The Final Update for this April Dewey Readathon

  1. Which hour was most daunting for you?  I would say hour 16 to 17.
  2. Could you list a few high-interest books that you think could keep a Reader engaged for next year?  I would definitely recommend The Cougar Club by Susan McBride.    I would recommend the Daughters of Fortune series by Judith Pella.  I also would recommend The Yukon Quest series by Tracie Peterson.  There have been some additional series to follow.  Another author I would recommend is Alexandrea Weis and her Nicci Bellavoir series.  I found that  those books kept my interest.
  3.  Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next year? I would make sure that the links work for the mini challenges.
  4. What do you think worked really well in this year’s Read-a-thon?  I thought the hosts did a great job.
  5. How many books did you read?  I read 3.

  7. Which book did you enjoy most?  I really enjoyed  The Cougar Club by Susan McBride.
  8. Which did you enjoy least?  I enjoyed Overboard the least but I also just started it.
  9. If you were a Cheerleader, do you have any advice for next year’s Cheerleaders?  I would like to see the cheerleaders be more present next year.
  10. How likely are you to participate in the Read-a-thon again? What role would you be likely to take next time? I would definitely do it again.

Have you ever wondered how Writer’s Corner came to be?                                        A blogger friend recently asked why did you start your blog?   I once said that I would never blog or write.   I was in a job search at the time and it was not going anywhere.   So I decided that I would work on my writing.   I found a nonpaying writing position with chicklitclub.com .   I started Writer’s Corner initially to practice what I wrote for that site.      The next part of the journey was meeting some great ladies that some of you know well Samantha Janning at Chick Lit Plus , Melissa Amster and Amy Bromberg from ChickLit Central , Laura Kay from A Novel Review , Pia from So Many Books So LittleTime , and last but not least Liz and Lisa from their  author site.   I am so thankful for their support. I also had an opportunity to feature Liz and Lisa’s novel Your Perfect Life .   I live in the Atlanta area and get many opportunities to meet some great authors.   Some t
