Where is Genuine Jenn headed this year?

Source

Last month I posted about Genuine Jenn being back and then, gasp.. only a couple book reviews got posted. Why? I'm not 100% sure. I know I wasn't really feeling it when I would get onto my laptop. I figured it had a lot to do with the negatives of the past. I have been purging a lot and I still have a lot more to purge to remove more of the negative memories of my past. I know have a new chrome book and hope to get writing and sharing more, even if it is only a couple times a week. Small steps at first, right?

Book Reviews

Yes, I will still be reading and reviewing books. This is something I love to do but have found that I don't spend as much time reading at the moment. I have a lot of "life things" that I have been working on this past last year. I want to be more present and in the now which has meant less online time. One big goal is to get reviewers back on the blog to help with book reviews. So if you are reading this post and love to read books send me an email or tweet, you may just be who I am looking for to help with Genuine Jenn.

Branching out again

I would really like to branch out with Genuine Jenn. I used to post about products the kids and I were using, foods, toys, movies, etc. I would like to go back there and write about things like that and also everyday life. I am not sure how many of you are interested in whole foods, fitness, healthy living, DIY, gardening etc but I have really started doing more of these things over the last couple years and I would love to share my experience with you. I have also been wanting to get back into my fiction writing. I am hoping this will give me a little push towards it.

What else?

Last week I met with a local author friend to talk about some ideas he had about helping other independent local authors and he wanted my help. I am hoping this will take off this year as I think it is a great idea and can't wait to be part of it. I know I am not going into this because I don't know all the details yet but once I do I will be posting about it for sure. If you are in the Ottawa Ontario area keep an eye out for info!

Until then............
