Jodie Sloan

My name is Jodie, and I run Sleeping With The Lights On, an online space where I talk about spooky books.

Running SWTLO has really motivated me to get reading consistently again, and it's high time I used those powers for good, rather than evil.

That's why, this August, I'm going on an epic reading journey for an incredible cause.

I'm aiming to read a whopping 15 books throughout August to raise funds for families living with MS and neurological conditions.

Money raised from the MS Readathon will help fund vital support and services, which include Help Lines available across Australia, MS Nursing, in-home care, speech therapy and physio, Family Fun Days including resources for kids.

So let's get reading!

I'll be posting reading updates over on my TikTok and Storygraph accounts (both @sleepingwtlo), so be sure to check that out if you'd like to know more about the books that I'm reading and how I'm tracking with my goal of 15 books.

For the books, I've decided to keep it spooky but still family friendly, which is why I've decided to work my way through the first fifteen Skulduggery Pleasant books. Wish me luck - that's a lot of dapper skeleton adventures to get through!

Want to join in?

The easiest way to do so is by donating (thank you in advance if you do!) but if you want to take on your own challenge, why not set up your own fundraiser?

You can also join The SWTLO Creepy Corps, and team up with me for the month!

Thank you for supporting my MS Readathon adventure - happy reading!
