I'm still looking for more authors. The deadline is Friday! There have been some great ideas submitted so far. If you're interested in being a hostess, but having a hard time coming up with a challenge, just let me know and I can help you out.

I have gotten some fabulous author (hostess) applications. I could use a few more though. If you were on the fence about being a author (hostess) it's time to get you application in. It's super easy to do - gather your ideas and send them to me and then make a sample of your challenge and then be around during your challenge time to answer questions - see - super simple easy
and fun. If you have any questions, or need any ideas, just let me know - I work in a library y'know - unlimited ideas here
