Extended Profile
I went on the Fourth Plinth at Trafalgar Square on 8th September 2009 to promote Bookcrossing. Check out the video
here .
I'm setting myself two challenges in 2009. Following on from the last two years successful challenge to read 30,000+ pages (see results below) for the year. This year I have set myself a level of 33,000.
The second is to read at least one book a month with over 600 pages in it. I trend to put off the longer books and so I think it's about time I faced my fear!
I list my bookrings at
