The Literary Whale Challenge

Have you ever had something that you've always wanted to try but just have been a little too afraid to try it? A challenge that seems as colossal as a whale? So have I and I am left with no choice but to attempt this challenge.



In English class, we were assigned Herman Melville's Moby Dick this past Thursday. This book is infamous in school for destroying grades and being a difficult read to say the least. This book seems as daunting as a whale is large. In honor of this book, I pose a challenge: the Literary Whale Challenge. In honor of reading the wonderful Moby Dick I challenge you to attempt a feat appropriate for yourself,possibly pertaining to literature (ie. reading a challening book, writing a novel, etc)to complete the Whale Challenge. Comment on this post with what your challenge will be or even just that you will be trying the challenge. I will periodically announce my progress with my English assignment and once the book is assigned to be completed, the challenge will end within a few days or so. If you meet your goal, post it on the blog and you might be able to win a certificate. Good luck, and have fun!
