From Examiner.com, written by N.E. Francis:
“We now live in a digital age, an age of YouTube and Facebook, where more and more people get their news, entertainment and other information online. Personal and professional blogs are everywhere online, ranging in subject from your neighbor’s backyard vegetable garden to your cousin’s newborn baby.
But where does one find a blog that’s expertly written and about subjects that appeal to a wide audience?
There are three blogs that I’ve found in cyberspace that are especially engaging, imaginative, and informative. These three particular blogs couldn’t be more different and divergent in thought (they’re about Food, Feminism and Marilyn Monroe respectively), yet all three completely capture my attention with each new blog post.”
About the Marilyn Monroe Collection Blog, Francis goes on to write:
“I have been a huge admirer of Marilyn Monroe since my childhood. I was a young girl when I first watched one of her early black-and-white films with my father one sunny weekend. When I saw Marilyn on-screen that day, I was immediately captivated. I’ve been a huge admirer ever since.
Scott Fortner, a Marilyn Monroe aficionado and collector, writes the best Marilyn blog out there—hands down. His blog is simply titled The Marilyn Monroe Collection and features the most extensive of accurate and respectful information on the movie legend.
Fortner shares exclusive photos of his vast collection of Marilyn’s personal and professional belongings (they were recently on exhibit in the Hollywood Museum this past summer), as well as writing about everything Marilyn, including current news items on Monroe, as well as his own personal thoughts.
His recent posts on the authenticity of a Marilyn Monroe dress going to auction (“At Auction: Marilyn Monroe Worn Dress…From Robert Slatzer?”) and a crypt near Marilyn’s being sold on Ebay (“Spend Eternity with Marilyn: Different Crypt, Same Story”) were compelling and persuasive, and I also enjoy reading Fortner’s various media interviews on Marilyn that he shares on the blog
Fortner takes pride in making The Marilyn Monroe Collection blog truly about “All Things Marilyn,” including news updates, photographs, artwork, contests and anything else having to do with the world’s most loved movie actress of all time.
For Marilyn Monroe fans and enthusiasts around the world, Scott Fortner has the one Marilyn blog to beat.“
