On Saturday, November 6th I will be taking part in a marathon reading celebrating the 50th anniversary of the novel To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee. The event is being held at Townsend Park Bakery in Albany from 9 a.m. until 9 p.m. and will raise money for the Literacy Volunteers of the Greater Capital Region. People from all over the area will come together to take turns reading portions of the novel from start to finish. Thanks to Mary from AOA for asking me to be a part of this great event. Hope to see some of you there! For more information, you can check out the event's web page.
I put together a little collection of the various book jackets the novel has appeared with over the years. (above image by Erin Morelli)

YAAY! When is your time slot? I'm 1140-noon.
i'm scheduled for 2:20. i plan to be there for a while though! :) i blocked out the day, haha.
thanks for showing me that i owned the ugliest version of tkam. "the timeless classic of growing up and the human dignity that unites us all"
i think that's the version we all know well - ive only seen a couple of those others since it's been the 50th anniversary. also, i disagree with the idea that there is a human dignity that unites us all.
i know this about you :)
my time slot just got changed to noon
