Welcome to the Crafty Princess Diaries, my weblog and site where I get to blab about my passion for crafts, primarily jewelry making, and my crafting career. My name is Tammy Powley, and I decided to call my blog the Crafty Princess Diaries because of this very dorky picture I have of myself and because my husband often refers to me as “the princess and the pea,” which is just another way to say that I tend to be particular sometimes. Along with this weblog, I have a number of jewelry making books published.

  1. There’s also a great online forum called AbsolueWrite Water Cooler (www.absolutewrite.com/forums/), it has a very active and vibrant non-fiction forum and free-lance writer’s forum, a special area set aside just for query critiques, agents, editors and successful writers (as well as newbies and everything in between) hang out there (over 20k members).

  2. Thanks for the link, Dawno!
