I am taking the plunge and participating as a reader in Dewey’s 24-Hour Read-A-Thon (October 24, 2009). The goal is to read, post, visit, participate in challenges and interact with other tired readers for 24 hours straight. Will I actually last 24 hours? I am certainly going to make the best effort. My dilemma, I tend to get tired from reading close to my bedtime. I need to come up with a plan of attack. When to read, when to post and when to check out other brave souls progress. I was thinking of making a list of possible books to read during this book-reading-fest but have decided to play it by ear (or eyeball). Oh my, I am already tired thinking about it – I love my sleep!
It is not to late to take the plunge. Visit Dewey’s 24-Hour Read-A-Thon for all the information you will ever need regarding sign up (as a reader or a cheerleader), some fantastic prizes and answers to some frequently asked questions.
Let me know if you plan on joining!

Good luck! I’m not so sure I’d be able to pull this off although there have been times when I’ve read into the wee hours although that was thanks to insomnia.

I’m too old to intentionally make myself stay up 24 hours. That’s my excuse, anyway.
Thanks for entering my book give away.

I guess we will see how this ol’ lady fares!
I’m going to try for the whole 24 hours too. My eyes got tired just typing that
I hear you! Though a entire day to devote to books and blogs – yay!

I know it’s not officially time yet (good thing, cuz I need to get some sleep!), but I wanted to give you some encouragement. I’m looking forward to it, and I hope you are too!
I want to read Rebecca!
