OK, so I joined another challenge (smiles guiltily). Hey, I’m a receptionist, I have a lot of time on my hands! This time it’s a blogging challenge instead of simply reading. The challenge is hosted by Dewey over at The Hidden Side of a Leaf, and the rules are as follows:
1. Every week there’ll be a different theme. One week might be “catch up on your library books” week and the next might be “redecorate your blog week” or “organize your challenges” week or “catch up on your reviews” week. It’ll be fairly bookblogcentric, but not exclusively.
2. Everyone who joins agrees that they will try to check each week to see what the theme is, although they DO NOT have to participate each week, only when they feel like it.
3. Everyone who joins is welcome (encouraged, begged!) to send Dewey ideas for weekly themes via email, comments, whatever. The more ideas, the better.
4. Dewey will post the weekly theme each Saturday, but you can check in any time it’s convenient to find out what the theme is.
5. If you post about your progress with that week’s theme in your blog (whether you were wildly successful or didn’t get around to any of it) then you can come back and leave a link to that post in the comments for that theme.
6. The next week, when Dewey announces the new theme, she will also post a mini-carnival-like blurb, with links to everyone’s progress posts. Either way, you’ll have a link to your blog every week you participate, which will hopefully help other participants find their way to your posts.
I think it’ll be a lot of fun—lighthearted and not too stressful. At the very least, it’ll give me something to while away my time on.
