Welcome to the FOURTH ANNUAL February is Fantasy Month Extravaganza!
This year’s fantasy month is going to be a little different than our regularly scheduled programming. Starting today and going through the entire month of February, over TWENTY bloggers have banded together to bring you awesome content about all things fantasy-related. From some of our favorite fantasy things to helpful tutorials and writing tips to character interviews to reviews, this event is going to be EPIC!
There is also a hashtag game you are welcome to play along with over on facebook/twitter/instagram. And next Tuesday I’ll be introducing a fun blog tag, so there are plenty of ways for you to jump on board the fantasy flagship and fly off to join the fantasy fun! (Also, alliteration continues to be king)
First off, the hashtag game:
As you can see, this year’s “theme” is “Fantasy Favorites” and I look forward to hearing all about your favorite fantasy-related things!
And now for the schedule! I will be updating this with the links to actual posts (as opposed to the generic ones that just get you to each blog) as the month progresses. There will be posts scheduled Monday through Saturday each week in February.
THERE WILL BE AN EPIC FANTASY PRIZE FOR THE MOST COMMENTS left across the Blog Tour posts.

~
Jenelle first fell in love with stories through her father’s voice reading books aloud each night. A relentless opener-of-doors in hopes of someday finding a passage to Narnia, it was only natural that she soon began making up fantastical realms of her own. Jenelle currently resides in the wintry tundra of Wisconsin —which she maintains is almost as good as Narnia — with her knight-in-shining armor and their four hobbits. She homeschools said hobbits and helps them along on their daily adventures... which she says makes her a wizard. 
Oh, my goodness. This is not just epic. You realize that you’ve practically created an anthology here? Wow, no excuse for the February lulls with all of this amazing content in store!
I’m SO EXCITED!!!! Can’t wait to read all the posts!
I am SO EXCITED for this month! Fantasy books forever!!!
Can’t wait to see all the awesome content coming up!
Same here!!
Wow! Perhaps “Epic” is an understatement!
Looks great…. er…I better stick with the alliteration for the month: looks Fantastic!
Hurray! Sounds like loads of fun!
I couldn’t get my act together to participate officially (my blogging inspiration has been reeeally low lately) but ooh, now I’m curious about this tag thing! Will have to make some plans for that hashtag game as well. 
Excited for all the things!
Totally understand! I’m glad you’re curious about the tag, I think it’s fun, and the questions aren’t too difficult, so that’s nice. I mean… it’s about favorites and things, so that’s hard for me, but if you already know your favorites and like talking about them, or if you just want to rave about a new favorite or two… then it should be pretty easy to do.
Sorry blogging inspiration has been low lately! I know the feeling!

Hi, I will check out your site over the next month. Cheers. Feb 4 quote: thanks for all the fish.
That is one of my favorite quotes as well. Ahhh, Douglas Adams.
EEP. I’M SO EXCITED!!! Look at all the lovely posts lined up. *heart-eyes* I’ve been on vacation and just got back yesterday, so I’m a little behind on the February goodness (okay, I’m a little behind on EVERYTHING). But I hope to join in on the hashtag game anyway and the tag! I just love Fantasy Month!
YAY!!!!!
Hope you had a lovely vacation! Welcome aboard the hashtag express!
I’m glad you love Fantasy Month! I love it, too!
I’m enjoying the hashtag game! And I’m excited as always for February is Fantasy Month!
Yay! I’m so happy you’re enjoying the hashtag game! Coming up with the prompts is always my least favorite thing… but after that, it’s all just fun.
Yeah, I know the feeling. It’s probably even harder than coming up with questions for a Leibster/Sunshine Award tag.
I always seem to have at least one prompt that is a duplicate… I don’t think I did on this one…
Mmm . . . I just checked and didn’t see any duplicates. Nice job!
