50 Book Pledge—June update


With the encouragement of my publishing colleagues and Twitter friends, in 2012 I took the 50 book pledge.


I was terrified of failing especially when I have friends who are ridiculous speed readers. But it’s amazing what a bit motivation will do. I read more books in the past five months than I read in my four years of university!

Here are my stats as of May 31, 2012:

Total books: 30
Full manuscripts: 13
Fiction books: 24
POCbooks:  20
Books by women:  20 

Anyone else taking this pledge? How many books have you read?

How many MS do you typically get in day that you read?

My boss only forwards me the queries/manuscripts that he's interested in so I have no idea how many he gets per day. Sorry!
