    I'm interested in joining a circle, however the ones on the first page seem to be mostly inactive. I'm 20 chapters in to my legacy, so I feel like I'm too late to join a circle now...It's apparently 2½ hours or close to that to read though. My legacy is largely game-driven, with an occasional plot-based scene in. I'm not really sure what circles are active with open slots or if I should create my own. Any suggestions?

    Hi, James! Shall we start a new circle? I just started a legacy recently, too (also around 20 chapters in, but still with first gen, so still feels kinda early). Might be fun to have a legacy circle.

    Anyway, I was super busy for the past few years, but I'm newly semi-retired, so now I have time for reading, participating or managing a reading circle, and so on!

    I'd love to be in a Legacy Circle with you, if you're still interested!

    that sounds fun. most of mine kinda disolved. i don't read much though cause i have dry eyes and i'm drop sesitive.

    That sounds like a good idea, and I'm definitely still interested. The only thing I am worried about is that I'll end up not having enough time to write and then have to abandon my story. But I don't think that's a concern at the moment since I'm in lockdown. I'm gonna go to start reading your story 😁

    Yay! Let's have a Reading Circle, then! It can be generally for legacy stories, preferably newish ones, but we can expand a bit, since @friendsfan367 wants to join. Well, her story was an alphabetacy, at one time, so I guess it generally fits!

    @JamesSims528 , would you like to start the thread for our circle, or would you like me to? Once it's started, we can also put out a call for others to join, both here and in the Writers' Lounge.

    @CathyTea I'm happy to start the thread, but I have no idea what to call it. Thinking about possible names, I'm wondering like something along the lines of Beginning With Legacies maybe? I have no idea... Also, how many people should we have. I was imagining up to 5 or 6 but I don't know...

    On second thoughts, maybe it would be better for you @CathyTea to manage it. I'm trying to write a welcome but it's not going very well 😬. Also, I don't want to end up having too many things to do, seeing as I'm going 'back' to (virtual) school tomorrow. So yeah, could you start it? Thanks :smile:.

    Sure, I'll be happy to start it! Hope virtual school goes ok. I'll probably start the thread this evening and put out a call for a few more members. Five or six sounds good.

    Oh, that's annoying! I have that happen sometimes when I go into buy/build mode or try to get new houses.

    Maybe creating a reading circle wasn't a good idea. I'm going to scrap my reading circle and leave it alone.
