2013 Worlds Without End Women of Genre Fiction Reading Challenge

The goal of the WWEnd Women of Genre Fiction Reading Challenge is to read 12 books — 1 each by 12 different women authors that you have not read before including 1 random author selection — in 12 months and write 12 reviews. Post your reviews here on WWEnd, or post an extract here then link back to your blog for the full review; you'll get credit either way. We'll cherry pick the best reviews to feature in the WWEnd blog.

If your review gets picked for the blog you'll be enterted into the monthly member review poll for a chance to win one of three prizes — $25, $15 and $10 Amazon gift cards! You must be a WWEnd member to participate and have a chance to win prizes. Join now for free!

To join the challenge simply select 12 authors you want to read from the All Women Authors page. The authors you pick will appear in the numbered slots below. You can pick all your authors at once or pick them as you go. You can change them at any time. Once you finish reading a book, tag it on the novel page and it will appear in your list in place of the author's picture.

Are you ready for the challenge?

Basic Requirements:

You must be a WWEnd member to participate. Join now for free!
You have to be logged in to see the WoGF tracking features.
If you're new to WWEnd be sure to check out our BookTrackr™ — you'll use it to keep up with your challenge progress.

Authors:

Choose 12 different women authors total. They must be authors you haven't read before!
One of your 12 selections has to be a randomly selected author.
You do not have to select all 12 authors to get started.
You can add or change authors at any time.
We'll be adding new authors all year so your options will change month to month.

Books:

The first book you tag by each author on your list will count towards your challenge.
Only one book per author will count.
Only books tagged after January 1st will count for your challenge.
If there is a book you want to read that we don't have in our database just let us know in the forum and we'll get it added for you.

Reviews:

To complete the full challenge you must review all 12 of the books you read.
The reviews don't have to be elaborate productions. Just tell us what you liked and didn't like. Of course, the better your reviews the better chance you have to win in the monthly review polls.
The best reviews will be featured in the WWEnd blog with an intro and link back to your own blog.
All the featured reviews for the month will be in the running for "WoGF Review of the Month" to be voted upon by WWEnd members.
Only one review per member per month will be considered for the WWEnd blog. This is to ensure that everyone has an equal shot at the prizes each month else folks that read fast or have more time to read will have an unfair advantage.
Only reviews submitted in the current month are eligible for selection for the WWEnd blog.
Only full reviews or extracted reviews submitted to WWEnd will be considered for the review poll. If you post a link to your off site review without an extract it will be ignored.

Prizes:

The winnning reviewer each month will receive a $25 Amazon gift card and everlasting glory.
The second place reviewer will receive a $15 Amazon gift card and will be consumed with a burning desire to win first place next time.
The third place reviewer will receive a $10 Amazon gift card and will be happy to have made the podium.

If you have any questions, we have a Women of Genre Fiction Reading Challenge thread in the forums where you can get answers and chat with other participants. Happy reading!
