Fan Month Linkup: A Declaration of Fanship

Heya! So sorry this post is late! Where I live, we got out first snow of the season this week, so I had a couple of snow days, which means I got lazy and it was difficult to get back into my normal schedule. :p Again, I apologize, and shall endeavor to do better in the future.

But, uh, nobody’s perfect so please don’t hold me to that. ;)

Anywho, to the point of the post...

I found this really cool idea on Sometimes I’m a Story: basically, the purpose of the linkup is for each participant to make time to be a fan. It doesn’t have to literally be the whole month; you just pick some time when you know you can stop concentrating on your own stuff and be a fan of somebody else. It sounded like fun (and I’m really behind on my blog readerships) so I decided to give it a go.

Now for the questions!

1. When do you plan on being a fan?

I have decided to be ambitious and do the fan thing for the first two weeks of March. Maybe longer depending on how things go. So woo-hoo for me! This should be interesting...

2. What goals will you set for yourself?

Hmm, since this is my first time, I’m gonna start slow: I shall visit at least 10 blogs next month and comment on every post I read. Something more than a simple “Great post,” too (which isn’t bad by the way, if you want to leave that on some of mine ;) ). But I want to comment a little more, something that could start a conversation with other bloggers, and really show that I’m, well, being a fan.

3. Are you going to set any rules for yourself? Exceptions to those rules?

Bleh, rules schmules. All the same, they might be helpful...

Well, I did already say that I’m going to comment on every post I read. So that’s rule number one. Rule number two, during those weeks, I won’t do any new posts on this blog (though I will keep doing reviews at Verbosity if you honestly miss me that much ;) ).

4. Where do you plan on sharing the great posts you read?

Here, actually. So that my blog won’t look completely dead, I shall pick my favorite blog post of each day and share the links to them once a week.

5. Where could you be a fan outside the blogosphere?

Uh... Not sure actually. Does fanfiction.net count?

Well, that’s it people! You’ll still get next week’s posts, the Melodic Monday and (hopefully) Thoughtful Thursday, but after that I’m out for a while. *tips hat in farewell*

What about you? Are you gonna take part in fan month? If you’re thinking about it, you can check out Heather’s post here, and become a part of the linkup.

Oh, and random note: this is my 100th blog post! So yippee! Shocking that I’ve made it this far, no? Couldn’t have done it without you guys sticking with me! :)

Ciao till next week!
