We have daily blogging topics for the week of BBAW.  As a courtesy to bloggers who preschedule their posts, we are announcing them now.  Please do not post in advance of BBAW, but rather post each day along with the community!

Our theme for this year is: Celebrate Books!  You are welcome to use this button on your BBAW Daily Blogging Topics posts.  Please save it to your own computer first.

Each day of BBAW, we’ll have a Mister Linky up for you to submit your permalinks to the daily blogging topics.  It’s optional to participate in the daily blogging themes, but you are encouraged to participate so that you can meet many other wonderful bloggers.  On Thursday of this week, we’ll have a test run with Mister Linky so stay tuned for that if it’s your first time to use Mister Linky!

Monday September 14
The shortlists for the awards will be announced next Monday, September 7th.  The first day of BBAW, Monday September 14th, we encourage you to write a post thanking and spotlighting your favorite blogs that didn’t make the shortlists. 

Tuesday September 15
We will post our blogger interview swaps!

Wednesday September 16
Reading Meme
We encourage you to be creative with this!  Please choose one or two questions to answer or try to answer all the questions in five words or less.  Or choose a picture to answer a question!  Brevity is the goal of today!

Do you snack while you read? If so, favorite reading snack?
Do you tend to mark your books as you read, or does the idea of
writing in books horrify you?
How do you keep your place while reading a book? Bookmark? Dog-ears?
Laying the book flat open?
Fiction, Non-fiction, or both?
Hard copy or audiobooks?
Are you a person who tends to read to the end of chapters, or are you
able to put a book down at any point?
If you come across an unfamiliar word, do you stop to look it up right away?
What are you currently reading?
What is the last book you bought?
Are you the type of person that only reads one book at a time or can
you read more than one at a time?
Do you have a favorite time of day and/or place to read? 
Do you prefer series books or stand alone books?
Is there a specific book or author that you find yourself recommending over and over?
How do you organize your books? (By genre, title, author’s last name, etc.?)

Thursday September 17
Today we encourage you to blog about a book you read only because you discovered it on another book blog.  Preferably, this will be a book you loved!  You might also write a bit about the blog you discovered it on!

Friday September 18
Setting Goals!
