ring in the new year with a readathon! dedicating time to reading is my most favoritest way to end one year and begin the next, and so we bingo for a sprinkle of festivity

anyone is welcome to join in ♡

to literally rip from my post last year: fills are focused on checkpoints along the way of reading + easy peasy pitstops when you need a break, rather than focused on what you’re reading, so it's friendly to multiple genres and formats! win by any pattern you choose!! this is all for fun & the love of reading

ACHILLEAN BOOK BINGO - AUTHOR OF THE DAY

[femmehysteria]

@macrolit 's 2023 reading bingo - completed most of it but the last 2 evaded me

[uncomplicatedbookreviews]

I'm starting a summer reading challenge! This was actually something that my university handed out to increase leisure reading in the graduate and veterinary students. The challenge ends in August so let's see if we can get a couple of Bingo's or maybe even the entire board!

2024 r/Fantasy Bingo

Trying to get back into reading this year and using the r/Fantasy subreddit's Bingo board as a motivator

It runs from 1 Apr 2024 to 31 Mar 2025 so I've already read 2 books that count! Not sure which squares I'm going to use them for yet because they fit multiple - but for no I'm thinking I have Alliterative Title and Book club book covered.

Full rules in the Reddit Post if anyone else is interested

Hiya!! Just wanted to say thank you once again for the Reading Bingo - I completed it just in the knick of time this year, but it kept me reading through a Masters, so thank you!! Will there be one this year? I really hope so :)

Hello! Oh wow, you're very welcome! Amazing that you finished the Reading Bingo while completing your Masters program! Congrats on that. :) Yes, I'll do one for 2024. I'll get started on it!

@macrolit 2024 reading bingo. I need to determine what exactly constitutes a classic novel (today on things i thought would have been taught to me in my degree and absolutely were not). Technically, I have read fanfic already this year..just didn't know which one i wanted to put (it will probably be a Dunmesh one).

ring in the new year with a readathon!

posting on the day because I’ve been so sick all of december that I hadn't planned to make an event™ of it this year. but I have a stack of books & comics beside me plus audiobooks through libby, and reading is my favorite way to kickoff and end each year! so I'll power through 💪🏽

I’ve done this publicly once before and while I’ve updated the boards, the prompts and this post are largely the same as a time-saving measure. I’m sharing in case anyone wants to join in ♡

boards: one (pictured), two (blue/purple), three (grayscale, easy to read)

Summer Fic Reading Challenge Card

Hello everyone! I signed up to do the summer fic reading challenge by @ficreadingchallenge and I just wanted to show my card. I did it not only because I am a reader as well as a writer, but I wanted to discover new fics and get more of an idea of fan culture.

For me, I did put some extra rules for myself :

If I can help it, I would like each square to be a different fandom. If not, that's fine.

For the most part, I want to read a fic I have not read before/read in depth.

This is entirely optional, but I would like to try writing at least one or two of these when I can.

Since I'm in a Writing Retreat now, I don't know if I will have the time, but I might post about the fics and how I thought about them. I will definitely post a master list of all the fics I read and share.

I have a lot of reading and writing to do.

UPDATE

One of the goals we have for this week is to add in a way for those who consume the content to participate.

Since we didn't know quite how well this week would do first the first time, if there would be interest, or if we would have enough spoons, we held back a little.

But, after thinking it thru, we said:

LET'S DO THIS!

Coming soon:

BINGO cards will be available for readers/viewers to mark off what they have read and seen for prompts, pairings, and more!

We ask that as you come across items for Smut Week and mark items off to share the content and the creators!

Let's promote each other like a true Fandom should and embrace the true value of Fairy Tail: The Guild and those we meet along the way!

Also, small note: This event week is for all content creators! Writing, art, mixed media, video, etc. Please never feel this is only restricted to one type of creative output.

AI generated content, however, is NOT accepted.

Hope you are all excited for 6/9/24!

Come One, Come All - It is time to get some spice on with:

Power Bottom

—Written Prompt— "Warm...their body simmered and boiled, sweat cooling over heated skin. Back arching, hands grasping, they fought for a piece of control, even just the semblance of it. Too much...this would be their final mark in the world, an expiration date date too early. A keening sound rang in their ears, deafening them. When they realized they were gasping, desperate and yearning for the fresh air around them, they finally realized the cry came from them. And the lasting pleasure rolled over them as mind and body finally reconnected."

How Does This Work?

—Dom Prompts— The main prompts, or the Dom Prompts, are the main topics set for the week to use. There are seven there for the seven days the event will be going on.

If one of the Dom Prompts makes you uncomfortable or you cannot come up with something on the prompt, any option from the Sub Prompts can be used.

—Sub Prompts— These are additional items you can choose from to add to your story. Sprinkle in a bit of extra spice, or just use the first prompt alone. Mix and match to your hearts desire!

These prompts, as mentioned above, can also be used as substitutions for any of the Dom Prompts that just don't work for you.

Rules / Event Information

—Submissions— Smut Week is to showcase the works of content creators who make the spicier content. To make things easier for readers and those interested, please ensure the following: At least ONE (1) Dom Prompt, or a substitute from the Sub Prompt list, should be used as the Main Prompt and mentioned. After that, any additional Sub Prompts can be used and mentioned.

maybe they're not maineventing today

but they have definitely been the main event of my year 🤭 joking not joking

[wedontburnbookshere]

I'm visiting family for a few weeks after a health scare (thankfully everyone is okay now). I can't bring many books with me, so I'm dusting off an old kindle I won in a raffle my manager entered me in last year to bring.

It had a few free cozies on it I still hadn't read, so I downloaded some more I've been interested in, since I'm getting into a cozy mystery mood again. It'll be interesting to see how many I read by the time I return home and how many of these boxes they tick off 🙂
