Admin Post: Hosting Duties
Dec. 30th, 2025 07:03 pmIf you would like to host a monthly discussion, here is a run down of your duties:
- Sign up for your chosen month at the sign up spreadsheet
- The books you choose can be books that you have read before, but if you read them a while ago, please refresh your memory.
- When choosing the potential books, please be aware of the availability of each book. Not everyone can afford to buy a new book every month, whether physical or digital. If a book is in high demand at the library, the participants may have difficulty acquiring a copy to read.
- Another thing to consider when choosing a book is the length – is the book short enough that most participants can get read in one month?
- Two weeks before the end of the month BEFORE your chosen month, post a poll to the community with the three books you are considering. If you do not have a paid account, send the poll information to the mod and I will post it for you.
- In each poll item, you must include trigger warnings, including major character death, rape/non-con, underage sex, or graphic descriptions of violence. Please include any other trigger warnings to give the community members a chance to evaluate whether they want to participate in a particular month.
- On the last day of the month before your month, make a post with the book that has been chosen for that month.
- Create a list of discussion questions about the book. If you would like to make a post to the community for suggested questions, please do so.
- At the end of the month, make a post with the discussion questions. Be available to respond to the comments and queries that the participants make about the book.
