The Things You Can Read: Book Blogger Appreciation Week-Day 5: Saying Goodbye for Another Year

The Things You Can Read welcomes you and thanks you for your readership. We, here at The Things You Can Read, ask your help, if you visit our site regularly, please follow us either via email or Google Friend Connect. Launched on June 7, 2012, our site has already attracted a great deal of attention. One of the goals of the site is to feature reviews of Children's Picture Books, Young Adult novels and Adult Literary Fiction/Nonfiction. A second goal for the blog is to be a resource for teachers of English and writing--with examples of student created writing, writing tips, resource links, and the opportunity to pick the brain of a seasoned English teacher. To spice things up...every now and then, we'll also include random quotes and thoughts on education and life in general, but our ultimate goal is to reach out into the blogosphere and be a "Book Whisperer" and "Writing Whisperer" to children and adults of all ages. Thank you for your readership. Here is to a lifetime filled with reading and writing.

Book Blogger Appreciation Week-Day 5: Saying Goodbye for Another Year

Book Blogger Appreciation Week-Day 5:

Saying Goodbye for Another Year

Jane Austen
The thing that I will take into the future is the Classics Club

September 10 -14, 2012 is Book Blogger Appreciation Week, so welcome to Day 5 of Book Blogger Appreciation Week. Unfortunately, Day 5 is the final day. On this, the final day of Book Blogger Appreciation Week, bloggers are asked to consider the following:…what did you get out of this week? What will you take with you in the future?

What did I get out of this week? Well, I found a number of great blogs that I had never visited before. I'm still slowly maneuvering through the list of participants. As I visit each blog, I am in awe of the talented bloggers out there in the blogosphere, and hope that I have the stamina to keep blogging as long as some of the veteran bloggers out there. More importantly, the quality of the blogs is inspiring. Again, I only hope that I can continue to write quality posts that have value to my readership over the long haul. What I don't want is for The Things You Can Read to be a flash in the pan. Seeing what others have achieved, offers me hope and insight as my blog moves forward. Book Blogger Appreciation Week may end today, but I'll be visiting participating blogs well into October.

The thing that I will take into the future is the Classics Club, which I've recently joined. The blogs goal is to, “unite those of us who like to blog about classic literature, as well as to inspire people to make the classics an integral part of life.” I love this idea. Bravo to the founders! I know this new find will enrich my life in the coming months, and I look forward to adding my voice to the Classics Club.

Classics Club

I hope our readership at The Things You Can Read has enjoyed Book Blogger Appreciation Week. Please look for our participation next year. As always, we look forward to your comments regarding BBAW 2012!

Happy Blogger Appreciation Week!
