New Years Resolutions, Blog Edition

Happy New Year, readers!

In addition to a few personal resolutions, I've set a few goals for the blog this year. I'm trying to set goals that I can actually meet but ones that will challenge me to make Bookworm Boulevard the best it can be. Here they are:

1. Post frequently! Every day is probably not realistic, but I'm going to try for five days a week (with the exception of holidays).

2. Get rid of the "nothing" posts. If it's a post not to say something but just for the sake of posting something, then it probably isn't worth posting. (I used the word "post" a lot in that sentence.)

3. Be more involved in the blogger community. Comment more on other blogs, participate in challenges, contribute to things - like I said, be involved.

4. Balance professional and personal. I don't want to sound like a textbook or anything - I'm still trying to find "my" voice, but once I find it, I'm going to keep using it. But I want to try to keep my personal life off the blog for the most part.

5. Have fun with it. Blogging is something fun, not a chore -- I don't want to push too hard to be like the really successful book blogs and make it more of a job than something I enjoy doing. I really do love book blogging and I want to keep it that way!

Here's to a great 2011, readers!
