Top Ten Tuesday is featured by That Artsy Reader Girl. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.
Topic: Ways in Which My Blogging Style Has Changed Over Time
So I thought I’d separate out into 10 sections about my blog, my posts, me and how it’s changed over the years!
1. My blog and age!
I actually started my blog in 2015 but predominantly posted PR company material about cover reveals, releases etc for romance books until I moved that to my Facebook page as I wanted my website to be my ‘own voice’.
2. Genres
As I said above, I only used to post about romance but then I branched out to my first love: pnr, fantasy, romantasy….and I haven’t stopped!
3. Favourite posts
I used to really love making posts about next month’s releases that I want. I used to comb through Goodreads lists, Bookbirds lists and several romance blogs and marvel at all the books I wanted but now I just dont seem to have the time – I need to get back to that!
4. Favourite aspect of book blogging?
The community. I love reading people’s comments on my posts and love reading other bloggers posts and commenting. I try and put aside an hour every evening to do this and it’s normally the most interesting, relaxing hour of my day!
5. The worst thing……
Facebook/TT/Booksta and the drama! The book community used to be a fab place to be but now, not so much!
6. Writing posts…..time and relaxation!
What is time?! I try and write some bulk posts and schedule in just in case time runs away with me at work! I put my pjs on and tap away at posts!
7. Writing posts – prep
I usually type posts up on my phone in notes (like I’m doing now!) and then I add to WordPress, add pics, look at spelling, fonts, colours and add anything I think the post needs. I find the WordPress app easier to use than the full site!
8. My favourite series I found because of blogging?
Throne of Glass by Sarah J Maas. I read years ago (and have reread) and am still obsessed!
9. Blog Success
If I’m happy in my bubble, that counts as success to me!
10. Will I ever stop blogging?
I have no idea! I guess if my love for reading ever goes away then my blog will too (even typing that made me sad!)
I could also never lose my love of reading, Caro – unthinkable.
