Book and Blogging Goals for 2009

Here's a few things I want to change, improve or do in the coming year:


  • create a new profile picture, and then make it the one that I use for all my different accounts and web places. Get consistent!

  • be less shy. Comment more, add more friends! Make the blog a little more personal. Go to more book signings and/or events.

  • be more active at the Book Blogs Ning. Fix my page there to be somewhat interesting.

  • clean up the blog here. Ugh. It's so messy, kind of like my house.

  • don't be afraid of challenges. Have fun trying!

  • try to read 100 books again. But read more NF, more classics and some new-to-me genres.
  • keep going strong in the F2F book clubs, but give up with the online Yahoo book clubs (so sad to do this... this is where I "started".... my first Internet experiences!

I know there was more I was thinking of, but I can't think of them now. Anyway, here's to a fun new year of book reading and book blogging!

  1. I am trying to leave more comments too. It's hard with reader, cause I don't feel I have anything to add a lot of times so I don't click through. I'm trying to do so more.

    100 books is a lot!

  2. Messy blog, messy house - we are kindred spirits!

  3. More active on the Ning group? That's the reason I stay there...I don't have to do anything. ;)

    I wanted to drop by and wish you a Happy New Year. Yes, I know it's the fifth of the month. I'm so sorry. The book challenges have taken over my life right now.

    Anyway, this is going to be a great year in books! :)

  4. Well you've accomplished the new profile picture...way to go on that one.

    I have to get more involved in the book blogs ning as well...I fell like I've fallen behind on comments too.
