2012 Reading and Blogging Goals

2011 was a great year for books and blogging!  I can feel that 2012 is going to be even better!  I have posted several things to recap 2011, and now I am ready to bring on 2012!


2012 Blogging Goals

1. Post reviews in a more timely manner. Many times I end up going a week without a single review, and then post a bunch all at once.  I would like to be more consistent and post reviews as I am finishing books.

2. Have a better relationship with authors and include them more on my blog.  I am already in the process of adding author interviews and guest posts.  I will have my first guest post going up this week actually!  I would like to have an interview, guest post, giveaway, etc. at least once a week.

3.  Get to know my fellow bloggers a little better.  When I do talk to other bloggers, it is about something blogging related.  I would love to get to know them better, and maybe even find someone to host things together or participate in events together.

4. Attend a book event.  I live in a small town in Minnesota.  I would really have to search to find an event I'd like to attend, and I would more than likely have to travel outside of Minnesota.  I would be happy if I could attend even just one book event this year.
