Reading and Blogging: June 2011

Thursday, June 30, 2011

On May 31, I challenged myself to write a blog post here every single day for the month of June. Well, it's the end of the month now (can you believe it?!) and I think I did it well. I have to admit, while it was sometimes challenging to come up with blog posts for everyday, I actually had a lot of fun. I felt like a responsible blogger for once, haha, and it was nice to hear from you everyday.

So for June, I wrote 34 (counting this one!) blog posts. And for the most part, they were mostly book reviews and reading-related discussions. I also was able to read 8 1/2 books!

  1. Well done babe :-) You did a great job and I love that you read lots of Dean K, cool.

    My goal was to respond to your post everyday, I did well and made it to your Top Commentators list so high five to us.

  2. Congrats, Jillian! I've to admit that I'm a pretty bad blogger cause mostly I only post whenever I feel like posting (which is not that often :P). Seriously need to change this habit and I think I need to challenge myself the way you did!

  4. Marce - Thank you so much for helping out with the challenge! I appreciate all your visits and comments :D

    Shy - Thank you! Just make sure when you challenge yourself you have fun too because you might end up hating posting after the end of the month haha :)

    Pecpa - 21 is good!! Last year, there were a few months when I only posted about 10. Now that;s a shame!
