Monday After BEA16:
ideas to implement

First, I’d like to highlight that if you are a newbie at book blogging and mean to be serious at it, you should definitely invest in going next year to BEA, in New York, and especially take part in the BEA Bloggers Conference. Having been book blogging for almost 6 years, I probably didn’t receive as many ideas as younger bloggers, but still, plenty enough to work on now!
Some of the following may be too basic for you, this post is mostly intended for newbies and to myself as a reminder, just in case I lose the notebook where I wrote all these down!! Click to continue reading

Sunday After BEA16

After sharing about my book haul and several book bloggers I was so thrilled to finally meet (alas, I missed many more!), time for a broader picture and for telling you all about the ideas I brought back. Click to continue reading

After BEA16

I was so exhausted after Day 3 at BEA that I was not able to do a post.
And I’m fortunate to live in the suburb, just about 20 mn by train from downtown Chicago. I can’t imagine how others survived, especially if they stayed for BookCon this Saturday, plus a long flight back home. I know there were bloggers from Sri Lanka and Singapore among us!!
But, they are young, I’m not, I start feeling the difference, or rather, my muscles do. This morning when I got up, I could feel the miles in my legs. I walked a bit on the Appalachian Trail last Summer, it was nothing compare to 8 hours or more of walking the long aisles at BEA for 3 days.
Do it while you are young, lol!

I know you can’t wait to see what I brought back.
