Book Blogger Appreciation Week: Coming Events

You may have seen some buzz around this event. Blogger Amy kicked off plans last month and it’s gotten a lot of momentum. The official site is here: BBAW and you should definitely check it out, for the tons of giveaways, if nothing else.

I’m planning to use BBAW as a sort of inspiration to try some new things. As you may know, if you’ve been following Alpha Heroes very long, I do have a day job, and kids, and a few other things to do besides read and blog, so although I’m having a blast with this blog and remain slightly obsessed with tracking my statistics, it’s still very much a dabbly part-time thing for me. My goal is to always post at least once a week, and I shoot for twice. This coming week, I’m going to ratchet up the pressure a notch, and try a couple of new things. One of those new things involves a strange concept called “planning ahead.” In order to meet my goals for the week, I’m going to have to get a lot of the work done this weekend and then post on a schedule. That’s very new for me; once I have a post composed I usually can’t wait to get it posted and shared. But at any rate, here is my plan for Book Blogger Appreciation Week:

Monday: Advance review of newcomer Robin Kaye
Tuesday: Alpha Heroes’ first hosted challenge
Wednesday: Giveaway announcement (sign up here.)
Thursday: Upcoming Releases
Friday: Grand Finale, a review of my currently most prized possession, an [autographed, squee!] ARC of Meljean Brook’s Demon Bound.

I hope you’ll join me and the rest of the BBAWers this week, and just wallow in the book-love.

This is why I love Wordpress. I have 10 different posts to put up this week and they are all set to go. I can schedule them to post at a certain time on any day and then I can forget about them. I've done that with all 5 of my contests and my 2 interviews.

I can't wait to see who wins your first contest.

100% serious. Getting ARCs makes me feel like a kid at Christmas, and getting one that I'm reasonably sure I'm going to love means that Santa got me that ONE thing I wanted most of all.
