New Year, New Blog



The Bodacious Pen as it once was, will be no more. Ooh, that sounds dramatic, doesn't it? What I really mean:

  • I won't be posting many review posts. This is for two reasons. First: I really don't enjoy it anymore. Second: this year I want to focus more on writing and less on reviewing. I will occasionally post reviews of books I love, or the very few I will accept for review. I do believe that aspiring authors can still review books, but I just don't have the time or the desire to do so anymore.
  • I'm phasing out my Visual Inspiration feature. If you're interested in seeing more of my finds, please feel free to friend me at Pinterest.
  • I won't be posting that much anymore. I'm making it a goal to post three times a week, with at least one of those posts being original content, not a meme. I still love this blog, but I've got to keep my focus on my writing if I want to hopefully land an agent in the next few months to a year.

So, if  you no longer wish to follow my blog, I won't be offended in the least. I hope if you're an aspiring author, you'll stick around!

  1. I say GOOD FOR YOU! Many of us are re-prioritizing this year. Making it more about the writing and less about the blogging or blog reading.

    Here's to happier writing!

  3. I think we're all scaling back a bit. Blogging is fun, but blogging about the novel isn't going to get the novel written. I'm keeping you on my RSS, Tara. I look forward to your posts whenever you post. :)
