First off...sorry I'm slipping 馃槀I hadn't forgotten to post the contest this month...just been busy hehe but I'm still here and still ALIVE and it brings me great joy to run this contest each month. Anyway...last month's contest was such a great success; I had so much fun reading/seeing all the comments, jokes, gifs and it appears from the feedback that most who entered did too! There was a bumper give-away with @vyb.vyb and @calumam getting involved and supporting the contest as a one-off for Christmas which was very much appreciated. I have added a personal VYB delegation to this month's list of prizes myself.
.
I was chatting to somebody recently about whether there was a pivotal moment for them that brought them to fall in love with books and reading and what course their journey in reading had taken from childhood to the present day.
.
So for this month, the entry requirement is as follows (just answer the questions in a single comment to this post):
.
1) Tell us about one of the pivotal moments that cemented your love for reading. Was it a person, a place, a specific book, or a story?
.
2) What are your top 3 books from your childhood and tell us about your social affinity to one of your faves; how it found a place in your heart.
.
3) Share with us 3 of your favorite authors and titles that you have read as an adult, where you either had to acquire your own copy for your personal library or would go back and reread for the sheer joy and experience of it.
.
4) Tag 3 people who you think might enjoy coming along to play with us (if one of them is a new Hiver, you get an extra entry in the draw!)
.
I will share my own experiences with the above, in the winner's post.
.
And that's it...simples 鉂o笍
.
Prizes will be drawn randomly using the random.org randomising list and consist of some of my favourite community tokens.
.
New Hiver prize
1) 1 x 50 HP delegation for 3 months to the highest drawn new Hiver (account opened 1 October 2021 or later and who also has less than 200 HP available to them) plus 2 HBI units
