Fall 2013 Bloggiesta!!

I am so excited to finally have a chance to join in on Bloggiesta– a blogging marathon that was created several years ago by Natasha from Maw Maws Book Blog!

“The idea behind Bloggiesta is to spend these next three days working on perfecting your blog and connecting with other bloggers who are doing the same thing. Spread the word and get all your friends to come and fiesta with us!”

Here is my To Do List-

~ Cross post reviews on Amazon, Goodreads, Librarything, etc.

~ Make a Reviews page (I think I finally got the whole link thing down-I know, very lame)

~ Complete A to Z Survey that was created by Jamie at The Perpetual Page Turner

~Post Part Two of The Book Thief Read Along questions and answers

~ Try to come up with 5 more books to complete my Classics Club list (any suggestions are appreciated!)

~ Join The Classics Club

~Last but not least, maybe find a new theme that has the cool widgets I really want- the ones with the little pics for FB and Goodreads-any suggestions?????

~Check out the following mini challenges:

Please leave a comment-I love to hear from you!

Good luck!

Great goals! I’m looking forward to your Book Thief post! I should post my thoughts on Amazon as well.

I need to join the Classics Club also… get a list going for that!! Good luck on your goals!

That’s a whole lotta stuff to do in three days! Pace yourself! 🙂

Oh, I should add cross linking my reviews to my list! Good luck with your list.

Good luck with your list…I’ll be watching for what you discover in themes…I’m always hunting for new ones.

Here’s MY BLOGGIESTA POST

Do not feel bad for just figuring out the link thing- I’ve been blogging 4 years now and there are a million billion things I don’t know how to do… sometimes I don’t even know they’re possible until I accidentally stumble upon them during Bloggiesta! Good luck with your goals!

Good list! I created my review archive last year during one of the bloggiesta’s – this is the best time to do it!

Hope you’re getting lots done!

Great goals! As for wanting FB/GR, etc. buttons, you don’t need a special theme. I just googled social media buttons, downloaded a free pack, and manually put them into my sidebar using a text/html widget. From there, I made the buttons clickable with links to my pages. It’s not hard!

I am so lame- I tried it-got the buttons, etc, but I can’t figure out how to make the widget using the text/html widget. I need a pre made blog- just let me type in the word!

Great goals! Cross posting is something I always leave until Bloggiesta and then complain about how long it takes me. The A to Z survey is really fun to fill in – I loved creating mine. Good luck with the rest of your Bloggiesta!
