I was just telling my son last night (his last day of school was yesterday) that I wanted us to go more places in our area this summer and explore! We live in the San Francisco Bay Area and people come here from all over the world so we need to get out and about and see some things ourselves.Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01739982274914536036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-55579694929962901852010-06-01T13:36:17.279-05:002010-06-01T13:36:17.279-05:00This is a super post, Molly, and a great idea.

I like reading personal content on blogs...and would love to hear about your travels since I also like to travel and hope to do more in the coming years.

I am so glad the Armchair BEA helped most of us learn a lot of things through everyone's posts. I've already seen so many others (even non-participants) talk about some thing they now plan to do after reading some of our posts, and that is a really really awesome thing!Athirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03366654538383603004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-85116974600792310512010-05-30T18:23:23.630-05:002010-05-30T18:23:23.630-05:00I love your description of the flat and round char...I love your description of the flat and round characters!!! That makes so much sense. Personally, I love hearing about how you teach your students ... I learn so much from it.

Of course, you might have been too young then. :-)<br /><br />I think each blogger should do what is most comfortable for them in terms of balancing the personal with book talk. Some of us aren't comfortable talking about the personal, especially in such a public forum. While such posts are fun to read--I love getting to know the blogger behind the blog--I have my own reasons for not wanting to share certain aspects of my life with just anyone.Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-88166811804822310782010-05-30T14:47:52.886-05:002010-05-30T14:47:52.886-05:00I like your idea of round bloggers and flat blogge...I like your idea of round bloggers and flat bloggers. For ages, I was a round blogger, in that I wrote about my life and all my interests on a single blog. A few years ago, thinking that I could make money from blogging, I split my interests (books and gaming) from my personal blog. Now I'm starting to feel that I stripped the personality from all my blogs because I split things up, but I am loathe to delete any of them. So now I'm trying to do some linking between the blogs so that if the readers of my book blog want to read more about my personal life, they can.Dani In NChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15032707452740200776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-34061062840518948892010-05-30T13:02:06.925-05:002010-05-30T13:02:06.925-05:00We are big travelers as well, and as you probably ...We are big travelers as well, and as you probably already know, I often blog about where I go. (I actually send my posts to a travel website). I will be doing some this summer based on our trip out west. I think it is a great idea! <br /><br />As far as book blogging, I have always felt that all book reviews, all the time can get old. I personally love when other bloggers give me a glimpse of their other hobbies, their kids, their pets, etc.Sandy Nawrothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00564390728106776030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-19817270375509410112010-05-30T12:05:55.664-05:002010-05-30T12:05:55.664-05:00I think it's a good idea.

I do enjoy it when people post pictures of their gardens, travels, etc. <br /><br />This summer I'll be away from home for almost two months, so I expect there will be lots of posts about my own travels in among the book reviews.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06906212382849291562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-30040934610483840132010-05-30T11:45:53.296-05:002010-05-30T11:45:53.296-05:00I like traveling both locally and afar - we played...I like traveling both locally and afar - we played local tourist a bit this weekend, and are leaving for our East Coast trip in just about two weeks!
