If you haven’t noticed I have been gone for a while. Recently my mind has been too focused on other things going on in my life for me to both blog and enjoy blogging. During my time away from blogging I had time to think about what I am doing here on this blog, and I’ve decided to make the following changes:
- I have gotten rid of the recommendations page on my blog. This is because I can’t read as much as before due to poor concentration, and the thought of adding extras books to read to my already mountainous pile makes ready even more daunting.
- I am dropping my Top Ten Tuesday posts and my Sunday Comforts ones. This is just so there is less pressure for me to blog.
- I have started a new blog! I needed somewhere to write my thoughts and feelings on different aspects of my life, but I didn’t want to do it here. So I created One Tea at a Time where I will talk about things that are important to me (other than books), such as mental health, cruelty free beauty, and my monthly favourites will be moved to there too. This also means that from now on Caffeine and Books will just be about books.
Thank you so much for all the support you have given me. I have never received a hurtful or mean comment here, only supportive and wonderful ones, and that fact alone made me want to continue blogging so I could continue talking to you amazing people.
I will now try to blog more and get back into it, but it’s probably going to be a long time until I am fully back into it. I just hope you’ll still be here when I am.
Blogging should never become an annoying responsibility or pressure, so I totally get you wanting to cut down a little. I wish you all the best for the next year and now excuse me while I check out your other blog 😀
