Since I've been back from BEA and the Book Blogger Convention I have been thinking a bit about what my blog is all about and how to market it. I feel I am pretty successful right now where I stand. I am happy with my following and the sincere and wonderful comments from my lovely fellow bloggers. Sure it would look neat to have 1000s of followers and do lots more stuff but as a SAHM who works a lot during the weekends, I just don't have that time.
What I do want to keep doing is have fun but also show more of me on this blog. Since I've started last July, I said I would review everything I read, regardless of genre. With that I have also explored a lot of genres that I would not normally read and have made some wonderful contacts at new and exciting publishers. I am very grateful for that.
But when it comes down to it, my shelves are piling up and many wonderful books have been waiting for me for...(cough) years to read. So I have decided to read and review only my favorite genres. This will include also what I will be accepting and considering for review from publishers, authors, and publicists.
My favorite genres are:
Literary Fiction
Mystery/Thrillers
and
Memoirs
I will also occasionally read and review some children's and parenting books with the help of my little kiddo. He is now into THUMBS UP so we'll see what he has to say about some of these books.
I have since changed this info on my Contact Page and kind of started to spread that message at BEA and the Book Blogger Convention. I have received a few requests already that fit where I want to go and focus on.
Though I enjoy reading Young Adult and Romance and will continue to read them, I will not be reviewing anymore titles on this blog. There are so many lovely bloggers out there that concentrate and review these genres so well, I'm going to leave it to them!
I hope you all continue to stop by and read what I have to say. I hope my passion for reading and reviewing will continue to come out at Red Headed Book Child.
Happy Reading and as always, thanks for stopping by!
