Feature & Follow Friday (4)

Well, hello, my darlings! Wow, I can't believe we're doing our fourth Follow My Book Blog Friday, hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read. Both Lisa and I are putting so much thought and work into The Library, but you guys keep us motivated and we appreciate every one of your visits.

If you still haven't joined this party, you should. The rules for participating are actually very simple. Click on the image to learn more.



This week's 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?

Well, The Nocturnal Library is really just a baby blog, so I would like nothing more than to learn new ways to make it better. It's hard to make those kinds of plans when you're just trying to build something for the first time. What I really want from this blog is the same thing I wanted from day one: to have fun with Lisa and to have a place that feels like home. That much we've already achieved.

Have a great Friday, guys! Thanks for stopping by.

    Aww, I've been here in the blogging world for only 2 months and I can honestly say that everyone was very welcoming and supporting. I made new friends(like you! *hug*) and it feels like home already. :)

    Thanks for stopping by my blog, Maja! :) Hoping you'll have a great blogging year ahead of you!

    I totally agree. I have the same ambitions for my blog. I never realized when I started blogging how much of my time it would take up, but I have found myself LOVING every moment of it, so there are no complaints. I simply want to keep bringing good reviews (of the books I love to read) to people and bring the love of books to everyone that my blog can reach. =D Old follower.

    The best source of info I have found for ideas on improving book blogs is Parajunkee's Book Blogging 101. She has answered so many questions that I have had--things that pop up as I get more and more into blogging. :)

    Thanks for following my blog. I've returned the favor. About giveaways. I've discovered something called Rafflecopter. It seems like it's going to make my giveaways much easier to manage. At least I hope!

    Hey Maja!!! What? This is a baby blog? I don't think it is - I think it's great and so doesn't look like it's brand spanking new! You totally look like you've been doing this forever!!

    Have a wonderful and safe New Year's!!! Thx for visiting me today!!!

    I agree that this doesn't seem to be a baby blog ^_~ Blogs tend to be living and breathing things in and of themselves. They continue growing and shaping, so I see an awesome future for this "baby" blog ^_^
