MemberYes, Bible reading most definitely counts.
Just to make sure… To those who have posted multiple 200+ page books already, you are counting books read from June 13 onward, right? Remember that you can only count pages read past June 13. The rules tell you what to do if you’ve already started a book before the Read-a-Thon began, so look ’em up if you need to.
Jordan
MemberIf you’re actually reading whole pages, count it!
Jordan
MemberSo it begins: https://incredibooks.com/ibdiscuss/topic/read-a-thon-2011-page-counts
If you’re seeing this after the Read-a-Thon has begun, you have until June 30 to sign up. Come on and join us!
By the way, we have updated the prizes page lately as we’ve started to get some prizes in.
Jordan
MemberThe Read-a-Thon begins tomorrow! Is everybody ready?
Jordan
MemberThank you, DaughterofLight!
Jordan
MemberAll right, pay attention!
We’ve been absolutely showered us with prizes. I’ve lost count of how many books we’ve got coming. Some of them are sets and signed copies. It’s unbelievable!
Anyway. Given the showers of blessing on our efforts, we need to shove this program over the edge and multiply it. Simply put, we need more participants! And there’s only one way we’re going to get more participants… promotion!
We need you! We’ve got to get the word out about this program. So start talking, anywhere and everywhere!
Every little bit counts. Our greatest weapon is social media, so even the smallest status message can help. Post on Facebook, Buzz, Twitter (use #readathon5 as a hashtag), whatever you’ve got. If you have a Facebook page for your business, please consider posting from there, too!
In addition to chattering it up, blog posts would be extremely helpful. Those of you with blogs, please consider posting on our behalf! Below I’ve pasted a sample post with all the pertinent information. Feel free to plagiarize it.
And remember, we have a lovely assortment of graphics, designed for us by the talented Vilisse from Holy Worlds, for your use! If you have a website, please consider posting one of these images in your sidebar. https://incredibooks.com/read-a-thon/promote-the-read-a-thon/
Thanks, everyone! Let’s get the word out!
Here’s a sample post you can feel free to copy if you like:
This summer, grab a book or twenty and sign up for this year’s coolest reading program!
The Read-a-Thon is back for its 5th year, and it’s bigger than ever! Join the unified forces of Incredibooks and Holy Worlds for a race to read the most pages between June 13th and August 13th. There’s a delightful stash of prizes – including books from Donita K. Paul, Bryan Davis, Jill Williamson, Answers in Genesis, and more! Sign up on any of the participating forums before June 30th to win! All ages welcome.
Please visit https://incredibooks.com/read-a-thon/rules/ to read the complete rules. Check this page to find the sign-up lists: https://incredibooks.com/read-a-thon/sign-up/
Interested? Please help us spread the word! https://incredibooks.com/read-a-thon/promote-the-read-a-thon/
See you there!

MemberTahiriVeila is spot on.
Jordan
MemberThe Rogue Crew may not be the last Redwall book, actually. Brian Jacques said in many interviews that he was several books ahead of releases, so there may be some others still to come.
Jordan
MemberCorrect, DaughterofLight.
Jordan
MemberWe used to have signatures here, but I turned them off because they were being abused. PAW is right, though, about Gravatar. Your profile image is pulled from http://gravatar.com and if you put a picture there, it will show up here on Incredibooks, as well as other places on the internet where Gravatar is supported.
Jordan
MemberYep, the excitement was the bigger-than-planned Read-a-Thon.
Jordan
MemberI’m Malfhok over there, but I lurk, mostly.
Cannot wait for Song of the Ovulum. I preordered it the day I found out that it was possible. Now I camp out by the mailbox. *kidding!*
Jordan
MemberAlso, if anyone is a member of more than one of the participating forums and would prefer to sign up over at Holy Worlds, the other two sign-up threads are here:
Jordan
MemberWe are currently working on both of those, and promo graphics for blogs and such. Announcements to follow!
Jordan
