There are so many great writers on the Internet who are talking about Trigeminal Neuralgia both on this site, Living With TN, and outside of the network. We would love to highlight the best blogs here. If you write a blog. or there is a really good one you read, and you would like it to be featured here, please write a brief intro in the Comments with the following:

1) Blog Name

2) Blog Address (URL - e.g. [http://blog.bensfriends.org/](http://blog.bensfriends.org/))

3) A short description of your blog - What you talk about, any special perspective you provide, etc.

Next - we will highlight it in this discussion and then link to it. We'll also link to it on the Ben's Friends blog ([http://blog.bensfriends.org/](http://blog.bensfriends.org/))

We can't wait to see your posts!

Hello Ben, I have had my blog "The Iceman cometh" featured on the TN site. Feel free to use it anywhere you like if you want to. I am not a consistent writer - because I am laid flat most of the time with the pain. I think you are doing a magnificent job with this site. Thanks so much. It is a great help to homebound people like me.

Wondering.....does blogging help cope? I'm a writer, I write for a newspaper here and I'm currently working on my first novel. I keep a handwritten journal, but does the act of blogging and getting feedback on that blog, help?

I think writing a blog helps because others read it and they benefit from your experiences. you get to contribute to others. :)

Hi Ben,

What a thoughtful gesture! I have a blog called Simply Hue. [http://matissecolor.blogspot.com/](http://matissecolor.blogspot.com/) I blog about art, color, photography, and design but also try to personalize it by talking about my own life and experiences .... both the good and the not-so-good.

I look forward to seeing the other blogs ... thanks for doing this!

~ Vicki
