Tumblr is my second favorite blogging platform because of its customizability. I like it because you can choose from lot of themes and write your own theme. Tumblr also supports different kind of posts, like text posts, music, photo, photo sets etc. in which each of the post type can be customizable too.
Most of the tumblr bloggers are either photo bloggers or are writers. Text posts is the most used post format on tumblr. So, I thought to compile list of one of the best newly released themes for Tumblr.
These themes are not exclusive for writers only, you can use them for other post types too but these theme presents the text posts in well designed manner.
