  • And I’ve hosted the Monthly Wrap-Up Round-Up for four years.
  • I’ve posted a master list of Reading and Book Blogging Challenges for the past four years.
  • I’ve attended three SCBWI (Society of Children’s Book Writers & Illustrators) conferences and one WIFYR (Writing & Illustrating for Young Readers) workshop conference.
  • I’ve attended MANY bookish events, including BEA (twice), ALA, and RT, not to mention all the smaller events and signings I’ve had the privilege of attending.
  • I’ve gotten over 3800 Bloglovin’ followers and over 3000 Twitter followers.
  • I got a little better at Instagram (thanks to some wonderful advice from you guys). I’m also up to over 600 followers there.
  • I’ve edited and/or proofread over 35 books!
  • I’ve written two complete novels (at least up to a first draft) and am working on a third.
    • I finished my MG novel, and managed to land an agent. I’m currently on submission with that book!
    • I finished my first draft of a YA novel (most of it was written during NaNo 2017). I’ve begun revisions but haven’t gotten very far.
    • I’m currently working on a MG novel in verse.
  • I’ve met TONS of amazing people, including YOU!!

To celebrate my blogoversary, I’ve decided to do THREE giveaways, one here on the blog, one on Twitter and one on Instagram.

    Happy Blogoversary! I love your blog and am so happy I found you to share all things bookish. Someday you will sign a book or two (more!) for me. Cheers to many more years of blogging!

      If you want to know a secret, I prefer blogiversary too. It makes more sense to go with anniversary. But somehow when I went to go celebrate my first, I ended up seeing everyone spelling it the other way, and I figured that must be “how it’s spelled.” It wasn’t until much later that I saw some people spelling it with an i, and I was like, “Hey, why didn’t I do that?” By then I already had my birthday and blogoversary calendar and everything, and it would have been way too much work to change all my graphics, etc. So, blogoversary it is for me! 🙂

    Happy Blogoversary!! 7 years is amazing!! I can’t believe it’s been that long! Of course I say the same thing about myself! Sometimes I’m more like it’s only been that long? Lol! I feel like I’ve been blogging forever and it’s something I continue to enjoy by the day!

    Happy blogoversary, Nicole! ❤ I’m amazed (but not at all surprised) looking at everything you’ve accomplished in your 7 years of blogging! As a newer blogger I always love seeing older bloggers take stock of how they’ve grown and what they’ve accomplished. It always inspires me and makes me hopeful for all the things the future has in store!

    SEVEN YEARS that is wonderful, Nicole! Though I just about choked on my water when I saw that we have been hosting the Discussion Challenge for five! FIVE YEARS for real!?! And THEN I realized that I will be celebrating 7 years this year too because Sammy will be 7 in October and then I died and you are talking to a ghost. Where the heck does the time go!? WELL. You have done such an amazing job with your blog, I am SO proud of you!!

    And your writing continues to inspire me- I cannot believe you are doing a book in verse, that has to be one of the scariest things I can think of (well, for me hah) and I am like, beyond impressed and ALSO excited to read it and extra also excited for you to be famous ♥♥

    Happy blogoversary, Nicole, and here’s to many more to come!!

      Your “extra excited for you to be famous” totally made me laugh—I’m sure fame and fortune is just around the corner for me! 🙂

      And, yes, seven years feels like a crazy long time—and then like not long enough as well? In some ways I feel like I’ve been blogging forever!!!

    Congrats on your 7th Blogoversary, Nicole! It’s neat to see your stats and how far you’ve come in seven years! Some neat things for me to learn were how many books you’v edited/proofread and how you’re working on your third novel right now.

    So exciting — congrats!

    I’m really looking forward to your in-verse novel. My students love that sort of book, and it really helps stretch their minds.
