What I Want for the Blog (and Myself) this Year

Brainstorming on things I want for me and the blog and my book reading for the year:

I want more variety in posts. I need to remind myself that there are tons of ideas out there for posts on book blogs and that it's okay to use them!

Maybe even throw in a not book related post, just for insanity and shock! They probably won't be cooking related though!

I want to really make All Lady July great this year. I am encouraged by the great reception it had for it's inaugural last year. I'd love for people to guest post about their favorite female authors, what diversity in books means to them, favorite strong female literary characters, whatever! I'd really like to have a post everyday and make All Lady July the best it can be. If you want in, give me a holler.

I want to learn how to arm knit. I think it looks really fun and I like how the end products look but I'm far less confident in my abilities to follow a youtube tutorial. We shall see!

I have so many half finished craft projects. I need to sit down and evaluate them all and see if some are worth finishing, pillaging for parts or just being done with. It kind of makes me feel like a failure to have so many things half done so I just kind of want to be rid of it.

Here's the tutorial I'm using from Simply Maggie if anyone else wants to learn!

So that's whats on my mind for the new year right now. and also about a thousand other things. What about you?
