The Secret Life of a Book Blogger Tag. #BookBlogger #BookBloggers

I saw this tag over at Always Trust in Books, thought it would be fun and decided to give it ago.

How long have you been blogging?

I started blogging in the womb. I gave life a negative review before it had even truly begun.😂

At what point do you think you’ll stop blogging?

When the ARC’s dry up, when the women (blogubines, bloupies and blogstitutes) get old, dusty and crusty (I guess you might say guess they dry up too) and when I have made enough money to retire with.

What is the best thing about blogging?

Those sweet sweet ARC’s. The money, the women (blogubines, bloupies and blogstitutes) and random review requests from authors. I mean, it’s like sticking your hand in a bag of pick n mix or, the surprise in a Kinder egg as that request could be anything and until you open it you just don’t know, talk about a thrill!

What is the worst thing? what do you do to make it okay?

Bloggers! Erm…I kill them all!

How long does it take you to make/find pictures to use?

10,512,069 seconds.

Who is your book crush?

Yennefer of Vengerberg from The Witcher series by Andrzej Sapkowski.

What author would you like to have on your blog?

The creator of the Tingler, Chuck Tingle.

What do you wear when you write your blog posts?

Either an adult diaper or if you prefer, a man nappy.

Or, I blog in my birthday suit, as nature intended, letting it all hang out.

Or, I dress up as a Nun as everything I write is so pure and holy.

How long does it take you to prepare?

Prepare?? Oh, you mean foreplay!👍 Blogplay??😂 I dunno, it depends on the women book.

How do you feel about the blogging community?

I hate it! I’m sorry, I’m not really but I’ve got to keep up polite appearances. Honestly, you all suck! You suck more than a vacuum cleaner on the super suction setting!

What do you think one should do to create a successful blog?

Listen up grasshopper, the way to success is simple. Eat your vitamins and say your prayers.😂

Nah, charge for reviews and steal other bloggers posts.

Oh, also, oversell your blog too (follower counts, page views, embellish all of that sort of stuff) and sell the shit out of it like Shawn Michaels overselling against Hulk Hogan.😂

OK, you have had the fun answers to the questions. Now, here are the boring and serious answers…be warned you might fall asleep!

How long have you been blogging?

I started blogging on March 5th, 2016. So, that is around three-and-a-half years now.

At what point do you think you’ll stop blogging?

When I lose my smile, when I can’t get it back and when I completely lose the enjoyment.

What is the best thing about blogging?

Simply, having a blog and having somewhere to share my thoughts.

What is the worst thing? what do you do to make it okay?

The self-doubt regarding the quality of my reviews. How do I make it OK?? Erm…I don’t! I always doubt what I write and probably always will.

How long does it take you to make/find pictures to use?

Have you seen my book pictures?! The answer is not very long!

Who is your book crush?

I don’t have one.

What author would you like to have on your blog?

George R.R Martin or Stephen King would be really cool but I know it will never happen.

What do you wear when you write your blog posts?

Clothes! My usual attire is the scruffy hobo look so, jeans and a t-shirt.

How long does it take you to prepare?

Days or weeks. I write notes whilst I read the book then type those notes up sometime after finishing and then I have to write the actual review. Sometimes it all gets done quickly, other times, not so much as I’d rather read than write reviews. For blog posts? It depends too. What can I say, I’m a mood reader and a mood blogger!

What do you think one should do to create a successful blog?

People define success in different ways. For me, I’d say it is your blog, your rules and there is no right or wrong way to blog. So, rather than worrying about being successful I’d say just focus on being yourself.
