It's good to see some theology doctoral students blogging. the four I know of are:
Scott Prather is a PhD student at aberdeen. He's working towards a dissertation is Barth and Yoder under Brian Brock and John Webster
Jason Goroncy is a PhD student at st. andrew's. He's working towards a dissertation on PT Forsyth. His blog is home to a vast library of Forsyth material
Nate Suda is a PhD student also at aberdeen. He's working towards a dissertation on the theology of colin gunton under John Webster
Jason Clark is a PhD student at king's college. He's working on a dissertation under andrew walker and luke bretherton.
any others out there?
The two others I know are:
i) Catholic Anarchy (http://catholicanarchy.org/) by Michael J Lafrate a phd student in Catholic Social theology.
ii) Aaron Ghiloni (http://www.aaronghiloni.blogspot.com/) a Phd student at Queensland University on John Dewey and his theological relebvance.

As someone usually accused of being too academic, I can honestly say that I couldn't care less if a blogger is a phd student or not.

Andy. The 4 (regular; there are lots of part timers out there who prefer to actually work on their thesis) bloggers that immediately come to mind are:
Reno Lauro (http://lauro.blogs.com) - at St Andrews.
Michael Jenson (http://mpjensen.blogspot.com/) - at Oxford.
Chris Tilling (http://www.christilling.de/blog/ctblog.html) - at Tübingen
Dan (http://americasyoungtheologian.blogspot.com/) - at Aberdeen

thanks for the other names. I know and read some of those blogs already ...
Graham, I wasn't trying to suggest anything, apart from that its good to see more blogging by PhD students and thereby bringing their research into a wider conversation. I guess the impression sometimes of doing a PhD is that its something you do by yourself with only a pile of books and maybe some fellow students for company. I like that those involved in academic theological study are engaging those who are not.
