Follow Friday Fun
Hi everyone! It has been a little while since I have participated in this meme and I am so happy to finish 2011 with an awesome FF question!
Q : The New Year is here — and everyone wants to know your New Years Blogging Resolution! What are you going to try to revise, revamp and redo for 2012 on your blog?
I love this weeks question! I have a lot of plans for 2012 to keep my blog more organized and to keep my review load under control. First off I am using Evie's TBR reading challenge as a way to catch up on all of my outstanding reviews and "to read" list titles.
I have a new featuring coming up for 2012 called Incredible Indies where I will feature a new indie author each month and so far I have my authors lined up 2 months in advance so I hope that will help with scheduling stress. I plan to have more reviews written up ahead of time so that when months like these past few happen (sick kids, extra work etc.) I will not fall behind on reviews.
What about you? What are your blogging plans for 2012?
I hope you will also join me on twitter @handshomeblog













I can't wait for Incredible Indies!

Hopping through. So good to see you on here Bonnie! Your indie feature sounds very interesting. I don't read enough indie authors.

Thanks Alison, it has been a while! I’m now working on Thursday nights and by the time I get home the post has been up forever and I hate showing up to a party late!
I found some indie authors that I really loved this year which prompted me to start this feature – and I’m really excited about it! Have a wonderful new years hun!
I have some goals as well, but you sound like you're pretty organized. I hope you make it work!

Thanks Anna, I am organized in theory! It is just putting it into practice when life gets crazy that can be difficult!
Thanks so much for visiting and following, I’ll be sure to return the favour!
Great resolution! It's so helpful to have stuff scheduled in advance. I always feel so much more successful when I do that.

I definitely think it will take the pressure off for weeks/months when we are busy with birthdays, or school, or just regular family life!
Thanks so much for visiting – happy new years! <3

Thanks Laura! I found some great books by indie authors this year and find that the good ones don’t often get the recognition they deserve.
That is a great idea! I can't wait to read all about those authors.

Thank you Maja. If this feature goes well for 2012 I hope to feature twice as many for 2013, so far I have 12 authors lined up and can’t wait to share them with you all!
Oh I love the Incredible Indies feature. That is a great idea! New follower here dropping by to say hi.

Thanks Kate, I think it is going to be a great feature!
The Indie author feature is a great idea I've read a lot of awesome indie books in 2011 that deserve attention!

Thanks so much Giselle, I am really excited for it. I found some great indie authors and publishers in 2011 and really wanted to be able to showcase them in 2012!
Funny, I literally just came back from leaving a comment on your review of Switched when I saw this one!
