The second task in the Blog Improvement Project is all about one of the most important things in any blog: CONTENT.
Part One involves reading through the articles linked to in the original post and acquiring some strategies for coming up with ideas. This isn’t overly relevant to me; if I want to create more posts, I have only to read more and participate more. That being said, I like the idea of devising a snappy title and proceeding from there. I think that will be a help when I do non-review posts.
I’m not sure yet what such posts might be, but I will very soon be starting a series relating to one of my 101 Things: Reading the entire Bible. Not out of any religious conviction - I’m a born sceptic - but so that I can say that I have done it and know what I’m rejecting, and to better understand the references to it that often appear in novels, particularly older ones. (Confession time: I still have only a vague notion of just what happened on the road to Damascus. Or who it happened to.) I’m undecided as yet whether I’ll do fortnightly updates, monthly updates, or hallelujah-I-finished-another-book updates, but I am determined to embark on the project with an open mind.

I think the word of the week is a GREAT idea! I love words, too!
I just love your word-in-a-week idea!
Sounds like a good idea. I look forward to participating!
Great idea!
Your apostrophes are coming out as "’" through my feed reader (google reader). Just thought you might like to know!
I'm trying to read the whole Bible this year too. I've tried several times, but I found out that reading it from cover to cover doesn't work for me. I found a reading plan that takes four chunks of scripture a day from four different places in the Bible, which I found to be much easier. I've been a church kid all my life, and reading the Bible like this is really refreshing. Good luck to you!
Elizabeth, Dorte, Cathy, Suey: Thank you! The first WotW will go up on Saturday night.
Christine: Thanks for letting me know - I've now stopped using that particular piece of HTML.
Bookworm: Good luck to you, too! It does seem like a daunting task, but I plan to divide it up into just a few chapters a day and get a routine going.
I'm a little behind in my blog reading, but yes! I love the idea of a word a week.
That's a fantastic idea! It also encourages everyone to check in on each other too! Wonderful!
Word of the week sounds awesome -- I've loved seeing all of the new features too!
