In the spirit of this thread I’m working on a blog series right now called Rising Stars, where I review some of Chess.com’s more underrated or less well-known bloggers.

Excellent!
Bloggers need exposure.
This thread needs exposure - it’s a brilliant idea and a good thread in a sea of unproductive “hot topics”, and I think I can get it some of the love it deserves.
(Maybe we can get it pinned? The idea of an official content thread sounds good to me.)
Thanks for the time and effort in putting this together - you are an inspiration - and in my case irreplaceable friend, to those of us who post on this site. With gratitude and respect.

Currently I am working on a defence series, which covers how different masters handled defending, which is often neglected in chess and by those hoping to improve their game. The latest instalment can be found here: https://www.chess.com/blog/toucanchess/defending-amos-burn-on-defence
Blogosphere is a great group for bloggers to interact with fellow writers and discover new pages. A fantastic community!
Love the thread idea, good work @batgirl
Thanks, but even though I posted my own links here (mostly to keep up the momentum), I designed thread mainly for everyone to shine a light on themselves or on anyone they think deserve a spotlight, whether for just one innovative oeuvre or for a catalogue of work.
For those of you who don't know, batgirl's been doing this for 10 yrs. Its about time she gets a little appreciation.
I am unable to post in my blog.. It says "Blog body requires" ... I don't know.. what's blog body ??
Are you trying to submit it without content (the "body" is where content goes)? You need both a title and content to be allowed to submit a blog posting.
I wrote this little humor piece a couple months ago and was disappointed to get no replies whatsoever. I did get some positive feedback in private messages.

My blog: The History Of Chess Pieces!
Well, I posted this blog 5 years ago. But I never expected that it would become a popular blog post. A lot of people appreciated me. This was even referred by many people in many websites. If you type 'rishikeshwaran chess.com' in Google, you could see that. It has been viewed by more than 32,000 people despite the fact that it wasn't available for the last four years as I closed my account. This really made me feel proud.

I wrote a program where white and black independently choses
one of three chess960 positions. I introduced it on:

The other one is not chess related, it is an article on racing tracks.
Early year 2010 I started wondering how a racing track with good
overtaking opportunities would look like. I couldn't find anything
written on it on the Internet so I decided to do it myself.
Summer 2010 I presented a racing track and wrote an article on it.
They are now on:
