Hour 17: Six Word Celebration Mini-Challenge!


In the spirit of six-word memoirs or six-word stories, I thought Dewey's Read-a-Thon a perfect opportunity to offer a six-word celebration to show our appreciation to Dewey for starting this thing so many years ago and to our ongoing book blogger community for making it such a monumental event and such a great time.

Your challenge is to creative a six-word celebration of Dewey's Read-a-Thon. Go on, you know you want to!

And, I should mention that there is incentive. The winner of this mini-challenge: the most innovative, colorful, and celebratory in six words will win a book of his or her choice of up to $15 from the Book Depository. I'll contact the winner via blog or e-mail!

Will randomly choose an awesome winner at the end of Hour 19! What are you waiting for? Any entries after that will not be eligible. Add the link to your Six-Word Celebration or the ACTUAL six word celebration to the comments below!

And our winner is THE BOOK DRUNKARD!!!! Congratulations! I'll contact you via blog or e-mail tomorrow.
