Book Blogger Confessions (6)
This week's question:
We have created a blogging time machine! Pretend you can start over. Knowing what you know now about blogging – what do you wish you did differently when it comes to creating your blog?
Honestly, I don't think I would start over. All the bumps and starts along the way, taught me what I know about blogging now. I needed all those experiences to make my blog what it is today. I'm not one to really wish to change the past about anything because I'm a firm believer in learning from your mistakes building you character and making you a better person.
That being said, if I had to choose one thing to do differently, I would have started scheduling out my posts earlier on. In the beginning, I wasn't very consistent with my review postings. Some days would have 3-4 reviews posted in one day, and then I wouldn't post another one for several days. I much prefer the consistency scheduling allows me.
Erm.. I just thought about something else I would change (I know, I know I said I don't believe in changing things, but this one isn't really an experience learner so it doesn't count. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.) If I could, I would go back to when I was creating the blog/email/twitter handles and I would make them all match. I just wish I had of made my email and twitter some form of A Book Obsession.. as it would have made it easier for readers to keep it associated with me and my blog. That's the biggest reason why I never change my avatar of a vamp mouth biting a red rose, as that consistency across all the different platforms hopefully helps make it obvious all the accounts belong to me.
