just an idea ,i m kicking about .How many times have you read a book and thought that was great but don’t want read that writer again but i d like something else like that ,but not known where to start ?,or heard about Scandinavian crime fiction and don ‘t know where to start or have tried one and not like it for a reason .Well wouldn’t a clinic be great a place where you can ask for ideas about where to start and where to move on to .Twitter is great for this but there is such a wealth of bloggers out there with such varied tastes .I think this would be a great way of discovering new bloggers and crossing those genre barriers .Now i m a newish blogger and know i don’t get many people but wondered if people wanted to go with this as an idea ,maybe once a month on a different blog and everyone helps if they can suggest ideas . I d love to admit this was my idea but have borrowed it from a british radio show .
I like it, Stu. A book clinic sounds cool. Do you mean that it would be hosted on a different bloggers blog every month and people can go on and either ask for recommendations or suggest books? Cool. I’m in!
yes ,i got a lot of help via twitter for my world book challenge as i wasn’t blogging a lot from stewart at booklit and rob at the fiction desk ,we all read slightly different books and i think be great for when your stuck where to start or move from a new writer you ve read and would love something similar
I think this is a fantastic idea! I really like the way you are planning to utilise people with specialist knowledge.
thanks jackie i thought so
