I normally go overboard signing up for challenges because I can't resist a pretty button but then fail dismally at actually completing the challenge. A more sensible approach was my motto in 2012 and I'm sticking with that this year. Seriously ... I am!
I wish I could show more restraint in signing up for challenges. But the shiny buttons always grabbed my attention. It will be interesting to see which books you choose for the Aussie authors challenge. I'll have to keep a look out.
ReplyDeleteLovely to have you back for another year of the Aussie Author Challenge Teddyree! Designed the Fair Dinkum level as a real stretch this year across genres - looking forward to seeing which authors you include in your list.
ReplyDeleteThanks Joanne, you've certainly amped up the challenge on the Fair Dinkum level, I'm looking forward to it :)
DeleteOhhhhh I can't wait to hear about the books you are reading for this challenge!!
ReplyDeleteI am amazed that I've been able to remain unswayed by the pretty challenge buttons this year! Dropped my challenge participation drastically this year.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your chosen challenges!
ReplyDeleteGood luck! I'm signed up for the Historical Fiction Challenge too.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Teddyree :D I would love to read more Australian novels, so I just might hop on the Aussie challenge. I have only ever read excellent novels written by Australian authors, so as far as I know they cannot go wrong LOL
ReplyDeleteI am a sucker for pretty buttons!! Have fun with the challenges you are embarking on my friend!
ReplyDeleteGood luck on all those challenges!
ReplyDeleteGlad to have you on board for the Historical Tapestry challenge this year! I am participating in both the Aussie challenges too!
ReplyDeleteCool challenges! I love the Aussie challenges. I've only read a few books by Aussie authors, but I've loved them all! Thanks so much for joining my Dusty bookshelf challenge. Hope you get lots of dusty books read :)
