Some Changes Coming to Kingdom People
I am grateful that so many readers took my brief, four-question survey last week. At the start of my fourth year blogging here at Kingdom People, I needed to get some input from those of you who read this blog consistently.
Because of your input, I’ve made a few decisions regarding the content here at Kingdom People.
1. Trevin’s Seven.
Many readers indicated their desire for more frequent links to other blogs. In the past, I have saved my links for Friday’s post called “In the Blogosphere.” As of this week, that feature will cease.
Instead, on Fridays, I will provide a list of seven links that deserve the most attention. We’ll be calling the feature “Trevin’s Seven.”
Throughout the week, I will be posting links to other articles that merit attention. I will usually label the ongoing posts “Worth a Look.”
2. Book Reviews
My book reviews continue to be one of the main reasons that readers frequent this blog. In the past, I have tried to write reviews of every book I read. The more I read, the harder it gets for me to give every book that much attention.
So… in the future, I will concentrate on one book review (maybe two) per week. For some of the other books I read, I will offer some notable quotes or paragraphs.
3. More Articles
If I can back off (a little) regarding book reviews, I can devote a little more time to writing articles and doing some cultural commentary. The reason I have focused on book reviews and interviews in the past is because I felt the blog was stronger if I continually pointed to other authors and other’s ideas. The results of the survey indicated that many readers want to hear from me more often. I’m honored by that request, and so I will try. If the blog’s content suffers as a result, we’ll go back to more book reviews!
Thanks again to those of you who read this blog daily. I am honored that you would consider this blog worthy of your time and attention, and I hope to be a good steward of your time in future service to our King.
