April 23rd - 29th 2012
It's coming...to shake up your peaceful spring. ;O) Yup, it's the Spring into Horror Read-a-Thon, April 23 at 12:00am CST to April 29 at 11:59pm CST (adjust times according to your time zone). Now don't let the word 'horror' scare you away from this read-a-thon. You do have to read at least one scary book during the duration of the read-a-thon. That book can be horror, paranormal, thriller, mystery, etc. The rest of the read-a-thon, you can read whatever you want. More horror/scary stuff or just your regular reading repertoire. As always, this is a week long read-a-thon, but you can join in and read whenever it's convenient for you. It's all about being laid back and getting some reading done...with a little bit of scary thrown in.
I really want to do this read-a-thon a bit differently this time. Meaning, more focus on the reading and less focus on mini-challenges. What I'm thinking is possibly some short reading sprints or something along those lines. If anyone has any suggestions, please feel free to leave me a comment. I'll also still be looking for prize donations (or anyone who would like to host a giveaway or something), but I'm not going to be seeking them as intensively as previously. I know many people that joined my previous read-a-thons have expressed a desire to focus more on the reading and I'm thinking I'm of a like mind. Whatever prize donations I do receive will be awarded in participant giveaways mostly.
