Hour 5! How the day flies by.
Check out Dewey's 24-hour read-a-thon for hourly updates, mini-challenges, prizes, and other distractions.
My update:
Reading: Maurice by E.M. Forster
On page: 542 (it started on page 525!)
Favorite bit: 'Church was the only place Mrs Hall had to go to -- the shops delivered.' (532)
Eating: Homemade butter tablet.
Listening to: Kids screaming downstairs.
Distracted by: Doreen reading me some poetry by Lorraine Mariner from the collection Furniture.
Oh, and another big distraction was finding a tick crawling on my hand! I blame my husband for bringing them in on his clothes, since I haven't done anything out of doors for several weeks now.
I squished it.
Hope you're having fun reading today! Good luck! :)
ReplyDeleteOh no, a tick??? Yikes! I would have cried, lol. Good luck working on your Forster novel!
ReplyDeleteHej! I am here to flutter my ponpons for you (no innuendo intended - I know you are married.. ;"p)
ReplyDeleteThanks, everyone! I'm not reading as much as I should be (my friend and I are too talkative).
ReplyDeleteFlutter your pompoms away!
Ugh, tick! We had a bee or wasp or something in the apartment about an hour ago. That was a little scary. Happy Read-a-Thon!
