Dear readergirlz, the time has come for a contest! Actually, five weeks of contests!Here's the deal: each week from now until Support Teen Literature Day on April 16th, we'll be awarding a package of books to one winner. To enter, you just comment on our blog posts (comments on older posts count - a point for each comment!) and get an extra ten points for taking up the week's challenge. Get ten more any time by becoming one of our blog followers!
Report your post on our blog with the URL (and get eleven points!). We'll keep track of the comments and urls and award the winners the following Monday. Books! Prizes! And you'll be supporting teen lit and hospitalized teens across the country.
This week's challenge:
Post the Operation TBD trailer on your blog (trailer below). Spread the word about Operation TBD!
All posts Monday 3/16 through Saturday midnight PST count toward this week's prize. Thanks to Shelli at Market My Words for the great idea!

I think TBD is a great project and I'm happy to support it. I also run a library for readers who have limited access so books so not only do I identify with this project but we need books. We have zero funding. Thanks for hosting this contest.
SUSAN: which library is this that receives no funding?
I am rocking the drop, girlz!

Hi Justina,
I run a community library at Alternatives For Girls in Detroit. You can find more information about our group at Color Online. Thanks for asking.

I'm all over this like the Donner party on each other. Will be posting the trailer sometime this week. I *think* I'm following you...but I came from the Shelf Elf, so I'm not sure. And my Internet is acting all wonky right now when I click on the FOLLOW button. Maybe it's just not my day. Le sigh.
This is a fantastic project! Usually I don't re-post things on my blog but I really support this project. I posted it here:

I tried to add the "I Rock the Drop" icon to my site, but couldn't figure out how to do it.
I couldn't manage to become a follower, either.
I'm such a Luddite.

Blogged about TBD 3/17 after following a link to the press release yesterday (and I am totally confused as to why this 3/16 post shows up as brand new on my "blogs I follow" list, but oh well)!
Here's my post URL:
http://llowens.blogspot.com/2009/03/operation-teen-book-drop-2009-coming.html
I didn't include the trailer on purpose; figured I'd do that down the road in a closer-to-the-date post.
Good luck continuing to get the word out!!
Yay! I follow and posted about TBD here: http://noraatnow.blogspot.com/2009/03/operation-teen-book-drop.html
