For a while now, I've been trying to come up with some kind of post that I can do on a semi-regular basis that doesn't necessarily have to be book-related. I really enjoyed fangirling all about the Simpsons back in September and have wanted to try to add some more random topic-type posts into the mix since then. As usual, time has evilly conspired to prevent me from doing this, and it's also a big reason why I'd like to do this. I hate seeing the blog go stagnant when I'm too busy to finish a book and get it reviewed. Having the flexibility to still write a post, even though it might not focus on books, puts my mind at ease a little.
So today is basically a little introduction to this type of post, but I also wanted to take a moment to get in the spirit of Thanksgiving, since it's this Thursday. I can't thank you guys enough for sticking around with the blog. Reading your comments here and chatting with you on Twitter and Goodreads truly, truly make my day. On the days when I'm feeling blah about blogging because my time is so tied up with life outside of books, I think of how terribly I'd miss interacting with all of you if I gave up blogging. I've been talking to some of you for over 2 years now, and your friendship means the world to me. So thank you again, and if you celebrate Thanksgiving, I hope it's a very, very happy one!
Awww ♥ I know I'm not alone in saying, I'd really miss you if you gave up on blogging so I love that those blah blogging days are made better by thinking of your readers! I'm a huge fan of these types of posts so I'm really excited you came up with this!! I'm already looking forward to see what we'll be chatting about in the upcoming weeks :D
ReplyDeleteAww, thanks! ♥ I get really nervous about trying new things, not just blogging things, either, But I'm really excited about this, too, and I feel it'll take a little bit of the stress out of keeping up with the blog when I don't have time to write a review.
DeleteHappy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteI too get antsy when I don't have a post going up for the week and blogging can be a big time sucker. I've realized that I don't always have to blog about reviews, I can start discussions like this one. Problem is I have no filter so I might get in trouble. LOL
I actually wish that I were more unfiltered. I hold a lot in, which isn't healthy, either. I LOVED that post you did recently about overused tropes; it was brilliant!
DeleteHappy Thanksgiving to you, too, Braine! :D
