SCHEDULE AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST
If you followed Jane in June last year, you may recall that it was pretty jam-packed and crazy. Though I enjoyed that and all the enthusiasm that went into it, this year I am going to try to keep it a little more streamlined and less overwhelming on you (the reader) and me (the mastermind who wonders what she got herself into). After I get all of the opening day stuff out of the way, I'm going to try to keep it to 3-4 posts per day. But don't think that means less awesome for you - I've got some great stuff planned!
If you are looking over this intro or the schedule and thinking 'Man, why didn't I get in on this bonnet full of awesome?' don't worry: you are
I'd like to take a second to thank all of the awesome people who are participating in this event by writing a guest post, agreeing to be interviewed, participating in the Read Along, sponsoring a giveaway, etc.
Every post will have one of these buttons which is a clickable link. This is also in the sidebar, and will take you back to this main page, where you will find the schedule. So if you're looking for a specific post, and don't want to wade through everything that's been posted that day, just click one of these buttons and voila!
Now lets get down to business.

I hope its okay but I am going to host a P&P giveaway on my own blog to help celebrate this! I love this!!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to participating! I think I'll be reading Persuasion instead of P&P, though. I've been wanting to get to that one for awhile now!
ReplyDelete"...this bonnet full of awesome"... is awesome! I died!
ReplyDeleteI, too, am looking forward to being a part of this celebration.
ReplyDeleteI am taking part in this celebration over at Http://booktalkswithcharla.blogspot.com I am giving away a pre ordered copy of Jane Austen Made me do it by Laurel Ann Nattress!!
ReplyDeletewow, this is incredibly amazing. What a challenge...but so exciting at the same time. I so wish I could follow along but I'll be gone for two weeks with no computer.
