[QUOTE=northjason;4762904]I have three small kids, so no way will I hit a number anything like 1000, but I just registered so I can participate. (I've been lurking a while.) I'm eyeing a number closer to 250 comic books. Right now I'm at... 3![/QUOTE]
Welcome! You don't have to make your target 1,000, you can set it lower :)
[QUOTE=doolittle;4761655]Ooh! I’ve always wanted to get in on this, but never found the thread until late in the year. What do we usually do, update the same post over and over with progress? Or post new updates?[/QUOTE]
[URL="https://community.cbr.com/showthread.php?119781-1000-books-in-2019&p=4756719&viewfull=1#post4756719"]Here is a link[/URL] to how I do it. I cover what I've read that month but with an up-to-date master list in the same post, once per month. You'll figure out a way that works for you though :)

I think I am going to post a small list of what I have read for the week with the yearly total. Then post the master list at the end of the year. Last year I posted my master list every month and that was a lot to scroll through. Will post my list from my reading from Sunday to Saturday.

Never mind. I will do posts for monthly reading. Posting every week would just clog the thread.

I don’t know about everyone else, but getting weekly updates from other users would help keep my motivation up.

Welcome and good luck with the small ones! Maybe you can make it a team effort and get the kids to participate as well :D

I am one of the lucky ones who will hit 1000 or over. I dont work and am a caretaker for my disabled father. Once I get him settled or when he is sleeping I read comics. Right now comics are my only real hobby so I can read a ton. On a good week I can crank out 70-80 issues.

Thanks! That’s super thorough. I think I’m going to set up a Google sheet for it and use a similar format.
I see you were waylaid by PoE. Gaming is going to be my main downfall, too.

You're welcome! If you're happy to, you could share your spreadsheet here and others might use it. I've always meant to make one. I love a spreadsheet :p
I was waylaid by PoE, but no more. I find that games like PoE (even though I play entirely solo) tend to suck me in too much and it negatively impacts the rest of my life. The only exceptions are Elder Scrolls and Diablo II, the latter being one of the most constant things in my life. I'm trying to stick to Diablo II and reading :p

I’ll share it for sure once I make it!
I keep wanting to give Diablo II a try. Is it too late to play it for the first time?

Absolutely not! I'm part of an online community of people who play Diablo II single player offline, and we still get new players and it's a really tight knit community. We have community events and put a lot of effort into sharing our characters, a couple of people add a lot of storytelling :) We also arguably have the most knowledgeable players around, so there's a lot of support for new players.

Go for it! This was the last one in the main series that we got. I believe the youth series will follow.
