I’m gonna let you in on a little secret. Ruth and I are slaving away (okay, working) at a Read-a-Thon section of the Incredibooks site. I was thinking it’d be fun to have a few testimonials/quotes. That’s where you come in!
Did you participate in the Read-a-Thon last year? Tell us your (hopefully positive) thoughts!
Excited about this year’s Read-a-Thon? Tell us about it!
Add your blurbs to this thread. Please include how you would like to be mentioned (forum username is fine), and your Web site URL so we can link to you.
And if all else fails, use this thread to dump some excitement while you wait for the official Read-a-Thon ’09 announcement. :wink:
My enthusiasim has to do with the fact that I got fourth place last year despite a massive convergence delay (eye problem) and in the midst of moving. Plus, it’s just fun.
I’m no good with testimonies/blurbs but if I come up with anything you’ll be the first to know.
Ah, this year is different. Fear me! My glasses (a new thing for me) will go a long way into fixing my convergence delay. Hopefully we won’t be doing any more moving but it kind of looks like we will…
I love reading so I was excited to do it. I didn’t read as much as some others because I joined half-way through the summer. I’ll try to join early and WIN!
I’ve changed the title of this thread to be for questions about Read-a-Thon ’09, comments, and enthusiasm. It’s a perfect place to pop in and say you’re joining, either before or after the official announcement.
I will be participating, even though I don’t get any of the lovely prizes. Ah well. I’m thinking it may be the perfect opportunity to reread the Redwall series.
I had an awesome time with the R.A.T last and I can’t wait to do it again I’m currently in the midst of trying to get some of my friends to join who are HUGE readers!
