FYI, you can not sign-up on our Home Page until January 1st, 2015.BTW, Pamela thought of this challenge way, way before Survivor came up with the idea. ☺
It took us forever to decide on the Blue Collar hero pic. Did we do good?
Glad you approve, Lisa. LOL!
I think this will be an interesting challenge. I'm very interested in seeing which hero wins from our members' readings.
Is this just for contemporaries? What happens if you're reading a historical with an aristocrat as a hero who may be a bit of rake? Is that counted as white collar? How about a paranormal romance with a vampire or shifter hero? Thanks Mods.
No, not just contemporaries! You can read anything. ☺
The mere mention of heroes made me perk up. It's going to be a really heated challenge... *fans self* :P
Lisa, it depends on what else the rake is. If he is an aristocrat or of the gentry, then I would say he's white collar. If he works with his hands, he's blue collar. Vampire or shifter... again, depends on what they do on the "side."

Thanks Mods. Can we confer with you if we are unsure? Looking forward to the challenge.

Wonderful, Nikki♥! Welcome.
We would have to assess them on an individual basis, Karen. They might just go into both, who knows?
Although, I would think a warrior would be blue collar...
If a highlander was a laird, he might be considered white collar... any comments on this?
I was thinking the same thing, LK.
I'm pretty sure I read more blue collar than white collar but it will be interesting to see at the end of 2015 what my final count will be :)
Oooh I like this one! I'm pretty sure I read more white collar. At least I think I do...
Welcome, Amanda and Share. I'm interested in my tally, too.
A challenge to do with heroes.. I'm definitely in!BTW, all the pics are awesome..*fans self*
