This is where I’m collecting the the posts where I’ve set myself a challenge and also the posts where I wrap that challenge up. Lately, I find I like having both (though that doesn’t always appear to have been the case).
The first helps me delineate what I want to actually accomplish and provides some accountability to actually stick to it. (Having a list to check things off of is immensely satisfying!) I’ve honestly been more successful at some challenges than others. There are plenty of half-finished challenges scattered throughout this blog’s history. (Some were always meant to be ongoing, some I forgot about, some I simply failed at.)
And I find that I need the wrap-up post to make me actually let the challenge go. This is especially true when I set a challenge using a common book title or cover image. Every time I see a new one I want to add it to the challenge. But you have to actually stop at some point and call it finished.
So, here are the challenges See Sadie Read has run over the years.
