Alannah, I remember you mentioning new questions before, and it's a good idea, please can you message me if you have any ideas and we'll sort something out?
Should we maybe come up with a new set of question for when AAB turns one year old in August?I think there's still quite a few members (new and old) that haven't done the original yet, so why don't we stick to the old one until July? Maybe we could have a little period of collecting ideas for new questions?
And a bit of a "last chance to contribute" message? Even I had to be kick-started on this, although I've been with you all from day 1!

Yes that's a good idea, Jenny. I have been thinking about new questions, and I would like to change the format, as there are only so many questions you can ask about someone's past reading history...

Probably a better idea.

I think it's easy to assume everyone knows about everything that's going on, but it's not always the case.
Yes, good idea about sending a message out! And I think changing the format a bit is a good idea too.
I'm curious, do you have to use the questions? Or can it be more of a narrative?
Mods - p-l-e-a-s-e say the latter! ('Cos I've just finished mine to be ready in time and it's a right old meander... *bites nails*) I do answer the questions... in my own way though...
Mine is similar. I answer the questions, but more in a narrative style rather than the blocky format of question/answer.

I find easier to follow a question pattern, but if you want to do it in a narrative style I don't think it is a big problem!!!
Thanks! I kind of used them as a starting point, as I seemed to remember the initial concept was that the questions were there if we wanted them. But most people have focused on answering them quite carefully, so that it's almost like an interview. It's a relief to find it is open :) I do find them fascinating to read - and still have not read them all :)
Hi Jean and Roderick, the questions are there as a help (sometimes people can't think what to write) but if you would like to write more and in your own style, that's absolutely fine!
I was hoping that was the case, thanks Shirley :)
Thank you Jenny:)
