Don't be! You can always download and print our custom <a href="http://incredibooks.com/read-a-thon/promote-the-read-a-thon/">Read-a-Thon bookmarks</a> (bottom of the page), and we have another special bookmark offer for you. This year we were inundated with donations. We had fourteen prizes, adding up to over 26 individual books. We also received a large number of bookmarks... A vastly large number of bookmarks! If you would like to receive some of these bookmarks, send a self-addressed stamped envelope to PO Box 748 Tompkinsville, KY, 42167 Please make sure it's a business sized envelope so we can fit longer bookmarks in it. These fold nicely into thirds to fit inside a personal sized one. Please note that these are not Read-a-Thon bookmarks; those are only available online. These are bookmarks that were donated with the Read-a-Thon books and promote works by the authors who donated. Share them with your friends and spread the word about these awesome books. (Also take note that if you won a Read-a-Thon book, you have bookmarks already on their way to you with your prize.) Thanks again for an awesome summer of reading!

After much counting and recounting we have counted all your pages and are ready to reveal the winners. Sure, most of you know the top reader of your forum, but don't forget that this was a tri-forum contest and you must compete with complete strangers as well. Here's how the winners are chosen. First we picked the person who read the most of all the forums put together. Then we picked the top winner from the other two forums. Then we picked the second highest reader from all three. There are six prizes left over that will be awarded to randomly drawn winners at a later date. So if you didn't win by highest prize count, don't leave yet! Your turn is coming up. So! The grand winner is Fara of Holy Worlds Science Fiction who read an astonishing total of 45,103 pages! Congratulations, Fara! The top winners of the other two forums are Hannah Marie from Holy Worlds Fantasy at 27,266 and OrdinaryDay of Incredibooks at 22,080. Second place goes to wolfluvr42 of Incredibooks at 19,976, Elly of Holy Worlds Fantasy at 18,458, and Andi Loyd of Holy Worlds Science fiction at 10,000. If you are a winner you will be notified shortly by PM to claim your prize. Once all the winners have been notified we'll draw members at random for the remaining prizes. And now here's my favorite part: some trivia for you. The forum with the most pages read is Holy Worlds Fantasy, which had 47 participants who read 187,478 pages. Second was Incredibooks with 26 participants who read 143,398 pages. Science Fiction came in third with 3 participants who read 67,657 pages. Grand total number of pages read for the entire contest was 398,533. (Say that number out loud and then high five the person next to you, fictional or otherwise.) The average number of pages overall per participant was 5,313, For Fantasy the average was 5,066, for Incredibooks: 5,515, and for Science fiction 7,517, thus proving that HWFantasy only has the highest page count because of the sheer number of participants, and that science fiction writers read 2K more pages on average than fantasy writers and book reviewers. Thus ends the official announcement. Remember to stick around for the drawings later on! Thank you so much for participating and making this the best ever Read-a-Thon, and we hope to see you again next year!
