19.Apr.2009 Read-a-thon: Hour 17

readathonbuttonI’m enjoying this so far, as long as I don’t look too much at people’s statistic, like how many gazillion pages they have read or how many dozens of books they have finished. I have probably read about 5 hours more or less, while the rest was spent sleeping, eating, and blogging. Isn’t it great to spend a day just reading, eating, blogging, and sleeping? ;)

I gave up keeping up with my statistic because I kept losing track of how much time I spent for this and that.

The mini-challenges that I participated in since the last post:

Tammy’s Book Nook’s A Nod to Nonfiction
Filling my Patch of Sky’s Reading Madness! mini challenge

Life in the Thumb’s You know you’re participating in a read-a-thon mini-challenge

Thank you for everyone that’s been visiting! I’ll try to go around for a while to drop comments for you too!

    Howdy at whatever hour we’re at! Hope it’s going well!! Keep reading! Don’t look at anyone’s stats (you can look at mine: I haven’t read much and lost track of my commenting….. CHEERS!

  • Linda says:

    Don’t worry about the stats. Just enjoying the reading!

  • Becky says:

    That’s funny about the stats. I will admit, since I’m going about cheering others on, there are some stats that really have me intimidated! :) I can’t wait to do the next challenge, but doubt I could keep pace with some of the readers here. Even if you haven’t kept your own stats, you’re still doing great to still be at it! Best of luck as we near the finish.

    I know what you mean, some people read so darn fast! I try not to look at them too much either. I’ve passed my page count from last year so I’m happy with that. Good luck with the rest of the read-a-thon.

    Thanks for the encouragement everyone. Some people do read really fast!

  • Erin says:

    As I think about the next read-a-thon, I’ve been pondering if I want to keep better stats . . . mine were not standard from update to update. But I’m not a numbers person, so I’m not sure if I want to copy it. I’m thinking of creating some odd stats to keep that would be make people laugh rather than intimidate! Maybe we could do that together! :)

  • mee says:

    That’s excellent idea! I’m in! I’ll start to think about it from now for the next read-a-thon ;)
