I don't know about you, but I've followed links to too many blogs that haven't been updated in months and been a little frustrated. Now, that's mine is among them ... I'm even more frustrated.
So, what's the occasion? Please don't assume it's a New Year's resolution. I don't do those; I have no trouble breaking promises to myself without another reason to feel guilty about it.
No, this is for all you readers out there. I happened across a link to ebook challenges -- and since I joined the ranks of Kindle owners this holiday season, I checked it out (you can find it below). Basically, the one that appealed to me was the challenge to read at least 12 of the FREE books you download this year.
I've only owned my gadget since Dec. 25, but I sense the need for that kick in the behind already. I downloaded 3 or 4 Jane Austen novels after things settled down here, and I started Northanger Abbey last night.
But, I know that if I let myself wander through Amazon's freebies, I'll soon be awash in books I may never get to. So, this challenge from the unreadreader.com leaves me hoping that doesn't happen. We'll see.
If you're interested, go to http://www.theunreadreader.com/2010/12/2011-show-me-free-challenge.html
(And, as the writer points out, you don't have to have an e-reader to do this; many can be downloaded right to your computer.)
