Quick Questions with …Myself?

January 13, 2017 by MsWas 14 Comments

To kick off Cannonball Read 9, our newsletter maven, Bothari43, interviewed me as the first Q&A of the year. How did you become Coordinator of Cannonball Read? Did you start out as a participant? Cannonball Read 2 was my first time as a participant – here’s my first review!  At the end of CBR3, Tamatha asked me to take over running CBR4. That Read and CBR5 were standalone blogs over at wordpress.com, and our reviews would go up daily over at Pajiba. For CBR6 though, […]

Cannonball Read NINE Has Begun!

January 1, 2017 by MsWas Leave a Comment

Cannonball Read 9 has officially started. Note: there is one new field that you’ll need to fill in when you are writing your post: Book Quantity. Use this field to say how many books are being reviewed in that post. The data in that field will eventually replace the manual update of the leaderboard, but not yet.

Sixth CBR8 Donation to American Cancer Society

December 31, 2016 by MsWas Leave a Comment

To close out the year, I’m so happy to tell you that we’ve made another donation, in the amount of $200, to the American Cancer Society in AlabamaPink’s name. I’m also pleased to note that our donation today was doubled, due to a group of generous donors to the American Cancer Society who have issued a challenge: They will match every gift made before midnight tonight, dollar for dollar, up to $25,000. So our donation was doubled, to make $400. That brings our group total for the year […]
