It’s Sign-Up Time!

Mar 2nd 2011shestenreadathon

April 9th is coming up soon! We’re opening up Read-A-Thon sign ups for readers today. Be on the look out for Mini-Challenge Host sign-ups and Cheerleader sign-ups coming soon.

If you want to sign-up to read during Dewey’s 24-hour Read-A-Thon, just sign the Linky below: (your URL doesn’t have to be a blog you write, it can be your FB profile, a twitter account, etc. Just somewhere we can follow your progress while you’re reading!)

Also, if there are any bloggers that would like to, we would love it if you could do a post just announcing that you’re reading and linking to this sign-up post, and encouraging your readers to do the same. If you’re not comfortable doing that, please consider snagging one of our buttons and placing it somewhere on your blog, or create your own! If you’re not comfortable with that, we’re still cool, no worries. *wink*

Thanks everyone! We’re really looking forward to this year’s Read-A-Thon!

I am so excited for the readathon. It is one of my favorite times of the year!

Seen this is the past, but always been too busy. Hoping that nothing will get in the way of me doing it this time.
Juleson 03 Mar 2011 at 3:59 am 3

I wish I could participate, but it looks I will likely be at a convention during the weekend. Maybe I’ll drop in at some point, and do a partial read-a-thon.

Funny. I woke up thinking, “I wonder if I missed the Dewey Read-a-thon sign ups, I should check today.” And there it was, the sign-up post in my feedreader.

Yippee! I can’t wait.

oops, I got excited and accidentally submitted twice! I only put my name in the first time, and realised so pressed the “stop” button on my browser. Then submitted with my blog name too. But both went through. I feel like a doofus! I am sorry, can you please delete my first entry with just my name. Besides that screw up, I am still excited for the read-a-thon.

This is gonna be awesome! I’m going to have to read some of my case books for school too (hope that’s ok), but I have so many TBRs to work on!

I’m a last minute sign-up, but a big thanks to Kate for turning me on to the Readathon!

Woot, an excuse to read all day, and ignore my responsibilities!

Unbelievable. Less than two hours after I signed up for the Readathon, I received a phone call from my father about the death of an aunt of mine. The funeral, out-of-town, is set for 10 a.m. on Saturday morning.

This is our first time to join the Dewey 24hour readathon challenge, so please bear with us. I’ve already indicated through the weblink above what my planned set of books for Saturday are. =) Excited to meet everyone who’s joining!

I noticed 448 people signed up for the last RAT. It would be great to see that number get even bigger this time!
Triaon 07 Apr 2011 at 12:25 pm 148

I’m doing it, but – as you said I could do 12-and-12 – I hope you won’t mind if I actually split it a bit more and make it 6-6-6-6, beginning tomorrow (Friday) – it will mean I’ll actually take in everything I’m reading and won’t need to take extra pain medication to make it through the time. I hope that that’s all right.
Elizabeth Reicherton 07 Apr 2011 at 3:45 pm 149

Just found out about this today. Sounds neat! I have to read 42 books before the 22nd, so hopefully this will help me with that. Sounds like fun!
Tichwion 07 Apr 2011 at 4:45 pm 150

I can’t wait to get started! I have a stack of books lined up and ready to go. I have a blog post started with my list of books and will update it with last year’s outcome and this year’s goals. Let’s get ready to read!
