1st June 2017 – Binge TV and Book Cataloguing

So this is my first post of June 17, I was going to give myself a word count for each day but instead I think it is best at this point to just give myself a small goal and then build up.

I am in the middle of my week off and for most of the week the wife has been at work, this was supposed to leave me some good writing time. Don’t get me wrong I haven’t wasted my time, I have done some garden work. the main thing that gets in my way is TV.  I can’t seem to stop binge watching them, first it was Supernatural and now its Grey’s Anatomy. don’t get me wrong I really enjoy them, even now this short blog post has taken 3 times longer because I am watching something. I will soon be caught up and then it will be time to concentrate on writing, or I will pick another show and then waste more time……

The main thing I have been doing while I am off is cataloguing all of my books. I have been looking for a while for something that I can log all of my books in, so that when I am out I will be able to tell if I already own something or what books I need in certain series. I thought I would have to build some sort of Database to achieve this. Until I realised that the goodreads website can do just this. It allows you to create “shelves”  and then log your books against them. The app allows you to scan the bar code to add books which has saved me hours when cataloguing mine.

Well worth a look if you need to catalogue your own books.
