The Write On review-a-thon is a monthly event created and hosted by Brianna at The Book Vixen. It’s 2 days dedicated to getting reviews done, whether you have one review to write or 30+. This edition of the review-a-thon takes place all day Saturday, July 26th and Sunday, July 27th. Let’s get those reviews done! Follow us on Facebook and Twitter for updates.  

For future Write On review-a-thon dates check the schedule.

I currently am 12 reviews behind and I really need to catch up on them before I forget what I want to say. So this weekend I will (finally) dedicate some time towards writing and scheduling them. Let's see how well I am doing.

It's time to Part! 

Spring Bloggiesta starts tomorrow (March, 27th) and last till Sunday (March,30th).

Bloggiesta is a time where bloggers dedicate a bit more time to their blogs, fixing little things, revamping pages, images, sidebars,scheduling posts, ...
Focusing on those things that we cannot be bothered to fix immediately or things that need more time to revamp and simply cannot be done while our day to day life needs our undivided attention. During Bloggiesta many bloggers take time to work on their blogs, chat with each other about their progress, cheer each other on and the lovely people behind bloggiesta not only organized daily Twitter chats but also Mini-Challenges to help us improve our blogs.

If you want to know more about Bloggiesta, the times of the Twitter chats or when the next one will be visit the official Bloggiesta homepage. There you can also sign in to participate in the Spring Bloggiesta.

Here is my To-Do List for the next four days:

• Revamp my "About Me" page
• Schedule some posts
• Write some reviews
• Write a Blog-Plan for April
• Back-up Blog
• Back-up Templates
• Comment more on other blogs
• Update my Sidebar
• Update my Booktube Love page
• Update my List of Reviews page
• Prepare my TTT posts
• Sort out Labels
• Try to participate in at least on Twitter chat
• Update my Currently Reading picture
• Update Books I Read List 
• Have fun and enjoy spending a bit more time with my blog

If I can think of any other things that need my attention I will add them during Bloggiesta and I will also update you on my progress here.

Are you joining too? What are your plans?

It was time for Bloggiesta!

Sad to say but Bloggiesta is over again. I really enjoyed working on my blog, connecting with other bloggers and chatting with all of you guys. Here is my to-do list again. I accomplished a lot and I will continue working on my blog on Monday too so that I will at least finish my reviews and will be able to schedule some more posts. I still have no idea what to do with my "About" page but I will find a solution pretty soon - I hope! 

 

My goals:

• write my review for Ettiquette & Espionage
• write my review for The Archived
• write my review for Reunited
• write my review for Simply Irresistible
• write my review for Snuff
• write my review for Snark & Circumstance
• update my "About" page
• update my List of Reviews
• update my Challenge page
• write and schedule posts for next week
• write and schedule Photochallenge posts for the next weeks
• do my Photochallenge post for this week
• write all my ideas down in one place and not have small pieces of paper floating around everywhere (Organization is the key word here!)
• write and schedule my Showcase Sunday post
• HAVE FUN! - accomplished :) 

I had 14 things I wanted to do during the last three days and was able to finish 10, which I'm happy with. I am looking forward to the next Bloggiesta which will be sometime in September if I am informed correctly.  

A big thank you for all the nice comments that I received here, welcome to my new followers and a nice week to all of you!
