Hey, gang! *taps mic* Is this thing on?
I just wanted to swing by and give an update on what’s been going on with me personally. I recently got a new job, and it has been such a great new experience! For those of you that know me personally, my previous job that was really taxing and I was being treated really unfairly. These working conditions took a toll on my anxiety and started to affect me physically. Now, I am in a much better situation and finally teaching English! Yay!
I have been blogging for a little over 5 months now (wow!) and it is my favorite thing to do. I am so thankful for the community that I have been introduced to and what I’ve wanted for so long was to just talk to a bunch of great people about the cool books I read, and with this blog I have that and I am so grateful!
Most people don’t know this, but I do write my blog posts way in advance. I post about twice a week (a book review and a blog post), and I normally have about 10+ posts in my Scheduled Posts tab — so pretty much everything I post was written a month prior. I kept a steady writing schedule so there was never a gap in my posts, or any indication showing that I was writing so far in advance.
With that being said, now that I have a new job, my responsibilities have pretty much quadrupled, and my commute also takes a lot of my time. I have about 4 posts in my Scheduled Posts tab, because I have not been writing as much anymore. I love blogging but I think in order to keep a balance with work and reading, I am going to only post once a week now. I think that will help me feel less pressured to get content out at a certain time.
This is not a hiatus, but just a notice that I will have a little less content out for now. Once things get a little less hectic in my personal life, I will be back to writing as much as possible!
I’m thinking about posting on either Mondays or Thursdays (I kind of want to bypass all the Top Ten Tuesday/Top 5 Wednesday Tags) but let me know in the comments when would be the best time to see posts from me!
In the meantime, you can also add me as a friend on Goodreads or follow me on Instagram! I will definitely be a little more active on those platforms!
You guys are the best of the best! Thank you for all the support! I have a post coming later this week and then I’ll start the once a week schedule! See ya then!
