Fall 2015 Bloggiesta!
From bloggiesta.com: “In short, Bloggiesta is a blogging marathon revolving around ticking off those items on your to-do list and improving your blog while in the good company of other awesome bloggers doing the same thing.” Bloggiesta is hosted by Suey at It’s All About Books and Danielle from There’s A Book.
This Thursday through Sunday, September 17-20, is the Fall 2015 Bloggiesta! I’m excited to be participating again, because I have a lot of blog housekeeping to do! (I actually put off doing some of these things so I could do them during Bloggiesta!)
I plan on updating this post as I go.

Overall, I got a lot done, and had a lot of fun! Thanks so much to the organizers and mini-challenge hosts for such a great event!

September 22, 2015 at 12:11 amYou did wonderfully! I recently updated my own Review Policy page myself and you just reminded me that I should really update the tags on my reviews. Maybe I'll put that down for next time. Great job!
