*Ahem* For this post, it is important that you read to the end. That's where all the really good stuff is.:)
Misty and I were talking the other day about what type of content we are going to include beyond reviews, interviews, and guest posts for our Fairy Tale Fortnight event this April (so soon!!!). Both of us had ideas regarding vlogs, and then Misty had an epic idea of awesomeness-
What if, we were able to get a whole bunch of people to each record and upload a clip of themselves reading a short snippet from a fairy tale (we would send you what to read). Then, you would send it to Misty (because she had a LOT more experience that I do at editing videos, and I'd ruin it...) . After Misty has received all the clips for everyone, they will be edited together into one video. So, we would have this completely awesome video that is a communal bedtime story, featuring people from all over.
Isn't this awesome?! BUT, this is definitely an idea that requires a lot of participation. It will not be awesome if no one is interested in participating with us. So I'm asking you — What do you think? Is this something you would participate in? Is this something you would watch? What fairy tale(s) would you most like to see read?
And, would you rather have one big video, where everyone reads 1-4 sentences, or 3-4 separate videos where a few people at a time read longer clips?
Please, please, please let us know!! You can also check out Misty's post about this idea by clicking this link to take you to her blog, The Book Rat.
And, to make this even better, and to encourage more participation, I have plans in the works for a special giveaway. Misty has already mentioned that she is going to have a prize pack during the event for participants only (if you want to be included in that list, in my blog to go to the sign up form!!!!). Both Misty and I really want this event to be a success, and for it to be a hit, we need a lot of participation. But, I understand that not everyone has the time or resources to contribute a guest post or giveaway. And that's fine. But, what about all the awesome people who have our buttons on their sidebars, or tweet/retweet about the event and just help us promote in general? Well, stay tuned. Sometime within the next few days, when I've managed to collect my thoughts and figure out how I want this to all go down, I'm going to post about how you can be entered into my promoters only giveaway. So grab those buttons, tweet those links, blog away etc. The more you promote, the more chances you have to win!!
Comment away, and let me know what you think!!!!!
