Read-a-Thon: Mid-Event Survey
Posted by: LizzieMid-Event Survey:
1. What are you reading right now? Watchers by Dean Koontz
2. How many books have you read so far? I’ve finished one.
3. What book are you most looking forward to for the second half of the Read-a-thon? Any of them! I was just looking forward to reading is all.
4. Did you have to make any special arrangements to free up your whole day? Jamie had the day off work, which is rare for a Saturday.
5. Have you had many interruptions? How did you deal with those? Well…both Jamie and Aiden got the stomach bug Simon had a few days ago. So. Yeah. Also, I’ve had to feed the kitten and take her to the bathroom. I deal the way I deal with any interruptions: I just go with the flow.
6. What surprises you most about the Read-a-thon, so far? How slow of a reader I am right now! In my defense, I have had constant interruptions and feel pretty lucky to even get one page read.
7. Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next year? None. Everyone is doing a great job!
8. What would you do differently, as a Reader or a Cheerleader, if you were to do this again next year? I can’t think of anything I could do personally. Well, maybe I could not try to read in the same room as the television…
9. Are you getting tired yet? Not any more than usual!
10. Do you have any tips for other Readers or Cheerleaders, something you think is working well for you that others may not have discovered? Not really. I hope everyone is having a great day.

You’re doing great! I have never read Dean Koontz.

Don’t worry about being slow, everyone gets through books at their own pace. Sounds like it was a busy day!
Good luck for the rest of the Read-a-Thon and don’t end up like this… http://www.ahajokes.com/crt579.html

There’s been a couple of people who have had sick kids whilst they are trying to do this.
Hope everyone is feeling better soon and that you enjoy the rest of the readathon.
