Feature and Follow #183 – 2014 Blogging Resolutions

How does this work? The goal is to increase blog followers and make friends. First you leave your name here on this post, (using the linky tools — keep scrolling!) then you create a post on your own blog that links back to this post (easiest way is to just grab the code under the #FF picture and put it in your post) and then you visit as many blogs as you can and tell them “hi” in their comments (on the post that has the #FF image). You follow them, they follow you. Win. Win. Just make sure to follow back if someone follows you!

Resolutions: Put together your blogger resolution list for all of us to see!

1.  Keep My Review Pile Under Control.   I did a great job of this last year and would love to continue to do it this year.

2.  Reduce my TBR Pile.  I have all these books I want to read and then I get all these other books I want to read….I totally failed on this last year.  Hopefully I can do better this year.

3. Don’t get review books that are late in a series I haven’t started reading.  I do this all the time.  I see the third or fourth book in a series I want to read up for review and grab it.  Then I read the 1st book and HATE it.  Then I slog through the rest of the series until I get to the review book.  It’s depressing and time consuming.  Repeat after me: “I will not request books from the middle of a series where I haven’t read the first book in the series yet.”

4. Do more spontaneous posting and be more socially active.   This is another resolution from last year.  I did okay on it last year.  I would like to do better this year.  However, I work….I have a kid…I do a lot of volunteer work….soooooo. Yeah, that may not work out well for me.  But we will see.
