Well, I have considered starting a book review blog. One that showcases the reviews I do for other authors. Of course, there are TONS already out there, and quite a few that I follow. I can't imagine it being a bad idea, just because it's even more publicity for authors. I wonder if it will take from my writing?
I've been in a funk for the past week and have read 5 or 6 books, but haven't touched a single story of my own. I seem to have yearned to escape real life for a bit. Thankfully, Spring has Sprung here in NJ (finally!!) so the nice weather will surely boost my spirits a bit.
Anyway, I did start the blog, but am not sure where to go from here. So, I am thinking of keeping it low-key, sharing some of the reviews of my favorites from Kindle (I've done a few hundred reviews there) and see where it takes me.
I figure, at the very least...it will keep these fingers moving and this brain creatively thinking. That HAS to be good, right? :)
I will share more when I can. I'm hoping to get a great blog going in between my own stories.
Happy Reading!

I review occasionally on my own blog...and only good reviews, but I find my brain gets clogged from the stuff I read and a review is a good way of getting it out! LOL I don't *think* it takes away from my writing but then I do spent most of Sunday afternoon preparing my blog for the week so I suppose it must do. But sometimes we need a break from writing, I think, as hard as it is to stop!
