The event I have been looking forward to for so long is fast approaching, Dewey’s 24 Hour Readathon will begin for me in UK time at 1pm tomorrow, only a matter of hours to go! 😀
I’m so excited to be participating in this great event, so far 434 readers have signed up and I am honoured to be joining them.
I just thought I would explain a little bit about how I will be tracking my progress on my blog. In the past I have seen bloggers do it in a variety of ways, many do a new post on their blog with every mini-challenge or regularly on scheduled hours. However, I don’t want to be clogging up your inbox with multiple posts, especially for those that aren’t interested in the readathon and my progress! So, I will do all of my updates on one main post – my progress, mini-challenges, complaints, etc. It would mean so much to me if you could pop by a few times in the day, to say hi and cheer me on, or even just with any crazy anecdotes from your day. 🙂 I may need it, especially in the early hours of my time zone and look at it this way, you may get to witness my slow spiral into insanity from lack of sleep! Won’t that be fun?

I have also finally chosen my readathon stack of books and I tell you, it was not easy to do! There are so many novels I want to read right now that it was hard to prioritise. I wanted to pick ones I thought I would enjoy, so the majority are by author’s I already know and love, but there are also a few unknowns. The one book I know I’ll pick up is Trudi Canavan’s, the rest will depend on my mood tomorrow. There’s no way I will get through all of these books, in fact, I doubt I will even make it through two because I’m a slow reader! But hey, I like to have options. 🙂
Speak to you tomorrow, let the games begin!
