My experience #bookblogging as a newbie
Wow, from the moment I first started this blog I had no idea that I could fall in love even more with reading but yes it is possible. I discovered this wonderful world of book blogging via Twitter, Blogger, Wordpress, Goodreads and discovered #booktubers on Youtube. The world of #bookblogging has its own terms, veterans, events ect. I have been learning all the things that are involved in book blogging and have to admit that it has been intimidating to learn all about book tours, book cover reveals and so many things that come with it.
I have discovered amazing blogs from average people who like me love reading and are passionate about what they are doing. I won't lie and say that visiting some of these blogs has been intimidating since they have been around longer and usually have a long list of loyal fans following every post they make. However on Twitter I have kept coming across one very important idea that every blogger should know:
This is not a competition, there is enough space for all of us.
I'm taking that little saying to heart and know that I can only learn more about others whether it be about posts, book review style, or blogging overall. What I love about most is that everyone has their own unique style of blogging which represents just how different all of us readers really are. Some of us are going to like something completely different than others and we are all going to find a certain blogger we can relate to. What fun would it be if everyone is the same? The same applies to blogging.
As a newbie I've learned that there are so many different ways you can blog about a book, author, tour ect. While I'm still learning about doing all of this I'm so excited for the challenge of discovering even more things when it comes to reading. We are all a community of book lovers and we truly can all help each other if we lend a hand and help the next fellow blogger.
I won't pretend like I know what I'm doing half the time I will continue to go with my gut feeling and write what I want to at the time. There are no rules in book blogging you write what your heart feels like letting out and hope others will enjoy your content as much as you enjoyed writing it.
To all the wonderful people that have contacted me or I've met through this community I send a very big and warm hug as well as a big thank you! You make this little hobby a wonderful past time!
Much love
