Feature & Follow #31

Welcome to the Feature & Follow

Gain new followers and make new friends with the Book Blogger Feature & Follow! If this is your first time here, welcome! You are about to make some new friends and gain new followers — but you have to know — the point of this hop is to follow other bloggers also. I follow you, you follow me.

If you are new to the #FF fun, Feature & Follow Friday is a blog hop that expands your blog following by a joint effort between bloggers. Feature & Follow Friday is now hosted by TWO hosts, Parajunkee and Alison of Alison Can Read. Each host will have their own Feature Blog and this way it’ll allow us to show off more new blogs!

How does this work? First you leave your name here on this post, then you create a post on your own blog that links back to this post (easiest way is to just grab the code under the #FF picture and put it in your post) and then you visit as many blogs as you can and tell them “hi” in their comments (on the post that has the #FF image). You follow them, they follow you. Win. Win. Just make sure to follow back if someone follows you!

Now to make this #FF interesting we do a FEATURE blogger. If you are interested in becoming a Feature click on the drop down link above FEATURES > Feature & Follow Friday and get on the waiting list! How do you follow someone? Well, if you have a preference, state it in your #FF post. A lot of blogs are transitioning to WordPress in which they do not have the luxury of GFC, so an RSS subscription is appreciated or if you choose an email subscription. If you don’t have GFC please state in your post how you would like to be followed.It is also required, that if you participate you must follow the hosts (Parajunkee & Alison Can Read) and the two Feature blogs.

Parajunkee's Feature – Chayse @ The Book Reaper

Alison Can Read's Feature - Ed and Ems Reviews

And now the Random Question of this week:

What blogger inspires you? It can be any kind, it doesn't have to be a book blog. ?

There are SOOOOO many of you that do, but don't know it.. But I'll give a few who inspire me. Parajunkee (Rachel) does for a multitude of them (she designed original look for the blog). Alison does because of her Manga Monday (I read them too!) I get inspired by DJ Librarian. I get inspired by all of you and your dedication to blogging and sharing books with the rest of the community. I have a LOT of room to grow and I hope to continue to do so.

    1. Hello BLH Mistress. Welcome to PbP! Yes, Rachel is a very helpful blogger, not to mention she's been around as a blogger for about 2.5 years now. She was very helpful in teaching some blogger etiquette to many of us.

    1. HI Brunette Librarian. Welcome to PbP!

      I feel like I am popular among librarians. Your blog is very cute! I've never seen some of your inspirational blogs before. The "Cute" one screams it in a good way. :-) Thanks for coming by!

    1. Hi Emily welcome to PbP!

      There is such a huge community. There is a directory where many of us are listed so you are sure to find a new blog to inspire there too. The FF is also a fun way to meet other bloggers and see your "regulars" drop in too.

      Thanks for sharing!

  7. Sooo. I'm running out of original things to say. Well, it is 4 am over here in Cali part. That's my excuse. But, for some foggy reason, I can't reach for now. I like your blog! Followed!

    My FF

    Oh. Right. I like the poison theme. And your voice.

    That's all I can think of now. Happy Friday!

    1. HI Kim!

      Thank you! I'm planning on doing an overhaul sometime soon. Going to the "Dark side". I try to bring out my voice in my blog, as with most of us it is a reflection (or should it be an extension) of ourselves.

      Thanks for stopping by!
