BookTalk.org News: 7/25/2008
A new contest has been announced in the "Contests and Book Giveaways" forum. Actually, you can read about the new essay contest, entitled "I believe...", in every single forum at the very top. I've made this contest announcement a global announcement so that everyone sees it. http://www.booktalk.org/contest-3-i-believe-essay-t5075.html
The "On The Importance of Reading" essay contest is still running so you have plenty of time to put together a small piece about how you value reading. http://www.booktalk.org/contest-2-on-the-importance-of-reading-t4937.h tml
A brand new page has been created at http://www.booktalk.org/videos.php Obviously, this is a video page. But there is a focus or theme to these videos. As you will see, at the top of the VIDEOS page, the page description is:
"The below videos are all relevant to the books we've discussed as a community. Most are of author interviews, public speaking engagements or lectures. If you find a quality YouTube video that you think belongs on this page let us know."
I'd like to repeat that the "Contests & Book Giveaways" forum is now open to ALL members, as opposed to how it was previously open only to those members with 25+ forum posts. This means YOU can enter BookTalk.org contests and win free books even if you have less than 25 posts.
And again, the discussion threads have been created for the new book discussion forum for "50 reasons people give for believing in a god." Every member should feel comfy joining this discussion even if they haven't yet read the book. Check out that forum and get involved!
