I declare this blog officially open

128010935_67ce3d5b33_zWelcome to any new readers and especially to those who have come via my other blog.

Many thanks goes to @naehutch from twitter for the inspired name it was either Bookonaut or Barry (don’t ask).

 

Why another blog?

Because I am a masochist and because I wanted to write more about the books I was reading as part of my writer training program.  I wanted to host more than just book reviews. I wanted to talk about e-readers, e-books, reading, revisiting the classics, all manner of book related stuff that doesn’t fit well into blogging about Skepticism, Atheism, Religion, Secularism.

Hey, there’s stuff here from January?

Yep.  I have ported over some of my reviews from my old blog  and labelled them with roughly the same date as I originally posted them.  You might also find links that go back to the my other blog.

What can we expect?

Well I have outlined what I would like to do on the about page.  I find that blogging (unless part of some corporate or business strategy) is a bit of an organic process –so let’s just say I intend to cover a few different book related topics and have some ideas at this stage for some regular weekly features.

Thanks for reading,

Sean

Congratulations on your new blog! I only wish I had more time for reading for pleasure, but I'm setting up a reading corner in my room now and hoping to devote more time to it soon. I look forward to hearing your thoughts and recommendations.

Thanks Chrys. Perhaps you should dedicate a whole room a library perhaps :) . If I didn't have a restricted internet I probably wouldn't have the time to read
Hi Sean! Welcome to the wonderful world of book blogging!

Oh, and the Barry thing is from the ads right?

Thanks for the welcome. The Barry suggestion came from the wonderful @catherineLd on twitter proprietor of Faster Pussycat productions and a wonderful friend to the feline homeless. I am not sure that she was being totally serious :)
