Do you know when the signups will be out? I don't want to miss them :)

[Judith]

A few weeks

[Melissa]

Ok thanks!

WEEKS?! WEEKS?!

You meanie!!!

And here I was about to complain how the teaser was 4 days ago and no signups... and the word used was... WEEKS.

*wails in despair*

[Melindam]

My sentiments exactly, Sonia!

I knew the day would come that I would be powerless to do stuff... *pouts*

[Saar The Book owl]

Not to sound impatient (really not ;) ), but has the September Newsletter been send out?

[Judith]

Yes, it went out 6 days ago to all members unless you have your messages blocked

[Saar The Book owl]

Found it between the pile of messages. Thanks!

[Lauri]

Patience my friend if it starts beginning of October we should hear soon. Or at least I hope so I cannot wait much longer

RL was kind enough to have my awake moments all scrambled up this week, so, I'm pretty sure I can hold it together.

However, my schedule clears on the 20... we better have news by then... I might not control myself enough not to show NBRC a new kind of troublemaking...

[Cat]

yes yes yes! all is progressing nicely and we are on track to open sign ups next week, with the challenge starting 9 October.

If you are looking for distractions, or want to limber up, why not join in the Sep YA BOM starting in a couple of days?
Or check out our many many exciting individual challenges?

[Lauri]

Yaaaaayyyyy! Good to know. I've been the mad stalker on this thread lately. Thanks for the update!

[Melindam]

And I have been the silent stalker, up to now, lol.
Glad to know it's only a few days till signups.

[Christina]

Lmao I'm glad I'm not the only one who's bad at patiently waiting

Nope, not the only one.

[Melissa]

Silent stalker here too…. 5 days and counting…

Definitely not the only one hahaha

[Kaley]

I’ve been on vacation and haven’t been on for a few days and just had an “oh no what if I missed the signups?!” panic moment and logged on right away. 🤣

Glad to see I didn’t miss anything. Looking forward to it though!!

[Donna]

If you're bored, you could always sign up for Theme Wars. I need people to play against Jenny. LOL https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

against Jenny?!

[Jenny]

Or, you could play with me!!!!!!!!!

Hah!

[Donna]

Cat wrote: "against Jenny?!"

Yes, not everyone can be on her team but every other person that signed up wants on her team. How am I supposed to have balanced teams like that? LOL Now I need people to play against her.

Too funny! Jenny, you are just too popular.

Cat, I signed up to be on the same team as you in mod solidarity.

[Jenny]

@Stacey, I planned to ask you and Laura as well, my fellow buddy read buddies!
In fact...in a small break from putting frames together, I will go do so...

[Cat]

Yay Judith! Mod power!

[Christina]

I'd sign up if I were only slightly interested in vampires, werewolves or zombies 😅

[Donna]

Christina, check back for November sign ups. I promise there will be no vampires, werewolves or zombies.

[Lexi]

SO will November’s themes be settler colonialism, smallpox, racist uncles, and accidents/injuries caused by home deep fryers?

ROFL not quite. Interesting theme ideas, though.

[Judith]

There probably is a racist uncle tag though

[Jenny]

Lexi, what the hell have you been reading?

[Lexi]

I chose them in honor of the US’s Thanksgiving holiday

[Jenny]

Ahh. I just read A People's Future of the United States: Speculative Fiction from 25 Extraordinary Writers, which is composed of a bunch of mainly brilliant short stories. Victor Lavalle, who came up with the idea, based his pitch to the authors on Zinn's A People's History of the United States. I assume you have read that one. Great, sad, important book.

Don't think there are any deep fat fryers in it though.

[🐉 PrinZessBookDragon 👑🌶️]

[Keri]

Former team trouble is still noticing ingredients on books.

Has UNO started already?"

UNO is over in Perks of being a Book Addict and starts in February, but sign ups are open now.

That is so funny.. every time I see the word "vinegar" I have flashbacks.

[Karen ⊰✿, Fiction Aficionado]

Yay! Love that you enjoyed my restaurant rocks

I loved it too! Yes, when I find fish and chips, I usually shout it out.

You couldn't tell by our meal names that Team Trouble had almost too much fun with it :P

[Karen ⊰✿, Fiction Aficionado]

😆 oh yeah, some of those meal names from the teams were gold
