After a long hiatus of not hosting any blogathons, I’m pleased to say that for the next three days I’m back in the hostess chair again for the Bette Davis Blogathon which has just started today.
Below are the list of entries. I will be promoting all the posts as they come in. As usual all participants have put in an outstanding effort, and I know that Bette will be proud to see all bloggers coalescing to celebrate her Birthday.
A big thank you to all who have participated. I look forward to reading the entries. This is for you Bette. Happy heavenly Birthday from all of us classic film enthusiasts.
