Congrats to all the winners! I feel like such a slacker. I have been at this for 2 hours and still have only started one book. Happy reading everyone!

Melissa, I read (if I’m not mistaken) on the FAQ page that participants may start earlier or later, so I guess it’s okay to start in Hour 5. When I started Hour 1, I visited one reader’s blog who said that she started reading late after picking up her kid. But, I suggest you to contact someone via the read-a-thon’s email for valid info 🙂
It’s 12:17 am my time and I’m still reading 🙂

It’s Your Story…So Write It! challenge was a little confusing but fun. so many people adding at the same time the story doesn’t flow very well but it’s still fun.

This is my first time participating. I’m not really sure how it all works. I’ve been posting on my blog and reading. Finished my first book and am on to the next.

I thought the “Bart’s, Book, Title, Sentence Challenge” was a very innovative idea. Sad, I couldn’t get my camera working (how can things go wrong exactly when you dont want them too ?? )
