I'm setting my writing goal at 1 this year. Fingers crossed!

Merja Pohjola Why only 52, since you seem to be a fast reader? ;)

52 for 52 weeks in a year. I'll probably increase the total when I surpass it.

I'm actually not a fast reader, really. I've been reading kids books with my niece and shorter things lately. Plus all the audiobooks I go through make it seem like I'm a speed-reader.


message 6: by Merja (new)

Merja Pohjola Oh, okay ;)

I'm thinking about adding those religious tract pamphlets, you know, those ones that Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses jam in your door when you're hiding from them behind the sofa.


message 9: by Melki (new)

Melki Go for it! The Watchtower is always good for a few laughs.


message 10: by Jason (new)

Jason Koivu OH! Now I see why everyone's been liking my book challenge thingy lately. I've made goal! And wow, I'm really proud of the book that put me over the top...

Robin wow you made it, that's sick ;)


message 17: by Jason (new)

Jason Koivu Robin wrote: "wow you made it, that's sick ;)"

It took a few questionable "books" to make it.


message 18: by Robin (new)

Robin and some unfinished ones ;)


message 19: by Robin (new)

Robin the important thing is that y enyoyed reading ( listening to) them, and not how many y read, but still it's worth an applaus, 100 books in one year, sjees

It's all rather arbitrary. My true annual goal is always 52, because I figure one book a week is doable. But the last couple years I've been reaching that goal in June, so then I up it to 100.
