Feature & Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read. Each week they feature a fellow book blogger and ask a question so we can all get to know each other a little better and build a solid network of bookish friends :).
Q. What would you do over if you were to start your blog again from scratch?
Hmmm.. Well I would never start again from scratch, I can tell you that much, but I'm finding my blog is never finished or just the way I want it, so I don't need to start all over. I'll just work with what I got. I'm totally rockin' the For Dummies books, learning xhtml, css, and web design right now, but I'm in the very beginning stages. As I progress, I make changes, getting ever closer to how I want my blog to look.
As for the blogging itself... I don't know as I would do anything different. My blog is one of my favorite places to visit (besides the inner pages of a good book, of course), and I don't think there's anything I would change. Maybe I would try to stay on top of bookish news such as new releases, cover reveals, and book trailers. I'm still a day or two late stumbling upon those, but I do try with what limited time I have.
Wow, I'll spare you any further reading and allow my rambling to cease. Have a great weekend everyone!
Happy Reading Everyone :)

Great answer :) I've always been in to web design and all that good stuff and when I started my blog, it wasn't that hard for me to know what I want. I could picture it in my minds eye. But, I totally hear you on being a day or two behind on those cover reveals and what not.. sometimes I think these bloggers have "book esp" or something.. cause laaawd knows I'm stumped when I see that practically every blog I follow has the cover release for a book I've been TRYING to keep track of *sigh* we win some, we lose some..

I'm over a year into my blog and it never stops changing! Those subtle "tweaks" that no one ever really notices. ;)
ReplyDeleteAs for book news and things of that sort: My advice is stalk Amazon, Goodreads, Twitter, Facebook, publisher websites/blogs, etc. Anywhere there are books! :) Sign up for every mailing list you can find.
Old followere here, just wishing you a very great/awsome weekend. :)

Awesome answer, Keely! <3 Haha, it makes me smile that you posted the for dummies book - everyone around me loved that book! Maybe I should pick the book too, and together we can become HTML whiz hehe! x)
