  • share encouragement, friendliness, belonging, and enthusiasm about our Sim stories.

  • let each other know when we need to take breaks.

    Puffclaw Trivia: Phoenix Puffclaws can be found in four countries, three continents (well, one is an island... and another is a VERY big island...), and six timezones. We may look soft, cuddly, and kind-hearted. And we are. But watch out! In addition to our world-renowned kindness, we also have some fierce claws that we freely use when we need to protect ourselves and our loved ones. (Well, ok. The claws are really made of puff, but they LOOK fierce!)

    Fly high, Puffclaws!

    Gryffinslytherpuffinclaw!

    LOL!

    Uhh also, I'm pretty clueless about HP, I wasn't allowed to read it growing up. So, I'll figure out my house later tonight on that site when I get in, maybe tomorrow morning if I get in too late. I know a little bit about HP. I will read that series one day, I feel I missed out.

    This sounds like fun, sign me up! I'm a total Slytherin, but the quiz sorted me into Ravenclaw. I always thought the two houses were very similar anyway!

    I had an idea for a name maybe a little late but (I think I'm in a different time-zone to everyone else)
    I was thinking Phoenix Puffclaw Readers or just Phoenix Puffclaws (Phoenix=Bird that rises from the ashes (A fire bird or Lit bird as in simlit :D ) and as you guys seem to be harry potter fans puff from hufflepuff and Claw from Ravenclaw. Just an idea.. Off to get kids ready for school i'll drop by later :)

    Edit: To remove Readers from Name.

    I LOVE the name Phoenix Puffclaw Reading Circle! I imagine a Pokemon trying to be really tough! LOL! Oooh! Maybe we could make a mascot for ourselves! Any artists in the group?

    What do the rest of you think? Is Phoenix Puffclaw a name we can agree on for our Reading Circle?

    @Charliimai I noticed that you're reading Goofy Love! :smiley:

    It won't be one of the readings that's part of the Reading Circle--so if you're reading it for our reading circle, no need to!

    For Reading Circle, I thought I'd just have the circle members read my story Wonder, starting from my next chapter that I post, which is the perfect new starting point. Wonder starts as a Wonder Child Challenge, and last night, I posted the final chapter that's wraps up the challenge. And then it continues with the Wonder Child after the challenge, as a Young Adult. So this is a perfect time to start!

    If anyone wanted to read the back chapters, that would be great! There are about 33 of them, and they're fairly short (500-1200 words, each). If you don't want to read the back chapters, though, I'll provide a synopsis, and then you'll be ready to dive in with Chapter 34.

    :)
