Bookmark hoarding and how to control it.

Post by BreannaCamp9413 »

For many, myself included, bookmark hoarding is a huge problem. How do you control bookmark hoarding you ask, the answer is simple. The first step is admitting you have a problem. The next step is wanting to fix that problem. Then the next time you're using a bookmark, and you finish your book... take a sharpie, write on the back of the bookmark the name of the book that you read with it, the author of the book, and the date you finished the book. When the bookmark is full, don't use it! You now have a reason to buy more bookmarks!!! You're welcome! Hahaha

Hahahaha oh goodness! I have a horrible tendency of loosing my bookmarks so no hoarding issues for me! Even if I did manage to keep them and write on them the books I read with it I think I would want to throw it in a drawer and keep it! LOL

I would probably end up doing that for only one book at a time and still hoard all of the bookmarks I could! :shifty:

I would mark each book mark by year so they don't get scribbles all over them and put it in a box but I as I said I have a terrible problem of loosing my bookmarks. LOL I will say I still have my bookmark from NanoWRiMO! I think this is the longest I have managed not to loose a bookmark. :lol:

Hi, I'm Gravy, and I have a bookmark problem.

(Hi, Gravy)

But it's okay, though...cause, see...I make my own, so I always have a fresh supply on hand!
Also...I read more than one book at a time, probably just so I can use more than one bookmark at a time, but I admit I have a problem! So...it's all good, right?

One of the advantages of kindle is that you don't need a bookmark... 8)
