And We're Off!

First, we must determine a winner for the treats in Prize Package One.

The names of all the participants are written on a strip of paper.
The strips are subsequently folded into equal sized pieces. (I don't teach third grade for nothing!)

The winner is Trish of Trish's Reading Nook! Congratulations, Trish!

I have several more prizes to be given away during the challenge: music, books, origami, things to delight and amaze so don't be sad if you didn't win today.

Of course, today marks the beginning of the Japanese Literature Challenge 2. I have yet to determine exactly which books I'll be reading, but I'm certain it will be more than three. I'm also certain that we are going to have a wonderful adventure together.

Thanks for joining.

  6. Way to go Trish! I hope you are enjoying your prize.

    I was reading thru the list of films, and realized that I had rented Picture Bride a couple of years ago, long before I'd ever heard of this JLC2 challenge. I have been curious ever since about the Japanese view of filmmaking as well as books.
