Readathon Begins (Hour 1)

Excited that it's readathon day!  I almost missed the start, but got myself out of bed and setup to start reading.  First a quick blog post... 

Where are you reading from today? 
Washington DC area.  My fiance has graciously allowed me to ignore the lovely weather outside today and just read and chat with all of you. 

3 facts about me …
I'm a librarian, an only child and love to encourage others to read.

How many books do you have in your TBR pile for the next 24 hours?
2-3, but I really want to spend time encouraging others this year as well. 

Do you have any goals for the read-a-thon (i.e. number of books, number of pages, number of hours, or number of comments on blogs)?
No goals - that's too much pressure.  I just want to have fun!

If you’re a veteran read-a-thoner, any advice for people doing this for the first time?
Take time to interact with other blogs and do the mini-challenges.  It helps mix up the day a bit.

    3 Facts about me...
    I'm a foodie; I'm a geek; and I love the Fall

    How many books do you have in your TBR pile for the next 24 hours?
    I have about 15 - but I am doing a Graphic Novel theme for my first time in...so I don't expect it will take me as long for each one.

    Do you have any goals for the read-a-thon (i.e. number of books, number of pages, number of hours, or number of comments on blogs)?
    Nope. Cheer-leading is my number one goal this year.

    With that in mind - good luck and let the pages turn! ::I'll be back soon to check on you::
