Swinter Read-A-Thon and Miniwrimo :)

 
So, excited this week is going to be a very, very busy week for me – with lots of fun stuff. Well, things I consider fun.

1) This week is Swinter Read-A-Thon. If you don’t know what that is – it’s basically a – Read-A-Thon… Still confused?  A read-a-thon is when a people get together and try to read as much as they can for a certain period of time. Swinter is for a whole week so from 3/16/15 to3/23/15 I’ll be reading along with other people doing this is. If you want to know how you can join in on the fun… watch these videos.
The original video created by Lauren TheBookNerd

The Puppet also made a video about the books the puppet will be reading during the Read-A-Thon


2) This week is also Miniwrino. If you know what Nanowrimo is – Good for you. If you don’t… well it’s basically takes place in November, and it stands for National Novel Writing Month. It’s when people try to write a novel in a month – or try to. However – there is also Camp Nanowrimo which takes place in April and June – if you’re interested in checking that out. However . Miniwrimo – is an idea that my local writing group, came up with where you try to write 10,000 words in 7 days.  And it starts on 3/15/15.

These two awesome things happen at the same time – so I will be writing or reading or maybe just sleeping. Either Way. It will be great fun. :)
