Unfortunately, with kids, school, work, family....I just cant keep up with it anymore. This blog has been a huge part of my life for 3 years and while I love it like chocolate cake at a birthday, its time to slow down.
Instead of posting 5 or 6 days a week (that's too much for me) my goal is to post once or twice a week with reviews and have occasional author guest stops/touring. Ill also be running my remaining Saturday Spotlight commitments until 2013.
Hopefully slowing a bit will help me remember why I started.......reading.
Good for you sweetie!

I've had to do the same.
I post when I can and try to do at least one a week. It works for me.
Bravo deary!
Yeah...I think it will take the pressure off and the overwhelming guilt I feel when I have to look at my review pile......
DeleteHugs and totally understand where you are coming from too. I too have been feeling like that too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Julie, I love the blog, but mama has to slow down....:D
DeleteI'm glad you'll still be around even a few days a week.
ReplyDeleteI've been headed in this direction myself. I only post if I have something to say. I'm having a lot more fun blogging and reading now because of it. I hope that's how it turns out for you as well :-)
I think it will, just deciding to do has already de-stressed me...:)
DeleteMakes total sense to me! I've had to drastically cut back since the school year started and will honor the commitments I've made but am constantly re-evaluating things in terms of moving forward. All we can do is do our best and have fun!
ReplyDeleteGreat point Emily! Blogging is supposed to be fun! It shouldn't be a job! :)
DeleteYES. And I want to have doing this, not feel like a piece of poo cause I cant whip out 6 reviews a week.....
