MINI-CHALLENGES

HOOK of a Book is hosting some great mini-challenges:



Challenge 5: Author Keith Rommel is challenging us to write!

Here is the starter Sentence: I know it's a little strange that I carry this around with me, but...

A dollar bill. it's folded into a tiny square. It rests in my wallet, always. Many a time I've needed an extra buck, a bit of change, but I've never touched this dollar and I never will. It is special and I will not say why :)





CHALLENGE 4: THE THEME OF THIS CHALLENGE IS SURVIVAL


IF YOU WERE TO HEAD TO THE WILDERNESS OF THE NORTH EAST UNITED STATES OR CANADA (THINK REMOTE, DESOLATE) and HAD TO CAMP IN THE FOREST, WHAT WOULD YOU TAKE? IT PROBABLY IS A REMOTE VILLAGE, RESERVATION, OR CAMP. YOU’VE HEARD IT MIGHT BE HAUNTED.



NAME AT LEAST 10 THINGS YOU’D TAKE WITH YOU TO SURVIVE THE TRIP. YOU’LL BE CAMPING THERE FOR 5 DAYS. Get an entry for each thing you list up to 10.


  1. Wood Matches
  2. Stainless Steel water bottle with built in filter

CHALLENGE 3

I'd have to say Zombie Fiction




3.) What do you want to see more from writers in the HORROR field?

Clive Barkers The Books of Blood



8.) What do you like most about this Spring into Horror read-a-thon?

Making time to read and connect with fellow readers.



9.) Why do you think people read HORROR?
For the thrill and escapism, also feeds that what if? Senario.

Their smart!

Molly :)

I'm a twitter follower!

CHALLENGE 2

Stephen King Challenge:

I have one book of Stephen's on my shelf: The Stand


CHALLEGE ONE
The first is to discuss a book we are reading and why. I've got plenty to choose from but I'm really excited for Nevermore by Kelly Creagh.

It's has elements concerning Edgar Allen Poe, Ravens and what looks like a thrilling romance. Looking forward to diving into it. Happy reading everyone!


Comments

What a great pile of books! I really need to read Clockwork Prince, and Nevermore sounds so good. Can't wait to read about your progress! Both Ten and Possess look good too!
Great list, Kai! I bet you finish a good chunk of them too. You're such a power reader. =O)

Have fun reading! I'll be checking in again.

Woah, think some of that is out of order, but it's ok, I got the jest. You're sure reading alot. I find it hard to read enough with little ones, plus doing all this blogging for the challenges. But I have enjoyed setting them all up for you guys. I like your survey questions, thanks so much for being a part of it!

Wow, you did amazing :)
I'm planning to read something relaxing this week, because I almost over-read myself for the read-a-thon ;) Probably some funny contemporary romance :)
Wow, you kind of kicked this readathon's butt with all your reading!
I knew you would rock it! 12 books...I bow to you. ;O) I'm glad you enjoyed the read-a-thon and I hope you will join me for the High Summer Read-a-Thon this July.
