:wave: Hi everyone,

  1. I am the founder of @lofibookclub (LFBC) on Wattpad! The title of the book club is LoFi Book Club
  2. We will have a group system where books will be assigned on a rotation depending on how many books are submitted to the pool of books for that week. Currently there are nine members, and submissions will be open until at least four books in total are in the book pool to be assigned. Each member should read two chapters per book assigned.
  3. It’s a weekly schedule, where each week is a new week and rotation of books. If there are not enough books, then we will go back to the same ones but onto the next chapters.
  4. Currently open to all genres.
  5. Yes, mature is acceptable.
  6. Welcome to LFBC everyone, and further rules or clarification can be found in the book for the book club itself :smiley:

Mod told me to advertise here, so here I am! If anyone uses Wattpad and wants to join a club, check this out: https://forum.wackywriters.com/t/read-it-and-weep-book-club-open-for-new-members/3197

Hello everyone! :relaxed:

  1. What is the title of the club?

Fantastic Specimens Book Club

  1. How are books assigned to users?

Each member is assigned two books, one that is the known comment spam book and the other is for you and your partner!

  1. What is the time commitment required?

We give everyone three weeks to complete their assignments, though we definitely allow for more time if that is necessary.

  1. If there is a genre focus, what is it?

This is an all fantasy book club!

  1. Are mature stories acceptable?

Sadly, no.

  1. Anything else users should know?

FSBC used to be a completely forum-based book club that ran on Wattpad Writers before the shutdown. We have moved onto the normal Wattpad site now, and we are back and better than ever!

Do give us a peek! We are @Fantasticspecimens on Wattpad, and we would love to have more members!

Here’s a Link to The Book Club!

Heya :heavy_heart_exclamation::relaxed: (This isn’t exactly a club so I didn’t answer the original questions)

I’m looking for admins/moderators for a new community profile on Wattpad (that isn’t up yet), which will be about helping others, sharing positivity, and being friends for those who need them.

Why and what?

I’m matsku and I’m looking for admins to a community page that revolves around supporting those Wattpad (for now just Wattpad) users that feel like they have no one else than themselves to rely on.

To be honest, most of us go through that at some point in our lives. But the journey is rarely easy, and so I began to wonder if there was be something I could do for those who think they are absolutely alone.

Reality check: I know I can’t save other people, everyone has to fight their own battles, but I can’t help but think if I could support others on their way to self-acceptance and happiness.

What is it exactly?

I have named the draft of the community as Friends&Talks (which again, at first, will be located in Wattpad)

Anyone is allowed to join it because we will be a lot more than just a page that updates a book once a week and accepts new members (or none). The community admins will be interactive with the members, remind them they are appreciated in the community, and be there for them as friends.

Another reality check: I know we can’t be anyone’s therapists and that is not my goal. It wouldn’t be healthy for anyone, and it must be mentioned that if anyone wants professional help, they should consider therapy (for example).

What Admins?

I haven’t done the community page yet, but I have planned most of it. There are still holes I need to cover, but I think I’m ready to “hire” admins.

An admin’s job revolves around helping me manage the community and do the tasks that come with it: it’s a big responsibility and actually a lot more than it sounds, but I’m still planning it all out.

How to be an Admin?

Since this would be a community based on supporting others, I take picking the admins very seriously. Therefore I will interview applicants (if there are any).

The interviews will be private and once I have interviewed everyone interested, I will pick my admins.

But don’t be scared to apply because of the word interview. I will send you through email/Wattpad DM/Discord questions which you can answer at your own pace (well preferably all at once, but you can take your time to read the questions and answer them with time), although I hope you give back the answers in 24 hours after I send the questions. Not necessary, but it’s a wish.

What do I get out of it as an Admin?

Honestly, there’s nothing I can promise except a good feeling for helping those who need it. I’m doing this simply because I want to do more for others, and I hope to find that kind of admins by my side.

If you skimmed that through and are thinking that wow, this super cool person wants to hire me for a super cool job, WITHOUT SALARY :joy:, you’re right.

And for those who think this isn’t your cup of tea, if you have a friend who would think otherwise, please let them know about this.

Ciao! :raised_hands:t3:

Hi everyone! I’m Sarah, and I run the Flexible Book Exchange on wattpad which helps connect writers who are looking for feedback (either constructive or supportive) on their wattpad stories.

  1. What is the title of the club?
    Flexible Book Exchange (our profile name is FlexBookExchange)

  2. How are books assigned to users?
    Nothing is formally assigned as you have full control over how much and which books you read. We have a monthly library of books from our active members. From there, you find a book/books that interests you, tag the author on in the monthly exchange chapter and request to exchange feedback on a number of chapters you’re both comfortable with (up to 5 at a time). If they accept, that’s your ‘assignment’. You can do as many or as few assignments as you like throughout the month. To participate in the following month, all your exchanges must be complete. That makes sure that our club members are active and accountable. We’ve used this system for 2.5 years now and it mostly works well.

  3. What is the time commitment required?
    It depends on you. Each exchange period runs for one month. Some choose to read 1-5 chapters a month. Others with lots have free time have read upwards of 50 (usually in the summer). It’s a flexible format that allows you to be as active as you like or can be. Our exchange periods run from the 1st of the month and assignments are due on the 1st of the next month.
    We are also a drop-in club which means you can participate a month at a time and there’s no obligation to participate in future months or penalties for needing to go on hiatus. We understand life is busy, and we want to offer you a book club space when you’re able to join us. We only ask that you complete the exchanges you’ve agreed to do in the past before returning for a new month.

  4. If there is a genre focus, what is it?
    We are open to all genres (except random stories or those without enough written content to provide feedback). You can specify which genres you prefer to read.

  5. Are mature stories acceptable?
    Yes. Our members indicate whether they are open to mature content and which kind so you’ll know who you can ask to read your mature story.

  6. Anything else users should know?
    There are more detailed instructions of how our club works in the ‘Flexible Book Exchange’ book on the FlexBookExchange profile. Although we run on a monthly schedule, applications are accepted anytime and new members are added in throughout the month. Hope to see you there! :grin:

Hello we are Shut Up and Write Club, a Discord and Wattpad based group which aims to help writers improve their writing through the active discord server, our book clubs and non compulsory assignments.

Books are assigned to members every 7 days and you will be required to read two chapters of your partners book. Here at Shut Up and Write we understand that not everyone will be comfortable with reading mature content which is why we ask that you let us know whether or not you will read it.

For now, is based on just Discord. We have a book club role and room for the activity, very convenient for everyone. We ask your book/genre preferences and if you are comfortable with mature-rated books as well. We try our best to pick a book you would not just have to read but also might enjoy.

7. Other?
The book club is just for Wattpad users, unfortunately, at this moment we don’t accept books from other platforms.
Not sure if I can share the Discord invite so I will leave the link to our Wattpad page, you can find the server invite there

Hello everyone,

I’m Sarah, founder of the FlexBookExchange community. We are opening a new book club this summer focused on partnerships and having your whole book read. There are 3 levels of feedback groups you can join from encouraging inline comments to helpful and encouraging mid-length comments to very detailed constructive dives into each chapter. The level you choose is up to you!

1. What is the title of the club?
The Flexible Book Club

2. How are books assigned to users?
New members share their won’t-read criteria in their application and we match place writers in groups of 3 based on that and book-length when possible. You have a trial week with your two partners to see if your level and the books we assigned you are a good fit. If you tell us they are, we make it a permanent group and you’ll continue reading their books until you’ve reached the end of the chapters available.

3. What is the time commitment required?
There is weekly assigned reading. The amount of time will depend on which group you join. Light and Fun readers read 6 chapters total a week and leave 3 inlines per chapter so that one is the shortest time commitment. Moderate readers read 4 chapters total a week and leave 7+ PC lines (13+on mobile) per chapter. Deep Dive readers read 2 chapters a week and leave 12+ PC lines. From personal experience, deep dive reading would take me between 2-3 hours a week to do thorough reads. The other groupings are probably less than that. We also have options for bonus reading for those who have more time on their hands.

4. If there is a genre focus, what is it?
Open to all genres

5. Are mature stories acceptable?
Yes

6. Anything else users should know?
This is the newest club on our profile. It’s intended for those who are looking for a long-term book club to gain reads on their whole story. If you’re after a book club experience but can’t commit to reading every week or month check out our Flexible Book Exchange club (the ad is higher up in this thread) for a monthly drop-in style club. I have been hosting it for 3 years now (we just celebrated our birthday last month) and we’re always evolving to provide the best experience for our members. We hope to see you around :grin:

Each writer who joins can have their own blogging channel in which they can post all about their own books and writing, or whatever they want (within reason and Discord rules, of course.) We also have a book review channel, critique channel, and more! It’s a quiet server right now, so we are seeking more authors to join so we can start some more activities, like workshops and weekly discussions.
