I have off the following Monday so I can catch up on "important" household stuff then :) Thanks for reminding me about the readathon Deb!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16933950234435601434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7497062501059248350.post-33583572132059579982012-09-09T15:46:32.850-05:002012-09-09T15:46:32.850-05:00I feel like it's fate I visited your blog toda...I feel like it's fate I visited your blog today because I love participating in events around the book blogs but I tens to forget when they are and to search for them, so I was especially excited to see you were discussing Dewey's 24-Hour Read-a-thon today! I've participated since I started my book blog 3 years ago and always enjoy it. I don't get a lot of reading done because I enjoy the challeges and visiting blogs, too, but that's okay!<br /><br />Your story about how you became a book blogger is wonderful! And a testament to what a fun,friendly and interesting place this is.<br /><br />Time to signup!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09866342436745173619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7497062501059248350.post-77088491885248996422012-09-09T11:07:14.760-05:002012-09-09T11:07:14.760-05:00Yay!

If not, I'm doing a Read-a-thon Lite too.

I tend to shy away from heavy duty commitments...lol. It was great to visit other blogs and see what everyone was doing.<br /><br />I have also enjoyed Bloggiesta, which is at the end of this month. <br /><br />Love how you fell into blogging. That happened to me, too, in a different way. The publishing consultant who worked on my first book suggested blogging; I thought, okay. But it was a year after I started my first blog in 2008 that I "fell into" the community, and I've been hooked ever since. Hundreds of blog posts and numerous blogs later (12, at one point there were 20!), I am still having fun.<br /><br />Here's <a href="http://accidentalmoments.wordpress.com/2012/09/09/tss-september-is-off-to-a-rolling-start-sept-9/" rel="nofollow">MY SUNDAY SALON POST </a> <br />Laurel-Rain Snowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00101090217639410913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7497062501059248350.post-43310426841692355432012-09-09T09:36:16.090-05:002012-09-09T09:36:16.090-05:00Yes, you can read anything you want!
