Same here! Work computers have everything blocked and it would be a bit obvious if I was staring at my phone :/

Just a reminder that if you want to participate in this challenge you only have until the 20th to sign up. I have already paired everyone up who is participating thus far but i'm going to wait to see if we have anymore stragglers before I post the final reading assignments.

It would be nice seeing some of the people who did this last year come back again this year.

Rachel, you have until tomorrow night to fill in your info if you still want to do this. The sooner the better since I'd have to re figure things.

Thanks!

Here are the pairings I have come up with based on what you guys have said you like and read etc...

Keep in mind, I did the best I could. Obviously there might be some things you'll have to actually challenge yourself to do. LOL

So here's the next step. Look at what your reading partner posted as the story choices and select one of them to read this summer. If you want to read more than one, feel free! But pick at least one of the selected stories and then post in here which one you chose no later than Wednesday, May 30th.

I will start a brand new thread on June first which is when the challenge will begin. In the meantime feel free to PM your reading partner and get to know each other. I hope you guys enjoy this experience! :)

Reading partners:

Purpura Lipstick & Rose

Delphinacarter & kevmylove 

Simple Sue & carterkid

tigger128 & Carter-Orange

Julie & Mare

Julilly & Ritz


Woot! :)
