Buccaneer Blogfest: Week Four, Twelve Eleven

 

I'm here with the final day of the month long Buccaneer Blogfest hosted by Sharon Bayliss and Courtney Young.

Thank everyone who commented on Wednesday's post, and good luck to all those who entered the giveaway. As a reminder, it will run from 1^st August until 29^th August.

Aug 3: Reflection post: Share your experience from this blogfest. What are the next steps you want to take with your blog?

I signed up for the Buccaneer Blogfest for a few reasons; to make new friends in the blogosphere, to read new posts and gain new insights into writing and blogging, and also to raise my blogging profile and gain more interest in my writing.

I feel like I've accomplished all this and so much more. I've met so many excellent people, and forged deeper connections with people I already followed. I've broadened my horizons both in terms of blogging content and who I visit, and also what I read. I've received some really encouraging feedback and support on my work.

Some highlights for me where both my interview of Pineapple Lightning's Brighton Luke (Pineapple) and Utsav Mukherjee (Lightning) and Aldrea Alien's interview of me over at Thardrandian Thoughts. As well as sharing some of Sibylline Nights with you all, and the feedback I got from it. 

I can't thank you all enough for the support you've given me this last month. Everyone who has stopped by my blog and commented, I really appreciate the interest you've shown in me. And thank you to Sharon Bayliss and Courtney Young for doing such a superb job hosting this wonderful event.

Going forwards, I am going to continue blogging (probably less now this fest is over, about once a week, once NaNo is over), and carry on working on both Sibylline Nights, and my new project, my Camp NaNo 2012 novel. 

I hope I continue to get to know the new friends I've made through their blogs, and I wish everyone success in their future endeavours.
