While I mentioned this in passing in my last Roundup&Ramblings post, I figured I’d better do a separate post so there wasn’t any confusion.
In January I completed Phase One of my Blog Construction Plans. As such, now I am moving into Phase Two, which is a much bigger undertaking and more intrusive, IF you happen to get emails from me. As I will be creating new posts for each review that I formerly lumped together in monthly posts, even though they are backdated, WordPress still considers them new posts and sends them to everyone on the email list.
This is just a fair warning post to let you know that while I’ve toyed around with this Phase Two, I am hoping to really start things in earnest next month. So be advised you could be getting an additional 5-20 posts emailed to you each month.
That is all.
Good luck with the upcoming work! I hate any kind of technical upheaval as I get stressed with it! Hope it all goes well.

Thanks Chuckles. I don’t mind this kind of work, I just have to be aware that it takes away from my store of words and so if I do too much on this project, my current reviews and posts might suffer 😀
Thank goodness spring is almost here…

5-20 e-mails a month? Compared to what I filter through every day at work, that’s nothing. I can take it! 😉 Good luck with Phase Two.

Surprisingly, I get very few emails from the trees I cut down 😉
I’ve just had a couple of times where people comment on one of the old “reviews” with something like “is this a review?” because I was only doing title author and genre to start things off.

LOL, if at any point the trees do start to e-mail you, I hope you’ll make a blog post to let us know what they have to say!

Right, like I’d give everyone more evidence that I need to be committed to the loony bin 😀
Of course, now I’m thinking about Tolkien and the Ents. I think I have a Tolkien re-read coming up later this year. maybe I’ll remember this little conversation and do a one on one blog post with an Ent. or something…

Yeah, after your comment AND Brokentunes, I figure there might be some others in the same boat but just not willing to say anything. Since I’d appreciate a heads up in a similar situation, I’d figure I’d just make a post of it 😀

No worries on it overwhelming me. I’m taking it nice and slow and am doing just when I feel like instead of regimented. Probably take about twice as long, but no burn out means I’ll finish it instead of giving up 😀

I like being notified of things so the least I can do is return the favor. Plus, I don’t know who follows me just through the feed and who gets email & feed…

Hopefully the whole cataloging will be rewarding in the end. Do you also update Caliber or whatever other programs you use or does this strictly only influence WordPress? 😀

Calibre is already fully updated. This is just a wordpress thing to get it all pretty and search-able 🙂
