Blog of the Week — 2026-11-14
Discovering good writing, one week at a time.
Based on the past week, November 8, 2026 to November 14, 2026
There are many talented writers in the WordPress community. Some make us laugh, some make us think, some take us places we’ve never been, and others remind us that we’re not the only ones trying to figure out this thing called life.
Each week, BeingKevin takes a look around the WordPress community, scanning blogs and posts across selected categories and tags that I find interesting. From those discoveries, I put together a weekly shout-out to fellow bloggers whose writing, ideas, experiences, or creativity deserve a little extra attention.
The goal is simple: introduce readers to interesting writers, highlight posts they might otherwise miss, and give a little recognition to the people who make this blogging community what it is. There’s a lot more out there than what shows up in our own reading lists, and this is my way of helping people discover it.
A quick note about the selection: The post with the most likes doesn’t automatically become Blog of the Week. I keep an eight-week history, and each blogger can win only once during that period. This is intentional. There are plenty of good writers out there, and I’d rather spread the recognition around than keep giving the spotlight to the same people. It’s about discovering good writing, not running a popularity contest.
🏆 Blog of the Week
This week’s spotlight goes to My little corner of the world for their post “A Heart Unburdened”, which picked up 98 likes and 46 comments.
Some subjects deserve more than a passing glance, and this is one of them. A thoughtful piece that reminds us that not all struggles are visible to the outside world.
Not all war wounds are visible…

That’s a wrap for this week
That’s seven more reasons to step outside your usual reading habits and discover what other people are creating.
One of the things I enjoy most about blogging is that it introduces us to people, experiences, and perspectives we might never encounter otherwise. We don’t have to agree with everyone, share the same interests, or even understand every point of view to appreciate a well-told story or a thoughtful piece of writing.
So take a look, visit a few blogs, leave a comment, and perhaps find yourself a new favorite.
And if you’re a blogger, keep writing. You never know who’s reading, who’s relating, or whose week you might brighten with something you put into words.
Until next Saturday, happy reading!
