Hello Everyone!
I hope this message finds you and your kin well and I hope you are all enjoying the summer (or winter depending where you are.)!
It's
drawing nigh of two years since I launched the first The Dark is Rising
Sequence Readathon in 2013 and I'm still amazed and grateful for the
passionate response from all of you! The communities on Facebook and
Twitter continue to thrive and hopefully new readers continue to
discover these fantastic books.
To commemorate Susan
Cooper's 80th birthday in May, the continued support in our online
communities, and 2015 being the 40th anniversary of The Grey King, I
wanted to see how many of you would be interested in a second TDIR
Readathon? If you would be interested please let me know!
Also,
I would like to know how you found the "sign-up" form the last time and
if you have any suggestions for making another readathon better? Was
the start date fine (December 7)? I'm open to anything aside from
creating a new website (unless someone else does it!). I would be as
hands-on as possible, but with family and other responsibilities, I
would rely on you amazing people to spread the word as well! The
Facebook and Twitter accounts would continue and I will resurrect this
blog as time permits and welcome guest bloggers possibly.
Please let me know what you think! Comment below or send a note via Facebook or Twitter. Also, if you'd like to join our mailing list, send me an email request at tdir.readathon (at) gmail (dot) com.
Cheers!
Danny
