Spring 2015 Bloggiesta Goals!

 Bloggiesta!
I'm going to be participating in the Spring 2015 Bloggiesta running March 23-29. (YESSSSSS! A whole week to work on STUFF! THIS IS EXCITING!)

What's Bloggiesta? you ask. Excellent question. Allow me to let the fine folks behind this event explain...
In short, Bloggiesta is a blogging marathon revolving around ticking off those items on your to-do list and improving your blog while in the good company of other awesome bloggers doing the same thing. Our awesome mascot Pedro (Plan. Edit. Develop. Review. Organize) is ready to break out the nachos, enchiladas, drinks, mariachi music and whack a pinata or two! It’s nothing short of an awesome fiesta! - (from the Bloggiesta About page - and what a fine page it is!)
I have THINGS I need to get done. Well, I have a few things. Not a ton. YAY to that!

Reading the Paranormal
  • Schedule Top Off Tuesday posts through June (6/2, 6/9, 6/16, 6/23, 6/30)

Bout of Books
  • (subject to Amanda's availability) Add linkies Google docs shizz and other stuff (STUFF!) to drafted posts

Kelly Apple
  • Go through all pages to check for broken links, completed publishing info, etc.
  • Update Extras page
  • Brainstorm blog posts for April
  • Draft newsletters for upcoming releases

TECHNICALLY, I didn't finish the Bout of Books stuff. But BUT Amanda and I joined Asana and put all our remaining tasks into it and gave ourselves due dates. Which is kinda LIKE finishing the tasks, AMIRITE? No? Well, fine. I didn't finish that task. But I did get everything else done plus a few things I didn't know I needed to do. Like update my Kelly Apple FB banner and website banner. Okay, technically, I reverted the website banner back to an old banner, BUT WHATEVER. It's done. I also edited a book this weekend. So, you know, WOOT!

  2. Errr... just realized. Linkies are a no go because we're not close enough to the read-a-thon. They only let you schedule a month in advance.

  6. Smart list, very do-able. One of my goals is to meet as many new bloggers as possible, so I am spending today visiting as many blogs on the sign up as possible. Happy Bloggiesta

    1. To be fair, I rarely know what I'm doing for the WEEK, I just somehow managed to get (and stay) ahead on the blog. LOL.

  9. Oh my. I'm lucky I got Monday's post scheduled the other day. I would love to have my blogs scheduled that far out in advance. I'm sure not having to worry about Tuesday will be nice.
