It's the perfect time of year for a read-a-thon! We're all working to finish off our reading goals (and maybe the challenge) for the 2017 year. So it's the perfect excuse to kick back and read.
How does this work? If you’re new to read-a-thons, don't worry! They're very simple. You make a commitment to read as much as you can for a set period of time and then you do it. There are often games, challenges, and discussion associated with the event but, for the most part, it's about reading and camaraderie. This read-a-thon there will also be an individual challenge to really focus in on your own accomplishments.
For our read-a-thon, we'll be committing to read as much as we can for four days. Yes, that's a bit short for our typical read-a-thon but it's a busy time of year :)
How much do I have to read? There isn’t a set amount you are required to read to participate. Many people choose to set personal goals for themselves but the idea is just to read as much as you can for the week and see what you end up with at the end. It’s all in good fun!
When is this happening? START: Thursday, December 14 @ 12:00 PM (EST)
Note: The event runs from noon Thursday to midnight Sunday. Honestly, I figured may as well include the full weekend ;)
How do I participate? All you have to do to join up is to read! But read-a-thons are always much more fun if you participate in the games, join the discussion, and track your progress so we strongly encourage everyone to take part in that.
Where do I participate? Keep on eye on this folder during the Read-a-Thon for updates, progress reports, and more! They'll start being posted closer to (and after) the event starts.
As usual, we'll be posting new games every 24 hours throughout the event in this folder but you'll have all week to join in if you missed anything. The discussions and games keep the event active and lively so, again, we strongly encourage participation. Come play along and have some fun!
