogging about a Mage, I will be there to comment on every post…. Hang on, I’m there to comment on every post already… 12’s easy… 9’s the biatch
@Pie: Mmm I thought we had this discussion once before… Damn that Dragonflight and their Caverns of Time!
@Consolea: Lots more where they came from… just check out ReadByGnome at the top!
@Kel: Well, I guess the thing about most blogs is that they are more than just a Class blog… lots of entertaining reading out there, it’s more about knowing when to stop subscribing…
@Repgrind: Gems they are.. always a pleasure. Ironically, World of Warcraft Mage Guide to Raiding, was started because he couldn’t find any Mage blogs… which kind of echos my reasons. and my post Message in a Mage Netherbottle
@Sprink: Tis a pleasure!
@Troutwort: Frost mage Blogs? Never seen any… Ohh apart from SpicyTunas, Tachyon’s,
FrostFire is the new Black, Automagica! and probably more amongst my blog roll… I wouldn’t know, I never read them.. too much Frost!Thanks for plugging my mage blog! 🙂 I appreciate it!
@Karch: No problems at all… Like you, I started blogging because I couldn’t find any (well, many) Mage blogs… so I make a point of mentioning them…
You have inspired two new posts out of me… just need the time to write them
DotA Allstar game is the best !!!
Hey, these are pretty cool blogs. Thanks for highlighting them. Now I have more interesting stuffs to follow. Great!
1. Thanks for the plug – you rock!
2. Sheep in Bikinis. I feel something creative stirring.
2a. Wait, the bf cooked dinner. That might just be heartburn.
3. I am immediately petitioning Blizz to get a bikini as a reward for the next world event. Midsummer. I mean, doesn’t a bikini sound appropriate for the Burning Hot Pole Dance achievement? (No really, I didn’t make that one up: http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=271).
