I would like to be able to update a post with info without needing to redo the whole thing.
So like in the case of the post I just moved In The Bed of a Duke, I would like to add reviews to the bottom as they happen. Mainly because I like the pictures but don’t want to have to keep reposting them.
1. My question to you guys is, does this fuck anything up on your end? I have been doing it over the last few days and no one has mentioned it being a pain in their ass. Like with the bloglines type stuff, I ask because someone said they were having issue and reloading a page a few types and was sorry to the RSS feed people. I wasn’t sure what they were sorry for ;). So I wanted to make sure no one was silently suffering for my laziness.
2. I turned off the pop up comments a while ago because I didn’t see a need to have to wait for a box to pop up to comment. And it wasn’t until Karen mentioned it today that I thought about the fact that I do post a lot of question type posts and pop up boxes might be useful.
Of course if this doesn’t work out for you, let me know. I won’t be able to make everyone happy and well it can’t annoy me ;). But if I don’t have issue with it and it makes it easier on the person commenting or viewing or whatever. Let me know.
3. I really wish I could do tags but I don’t think that is a blogger thing. I have noticed people using technorati tags. Is that easy to sign up for? And does it cost? Cuz I bes cheap.
I want to focus on reviews (duh), upcoming romance novels (as in a list), MY personal want list, romance lines, and posts of books (one per post) that I want and will most likely review.
A. I also need to figure out how to update my index of reviews, which I will put links to all reviews – if they are AAR Reviews they will just go to AAR and decision of an AAR Review should go to the AAR Review Message Board.
B. And would like to do a reader blog post and a author blog post where one link would show on the sideboard but open to a post with lots. Not sure what is the best way to go about this.
I am also playing with a promo day for series/category books. Like every Wednesday I would post a series/category of any type Desire, Blaze, HH whatever that I am interested in, another reader emails in, or the author sends. Would it up sales? Probably not but hey it is free and it makes me sad that AAR had such a hard time getting votes for category romances.
LOL which of course that idea lead to I should do the same for ebooks because they are popular but not always known authors or even publishers.
But those last two are ideas I am still thinking of… and of course if you email me with a heads up about your book or a book your favorite author is coming out with, I might read it and review it. And I am not saying that will always be a good review – just honest, fair and my own opinion.
Yes I put too much thought into my blog and no I don’t want to be a writer. But I want to get whatever I want to do set into place so it is easy for me to do. Since I also need to get a job.
