    I'd be willing to join or host a new reading circle if we need another. :)

    Thank you for the warm welcome, @CathyTea . It looks like many of the circles are no longer active. I would be interested in joining Phoenix Puffclaws, but I am a beginner and I don't know if my story is that interesting.

    We love all stories! I especially love stories of writers who are just getting started! It's so neat to see people discover how they want to tell their stories, and to watch the writing change through time, so I'm sure I'll find your story especially interesting! Pop on over to our thread anytime you want and introduce yourself!

    I'll also make a plan to update our links on the Puffclaw thread--I've gotten really behind on that. But the New Year is a great time to bring our links up to date, right?

    Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing you on the Puffclaw thread and to reading your story! :)

    @Lotus26 she's ( @CathyTea ) the one who been encouraging me with my writing/rewriting of my Swanson Legacy and I'm on the Puffclaw thread (which is a funny title for it considering that Cathy hasn't read the books or watched the movies)

    Yes! Absolutely! We'll love to have you! Please drop by and introduce yourself!

    I've been a terrible slacker about updating our Puffclaws first post, with the index to stories. I hope to follow through and update it soon!

    We're so happy to have you as a Phoenix Puffclaw, @elinsims !

    Thanks, @CathyTea :) I'll head over there now and introduce myself! By the way, I love your website, it was the first I found when I started trying to find simlit blogs specifically on Wordpress to follow!
  • ShadamiShadami Posts: 4,353 Member
    Cathy definitely has a good one :D nice find!

    Any reading circles looking for a new member? I want to get back into reading and writing again.

    I'm wondering which reading circles are still active, and if anyone is accepting new members. To be a little more specific, I'm interested in other plot driven SimLit, though I'm open to other things. I'd like to get back into reading again, and I like writing and reading plot driven stories the most.

    You might want to check out Banana Drama. I think you'd love @Bugsie2016 's writing . She has a rare insight and depth of world and character. And, of course, Cog is part of that circle, and their writing is not to be missed! I'm sort of on hiatus in that group, but when I pick up Ten Cent Tarot, I'll be more active. You can check the thread to see who else is active.

    I don't see a link for that group, @CathyTea. It sounds great. Can you point me in the right direction?

    Wow... that's cool. I like it! I don't have any currently, but I do have elements of paranormal/supernatural relationships in my stories. I'll definitely pop over and check it out.

    Are you looking for new members? My story "Forever in Time" definitely fits that category.

    I'm looking to revive my once active but now inactive reading circle The Reader's Nook. due to RL and personal issues, members came and went, and I, too, too a bit of a hiatus from the forums. Anyway, I'd love to see it start up again, so I'm putting out a fresh invite for anyone interested in joining a circle. Stories can be illustrated with any Sims game of choice and can be of any format (legacy, paranormal, true-life, romance, etc). If you're looking for a laid-back environment with (hopefully) a weekly discussion get-together, we'd love to have you.

    I'm kind of new here, but I would like to join a reading circle if there are any available. I'm always looking to read new stories, and I just started my own simlit. It's a supernatural drama/mystery with some romance, if there are any spots available.

    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!
