| Dewey's 24 Hour Read-a-thon |
It’s sort of a reading challenge, only everyone participates at the same time. For 24 hours, participants read books, post on their blogs about their reading, and visit other readers’ blogs. They also participate in mini-challenges throughout the day.
This year's read-a-thon starts at 8 AM on October 9th, and goes until.....you guessed it.... 8AM October 10th!
It was created by the beloved Dewey (her blog has since been taken down, so the link won’t work). The first one was held in October 2007. Dewey died in late 2008. The read-a-thon was renamed to honor its founder in 2009.To learn more, and/or sign up, click here.
I didn't sign up as a reader, as I was not sure how much time I could commit. I am still recovering from surgery, and that weekend is busy for me. It is the weekend of my son' s 2nd birthday, and it is also Thanksgiving weekend!
I did sign up to host a mini-challenge though! I am very excited about that!
So, what are you waiting for? Go sign up! And come back and do the mini challenge!
