How is it so far?

[Stephanie]

Still here but lost track of hours. Just finished a Blackout Bingo!

From Sourcery by Terry Pratchett.
The world is going to end...
What? Again?

I was going to listen to the other half of Black Beauty so I could knock off a second book, but my Echo decided that I should continue on Sourcery, so that's what I'm sprinting on listening to that while eating my slightly dry Hobbit Seed Cake.

The first story is great! The Empty House by Algernon Blackwood

[Kate]

Well, I'm late due to having to clean up after a sick puppy :( But I'm back at it with . I have 90 more pages in order to get 150 in this book so I'll read that straight. Still have to fit in another couple of Bingo Squares. This will be tight.

Oooh I think I was mixed up on when sprints begin. So sprints are meant to end on the named hour? For example, for me on the East Coast the sprint would be 3:00-4:00 a.m.?

Yes. Because if you think about it, the first hour ends when you're one hour in. So the 20th hour ends when you're 20 hours in, and starts when you're 19 hours in. The 24th hour sprint is the final hour, so starts at the 23 hour mark.

[Liander (The Towering Pile)]

Success! Finished Revenge of the Computer Phantoms and started Dr. Horrible and Other Horrible Stories. 89 pages total!
