Today’s Armchair BEA topic is: Blogging about Blogging
Blogging for me needs to be a pleasure, not a source of stress. I tend to keep my schedule fairly loose, probably too much so. Actually I saw a post earlier today about how she keeps her calendar that I think I might borrow from, a little more organization could certainly help me.
But I do blog for enjoyment. I love reading and like to share my thoughts. I’m just pleased that others take the time to read them and comment. My blog, I will admit, tends to veer off course fairly often into un-book-related territory. I post pictures, talk about things like shoes or my family, write bits of fiction. In a way, I guess, it’s a reflection of my life. Books are a part of it, the part I share the most often, but I can’t keep out the rest.
Since this is the last day of Armchair BEA, I want to thank the organizers. This has been a great week. I’ve met some wonderful bloggers and learned a lot. I’ll be looking forward to it next year, when of course I won’t be able to go to New York again.
I love your blog just because it is able to surprise me very nicely veering off the topic! I am never bored here!
I don’t have a schedule either except for my Weekend Birding feature (and that has nothing to do with books). I do try to post at least three times a week because I think it’s good to be consistent.
Going off course is fine with me. It could get boring to be nothing but books… unless it’s your business blog. I like to know a little about a person’s other interests too. And btw, I love shoes!
I live and die by my calendar with my blog and real life!
