Everyone has their own routine to blogging and today I wanted to share my routine with you all.
PLANNING
Okay so at the start of the month I have a checklist of new lists to write(!) Which normally takes me about 2 hours to complete. The first checklist is The Update. This one is where I tick off things I have to update such as my blog stats, media kit etc etc. The second one is my favorite one and that's the monthly blog post checklist and it looks something like this:
That leads me onto the next stage:
PHOTO'S
I always bulk produce my photos and that includes setting them up, editing and relabeling them. For my photos I just use a Samsung Point and Shoot Camera, I normally spend around 8 hours doing this, taking away the brakes I give myself.
WRITING.
The same as photos I like to bulk write because its not everyday that you feel inspired to write and I think you guys can tell when a post is uninspired. I schedule them way in advance as you can see above though, I don't write all my posts at once. This normally takes an hour a post to write and I tend to write 4 posts each time on average so therefore I write for about 4 hours.
SOCIAL MEDIA
Sometimes I schedule tweets but lets be real I'm on twitter 24/7 but lets say I'm a good little blogger and actually schedule my tweets and promote my posts I say this takes about 2 hours.
This is how I blog. It takes me about 16 hours a week to do blog type of things which is the same hours as a part time job, which I would prefer to blog than part time work. I think blogging shouldn't be seen as a job and it should be fun.
If you're a blogger how many hours do you blog a week and if your not a blogger how long do you reckon bloggers blog?

Upping My Blog Game
So over the next couple of weeks you will probably be able to notice some changes on Charlotte's Corner, because I feel like my style is changing and I really want to reflect that through my blog. I'll give you a little heads up first though!
PHOTOGRAPHY.
One of my biggest annoyances with my blog has been my photography. I actually did a photography course at college so I am more than able to take photo's I just never had anything to take them with but now I have invested in a swanky new camera to take the photographs I actually want on my blog.
CONTENT.
Now that I am off college I have a lot of free time which means that I can take a lot more time on the content that I am producing and now I am only publishing content that I am 100% happy with.
SCHEDULING.
I am now going to be a lot more organised and I have now devised a new blogging schedule so that new posts go up every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
SOCIAL MEDIA.
I am currently in the process of setting up a new themed instagram account but unfortunately my phone is broken so I'll let you guys know more of that when it's ready, but in the mean time you can always interact with me on Twitter and Pinterest which I'm aiming to be more active on.
BLOG DESIGN.
I now feel like my blog channels my style of simplicity but if there is anything else you want on my blog don't hesitate to ask.
Thats all for now. Have a great day.
