Who is this person?
Be that as it may, I decided that I would answer questions (that no one actually asked me). It is kind of like I am talking to myself, but shhh.
So, uh, who are you anyway?
Shannon.
That isn’t very helpful.
Sorry, you really didn’t specify the context. I write the things around here. And I like you for stopping by. Unless you just said “this blog is the worst and this girl is pissing me off”, in which case, I take it back.
Okay, well, what is this blog about?
Books. Bookish things. Anything really random that I have to get out of my head. I guess the two words that are most appropriate are “bookish randomness”. Also shows. You can thank The 100 for that, and for a lot of other things.
What kind of books, specifically?
Adult and YA fiction. Especially speculative fiction, sci-fi, anything apocalyptic or dystopian, and recently I have gotten into horror. The darker the better, except for every so often when one of my favorite romance authors puts out a new book.
Why a book blog, anyway?
I ask you, why not a book blog? Because I like to read, and I like to share opinions, and I like to discuss these things with this amazing community.
(In case you didn’t know, they’re kind of the best.)
What else do you do?
What don’t I do? That sounds a little… pompous, but nah, just busy. I am currently teaching special ed full time/student teaching (yes both at once, it’s weird but it’s fine) and then I take classes at night, and I have two kids, and they have a million things and so I am never, ever bored.
Can you tell me some things you like so I can decide if we are compatible?
I mean, okay, but I am sure we will be. I like The Hunger Games series, The 100 (the show), traveling, which I wish I got to do more of, sleeping (see traveling), swimming (gosh I miss it), spending money I don’t have on books and bookish things, and you know, doing this blogging stuff.
looks great!
Just dropping by to say you have an awesome blog! Cheers!
Hello Shannon! I have been tagged to do The Secret Life of a Book blogger Tag and I am tagging you as well! Here is my post for the questions: https://paperspensandperidot.wordpress.com/2016/02/05/the-secret-life-of-a-book-blogger-tag/
Also, I hope you can be so kind to send me a link of your post (if you make one) so I can read your answers as well!
Hi Shannon. It’s nice to meet you. I found you via Twitter. Your blog is too perfect though. I love the design. I’ll be doing some more snooping around though. =)
“Hi,
I recently browsed through your business listing and wanted to highlight some key points for consideration. I am sure it will complement your-S.E.O.-work to help attract quality visitors and gradually scale high on the search engine result’s page (SERP).
A few changes, aesthetically and/or-S-E-O-wise, can make your site convert more visitors into leads and also get it placed higher in the organic search results, for a few of the select terms.
I will also provide you with a checklist to show you the strengths and weaknesses of your current website.
If you would like to have a no-obligation discussion with me, please reply with your phone number and your Website URL?
Can I call you this week to discuss your campaign?
Best regards,
Maria Smith| Online-Manager
