Bout of Books Read-a-Thon


Yeah, yeah...I know.  Another read-a-thon! Sorry! But, as I was telling one of my fellow bloggers, the addiction runs long and deep. =O)

You can still sign up through October 28.  Go HERE for details/sign-up

Here is my main reading list:
Under the Dome (read-a-long catch up)
A Discovery of Witches (read-a-long catch up)
The Forest of Hands and Teeth (from my own shelves...glory be!)
American Horror (horror short stories)
Decayed Etchings (horror short stories)
The Reindeer Keeper (for review on Rudolph Day)

Now, take a look at this pile of books. These are writing books I'm consulting in the week leading up to NaNoWriMo. This week, I will be going to the library daily for planning and I will be reading these writing books (well, not all of them obviously).  Yes, I'm attempting NaNo again and I'm determined to succeed this time.

Thank you for visiting and taking the time to comment. It means so much.

I apologize for word verification, but as soon as I changed the settings from only users with Google accounts, I started receiving a ton of spam comments...within one hour of changing the settings. The bots are on high alert apparently.

  1. look at that stack of books...LOL Hope you had fun (I didn't have time to particpate).

  7. *waves* hello fellow crazy read-a-thon addict! ;)

    I may give NANOWRIMO another try as well, I don't hope to finish though. Unfortunately it falls during my very busiest month at work, when even my at home time becomes some work time and I'm too tired to think. I wasn't going to bother, but then I got a pretty good idea this week and I've been considering it. Good luck with reading this week, and with noveling next month! :D
