Mini-Bloggiesta To-Do List

January 21, 2014

Mini-Bloggiesta 2014

I’m not a resolutions kind of person, mostly because they seem to beg me to be broken but when I saw the challenge from the mini-Bloggiesta I decided it was worth doing. It’s a weekend of going through your blogging to-do list and getting the things done you’ve been putting off for months weeks. At the same time there are tutorials and min-challenges to learn new tips about blogging. It takes place this coming weekend (January 25th-26th) and here’s what I’m hoping to accomplish:

  1. Add reviews to Goodreads and Library Thing

  2. Change or fix one thing on sidebar

  3. Write reviews for at least two backlogged books

  4. Get caught up on book blogs- with comments!

  5. Do two mini-challenges

 

If you’re interested in this, it’s not too late to sign up! Just go to The Bloggiesta home page.

    I’m so glad you’re joining in! I’m hosting one of the mini challenges and I think Monika is, too. You reminded me that I need to load some of my reviews into LibraryThing, too!

    This is a never ending list for me! I did a mini blog fix up at the New Year…added all those links to Home, About, Contact, etc. It’s satisfying to fix up your blog.

      Jennine- I’d really like to get a personalized header like what you have but don’t know about spending the money. If only I could draw…and knew web design!

    I’ll be participating in Bloggiesta too and have a short to-do list. Hopefully I can focus on getting them knocked out. Good luck and look forward to see how you are doing this weekend.

    Good luck with your goals, Catherine. I need to work on my blog some too. Thanks for the great link. There’s a lot of useful information at the other end!

    Good luck! And remember, you can always writing mini-reviews or skip reviewing a book if it gets too overwhelming 😀

    Good luck with your list! Catching up on commenting is a big item! I’ve been trying to do that myself this morning (I should have put it on my Mini Bloggiesta list) and one blog leads me to another, to another, etc.

      There are just so many great blogs out there! I start reading one and it leads to another and my afternoon is gone. Today I’ll do focused reading!

      I was doing really well on the administrative stuff but am struggling with the tough stuff- writing!
