April Marathon!
In January, we held a "Winter Challenge" in which we read all seven of The Chronicles of Narnia in one week -- one book a day. When that was over, I recall some people saying they really enjoyed that and would like to do it again. I believe I promised we would. So here we are!
The April Marathon will begin Easter Sunday, April 5th. Because of this, I am planning to read LWW first, and then proceed in Chronological order the rest of the week, simply switching MN and LWW. The week would look something like this:
April 5 -- LWW
April 6 -- MN
April 7 -- HHB
April 8 -- PC
April 9 -- VDT
April 10 -- SC
April 11 -- LB
We will have a sharing thread up in the General Narnia Discussions thread. Because of how much reading there is, sharing is not required, but if you have a thought you liked in reading, or a favorite character you re-discovered, or wrote a fanfic or poem or drew a picture based on your reading, there would be the place to share it.
If you want to join in but feel you don't have time to do all the reading, fear not! You can do audio books, or the FotF audio dramas. The only thing I'd prefer you not to do get the reading in is watch the films.
It will be a hard, grueling week, and I'm looking for only the best, the brightest, the strongest, the most enduring Narnians to join with me on my quest. Who is with me?

Re: April Marathon!
I'll try, yes. I've been needing to reread the books again.
If somebody has an idea for a Narnia comic that they weren't planning on making themselves, I <------ This offer still
would be so grateful if they would send it to me in a PM. I am running appallingly low on ideas...! <-- stands.
