2011 Off the Shelf Challenge
Tuesday, December 21, 2010I've decided that one challenge is not enough. With the 2011 Debut Author Challenge, I am participating in, I will be reading a lot of new books. So, what about my old books- you know, the ones that have been sitting all alone in the corner of my room, waiting patiently to be read. Well, I feel that it is their turn too now.
Here's what it says:
Note: This challenge is to read those books you own copies of, but have never got around to reading. If you don't have many that you own, but have a massive TBR shelf you're welcome to read those ones as long as you don't add new ones. You don't need to actually get rid of your books after you've read them, this is just to read them.
How To Participate
1. Decide which challenge level you'll be doing (further below) - do not include books that you buy from the start of this challenge.
2. Grab the code for the badge down below and post it on a side bar or in a signature (if you want to participate, but aren't blogging, on a social network or forum - Submission For Non Bloggers).
3. Create your own post to let all your readers know you’re taking part in the challenge and at what level (if you're really proficient you can list your books!). Make sure to link back to this page with either one of the buttons or a text link..
4. Use the link form below to enter into the challenge by sharing your challenge post url and your name (either your name, blog name, or both).Please don't use the comment form to participate, only to comment on the challenge or something else..
5. Submit your reviews (if you choose to review them, but that is optional) on the review page.
6. When you’ve completed you’re challenge let us know on the completion post. If you're using a tag or category I recommend sharing the link back to that so everyone can find them

I'm very excited to start this challenge, so are you with me? The hardest part for me would have to be that I cannot go and add the books I buy after the challenge starts, I could, but it would not count as a book for this challenge. Good things are coming up for 2011! Can't wait.
