Armchair BEA: Introductions First


Welcome to my first post of Armchair BEA 2012. Apologies for the slightly late start- Jubilee events here in the UK have rather sucked up my blogging time so far.

So, I little about myself:
Q. Please tell us a little bit about yourself: Who are you? How long have you been blogging? Why did you get into blogging?
A. Hi! My name is Abigail and I'm a blogger, but first and foremost I am a reader. An electic reader (and a musician as well)! I've been blogging for about 2 years now. I started blogging because I wanted somewhere to share reviews of the books I'd read with other people. 

Q. Where do you see your blog in five years?
A. Hopefully with an even bigger following, more author interviews, and more reviews of self-published UK books. I'd hope to have sorted myself out so that I can post every day consistently and maybe be hosting a meme or two as well. I'd also like to have some cool new graphics.

Q. Which is your favourite post that you have written that you want everyone to read?
A. How Books Can Grow on Trees- I think it summarises all the best things about BookCrossing, and shows my more creative side. 

Q. If you could eat dinner with any author or character, who would it be and why?
A. I'd like to have dinner with Rincewind from the Discworld series, because anything might happen!

Q. Which literary location would you most like to visit. Why?
A. I'd love to go to New Zealand and visit all the places that they used for the LOTR movies just because they look so stunning. Does this count as literary?


Thanks for reading my replies. 
If you have any other questions you'd like to ask me, feel free to leave them in the comments.

Also, if you leave a link to your own post then I'll try to visit asap.

Thanks, I'll definatly try to have fun!

I don't know many people who specialize in self-pubbed book reviews. Interesting niche!

(And LOTR sites in New Zealand counts as literary to me.)

It's a slow start (especially since I don't read e-books) but I'm hoping to make it my niche eventually

I hope you have a wonderful Armchair BEA week, and that you do get to travel to New Zealand to visit the LOTR set (the shire).

Not sure it'll ever really happen, but one can dream

Oh, yes, New Zealand. I saw a documentary about it the other day and it's so stunning. I'd love to go there too.

Good luck with expanding your blog further!

Doesn't it! And I'm glad it counts as literary, I wasn't really sure!

Not participating in the Armchair BEA, but reading all of the posts has been fun. It's always great learning a bit more about fellow book bloggers.

I totally agree- its lovely to know more about everyone you brush past online.

Pleased to meet you Abigail !
and to find out these snippets of you and your interests ! we've both been blogging about the same time so that's in common as well as the love of reading :)

Great to hear. It's always lovely to come across a new blogger, especially one who started at about the same time.
My recent post Armchair BEA: The Schedule
Always wanted to go to New Zealand too. I've been to Australia, but not sure why I didn't hop over to NZ while I was there. *sigh*
1 reply · active 668 weeks ago
I'm in a similar position there. When I went to Australia I didn't really know how amazing New Zealand was, so didn't even consider popping over there.
