I am not sure how well the folks at A Novel Challenge are keeping up with new challenges--or, since the moderator had to take some time off, if folks haven't been posting their challenges there. I plan to post links to any 2017 challenges I come across here on this page.
Update: A Novel Challenge seems to be up and running again. But I'm still going to link here--just in case.
If you discover challenges or are sponsoring a challenge, please let me know by EMAIL (phryne1969 AT gmail DOT com) and I will link those up as well.

Thanks for posting my challenges. I don't know what is going on at Novel challenge either. I submitted mine for next year, using "other" as my start and end date, indicating that they will run from Jan. to Dec. '17. I'll keep looking here for new ones and will let you know of any I find, per your request.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jamie! I have also submitted my 2017 challenges to A Novel Challenge...we'll see if they appear.
ReplyDeleteI just now saw one of mine on a Novel Challenge.

ReplyDeleteThank you for listing my challenges. This is a great list. I was wondering if A Novel Challenge was still active.

ReplyDeleteYvonne: You're welcome!
ReplyDeleteHere's another one that just got posted:

ReplyDeleteFolks...I love you all to pieces and am glad you're alerting me to challenges. But, please, would you email me the links as requested above? This thread is getting a bit long and I look at me email more often. Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteOh, wow. Thank you. I realise I am an addict, and to have them all in one place.... Thank you. Thank you. Now back to my reading....
ReplyDeleteI'm looking for Romantic Suspense or Horror challenges. The 2016 challenge hosts for those genres are not hosting for 2017.
ReplyDeleteDo the "Pick Your Genre" challenge and indicate that those are the genres of your choice.
DeleteAh, yes. I could do that. But there's a 12 book minimum for each genre! Not sure I can swing that.
DeleteWould this one work for you?
Deletehttps://ravucci.wordpress.com/2016/12/14/pick-your-poison-reading-challenge-2017/
Yes!! Thanks, Jamie.
DeleteIt's great to have these all listed in one place! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI just posted signups for my annual challenge:
2017 Annual Witches & Witchcraft Reading Challenge
http://melissaseclecticbookshelf.com/2017-witches-witchcraft-reading-challenge-sign-up-post/
Thanks so much for adding my challenge (Deal Me In short story reading challenge) to your list. "Official" sign up page is up as of today. https://bibliophilica.wordpress.com/2016/12/21/its-the-most-wonderful-day-of-the-year-announcing-the-7th-annual-deal-me-in-short-story-reading-challenge/ Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteI'm waiting to see if the following challenges occur: Historical Fiction, Southern Literature, Books in Translation, Nonfiction, and Feminist Reading. The blog that ran the Feminist challenge I did this year has been deleted, and the link to the nonfiction challenge I did was deleted as well (the blog for that one still exists, however).
ReplyDeleteEvery once in a while I get scruples as to 'maybe I've signed up for enough challenges this year'...silly me!
ReplyDeleteHas anyone seen a Book to Movie Challenge?
ReplyDeleteFYI, Chantal @ The Brown Bibliophile posted on her blog that she will be MIA for a while. So I guess her challenge isn't happening (Oprah's Book Club Selections --Reading Buddies)
