Bloggers Who Answered my 6 ?'s in August


Back in August, I asked 6 questions about why people read blogs, what they do with the books they might win on blogs, etc. (The rose is for each of the bloggers who left comments.)

Several bloggers shared their ideas and I'd like to reciprocate by posting their blogs in my Blogroll and also introducing them today.

1-First is Hannah who often posts comments on my blog. Thanks, Hannah!
"Project Journal" blog

Description
Hi! Just the ramblings of a college freshman about books, movies, and life! Thanks for visiting! Happy reading!

Hannah, I found your blog too dark to read easily. Please lighten up the text!

2-Next Janet with her JKW Art Blog

Description: God, family, and friends are most important. Starting a new life alone is difficult. Wild art dolls are a new challenge that I look forward to. I enjoy the retirement stage meeting new people and volunteering/sewing for abused children and veterans.

Janet, I had never heard of Cloth Doll Artistry and your use as a mission or benevolence to others. So wonderful and unique! WOW!

3-Next is Jenny from the Missouri Ozarks, United States and her My Buckling Bookshelf Blog.

Jenny participates in the Christian Fiction Blog Alliance
These are reviewers who receive Christian novels and blog about them.

So want some good recommendations of what to read next, drop by

4-Our final blog for today (I've got about 10 more to share soon!)
AusJenny, a fun lady I met first on GoodReads as part of the Love Inspired Historical Group there. You might want to join us. We have a wide-ranging discussion from Dancing with the Stars to book giveaways to prayer requests.

Jenny who is from Australia also participates in the Christian Fiction Blog Alliance, but posts reviews that bear her own particular take on each book.

So drop by
Come Meet Aus Jenny--she's fun and very real!

A Question for You: Why Do Authors and Publishers

giveaway books on blogs? ????????????
That's question # 1-


I usually do most of the talking here. Most of you read and post occasionally. But this time I want you to do the writing.

More questions for you:

2-Have you won a book on a blog?
3-If you did, what did you do with that book?

4-Do you only visit blogs that give books away regularly?
5-Or are there some blogs you visit or read often? If so, why?

6-Please list any blogs you especially enjoy and visit often. Please give their URL or Web address so others may enjoy them. Have you ever visited any of the blogs I post in the right column?

7- Do you have a blog? If so, what is it about and please include your URL.

I know a lot of you are busy, but please share your thoughts and experiences. I'll have a drawing among those who reply with a real answer. I'll keep you guessing about what the prize will be. :-)

BTW, I've just updated my website. If you haven't visited, drop by and let me know what you think.

OKAY-start talking!--Lyn
PS-This drawing will be open for comments through Sunday night August 29, 2010!
