11.Mar.2009 Graphic Novels Challenge 2009
1 January 2009 – 31 December 2009
As I’ve been reading a few graphic novels this year, thought it wouldn’t be too difficult for me to complete the Graphic Novels Challenge 2009. And we still have a whole year to complete it.
Rules
Choose a level of participation:
Minor: Read 6
Major: Read 12
Masters: Read 18
Doctorate: Read 24
For now I’m just aiming for Minor. But we’ll see, I may read more.
Update 12 Apr ’09 Since I’ve done with Minor, I’ll set myself up for Major. Seeing how I grew fond of graphic novels, I don’t think this will be a problem ;)
Update 5 Jun ’09 Woohoo! Done with Major! Going for Masters now!
Update 12 Dec ’09 Reached Masters. I haven’t been exactly aiming for any higher actually. It just happened.
