ROLLIN' SHORTIES READATHON BOOKS IN PLAY

 HERE IS THE SPOT WHERE I'LL POST MY PROGRESS ON THE ROLLIN' SHORTIES CHALLENGE.  As I said before, I'm cheating and reading "THE HERO WHO RETURNED".  Since the first book read was bespoke, I've done spun the wheel and rolled the die for the second story.  So here's what my progress will look like;  stories have not been read by me until they are marked as read.  Ya git me?

  1. "The Hero Who Returned" by Gerald W. Page from ISAAC ASIMOV'S MAGICAL WORLD OF FANTASY 4:  SPELLS /Not Read

  2. "The Shifting Growth" by Edgar Jepson & John Gawsworth from THE THIRD PAN BOOK OF HORROR STORIES / Not Read

So I'm confused (I know, that happens easily) but when did this readathon start? And it looks like you're off like a heard of turtles because your tally has been at two for a little bit now. I'm not complaining or criticizing as with all these things ya do what ya do but I'm just not sure what's really happening. Now, my other question is does Penthouse Forum count and if so can I include every issues worth?

Plus I don't roll shorties any more I pack fatties. As in cones.

You silly, twisted boy. ROLLIN' SHORTIES starts now and continues for the rest of the year (as I believe I said in the post already but don't hold me to that). And no, I said I would post when I had read the stories -- which I haven't done yet. The first story was scheduled for the reasons also stated in the post and my spin of the wheel and roll of the die determined the second story I will read. Will read. Haven't read either on yet. Dat's why I haven't said in the post that I have readed them.

And either way, I'm pretty sure Penthouse Forums were collected in some paperback books back in the day so they wouldn't count for Rollin' Shorties but sure as yell would count for GarbAugust (which is coming up in . . . well . . . August).

I suspected that of you.
