FINAL UPDATE!
Time for an update…
Come on everybody, let’s Bloggiesta!
Natasha from Maw Books Blog came up with Bloggiesta – the idea of devoting some specific time to perfect your blog and connect with other bloggers. It’s now co-hosted by Suey andDanielle. The little mascot is PEDRO (Plan, Edit, Develop, Review Organize) – how cute!
I only found out about Bloggiesta today from Judith at Leeswammes’ Blog but it sounded just what I needed. There are a few little housekeeping things I’ve been meaning to do on the blog, and this is the perfect opportunity. What is so great about Bloggiesta is that you can do as much or as little as you have time for over the weekend.
I have created a modest to do list:
- DONE Update my profile picture – I have a brilliant new chibi-style picture drawn by my friend Michelle to use.
- DONE Update the ‘About Me’ page.
- DONE Add a Search toolbar to the blog.
- DONE Investigate becoming a Waterstones affiliate.
- I MANAGED TO DO ONE Check out the mini-challenges on the Bloggiesta! website.
- A COUPLE GOT WRITTEN Catch up on some reviews (I won’t commit myself to a number!)
So, not too much, but I feel happy about having the extra focus.
Sarah, fantastic list that's doable not like my monster list LOL

Glad I inspired you to join in, Sarah! It's nice to spend a bit of time thinking about the blog and it certainly doesn't have to be 3 days full-time.
Hope you're enjoying it and that you'll be able to strike off all the items on your list.
