2. Go to line 7
3. Copy down the next 7 lines - sentences or paragrpahs - and post them are they're written.
4. Tag 7 other people I don't really like tagging, but if some other people would like to do it that would be awesome.

And wow, it was kind of a close thing too.  I finished the 50th book not more than a couple of hours ago.  Awesome challenge, though!  

In case you missed it or were interested, the micro-reviews of the first 25 books are here.

Tada!  \o/

I think I shall attempt this challenge again next year, as it unexpectedly did prompt me to keep up with my reading instead of letting it flag.  And considering that there is a linear relationship between how much time I spend in a bookshop and how many books I leave with, it has done well in at least ensuring the to-be-read book pile hasn't grown any larger.

Which reminds me, it's that time of year again - that is to say, reflective meme time.  I'm sure I will make a few more posts of that nature of the next few days.

At agentlerain 's prompting, I took up the 'read 50 books in a year' challenge in January.  Recently passed the halfway mark, so am nicely on schedule!  Here's the first 25 in a nutshell:

What with having a fancy masterlist now, the usual Fic Year In Review probably doesn't have much the same point, but I'm a creature of habit.  So here it is!

Meme ganked from blauerschnee

If you happen to be working on some creative writing project, fanfiction or whatever, post one sentence/paragraph/whatever from each of your current work(s) in progress in your journal. It should probably be your favourite or most intriguing sentence so far, but what you choose is entirely your discretion. Mention the title (and genre) if you like, but don't mention anything else.

I've got a lot more WIPs than this, but tried to keep it to ones that actually have a chance of getting posted.

( And hooray, only one of them is leftover from the last WIP meme? )

Summer seems to have finally gone into full swing - nights are now just as miserably warm and humid as days.  This means I've been spending much more time downstairs playing games or leaving the house in search of air-conditioning, and thus, there has been less time for writing.  Sadness.  :(

In the absence of a fic, here's an interesting meme I stole from thephoenixboy .
( The Massive Book Meme )

I was originally quite determined to ignore this, but had to get in on it once the rest of the team started. :)

1. There are 30 questions.
2. Next to each number, write only the name of the person who fits.
3. Answer one question with one name.
4. Don't tell the questions to anyone who isn't doing the meme.
