Maybe we should put out a poll and ask people when they want to do it next
So for the readathon how would the teams work?

Sorry I sounded like a little kid but I really did like the TBR challenge
Most people want the Lighten TBR Shelf challenge in June, what do you think?
We could incorporate the Pride Month challenge with this as the prompts
That sounds good! What type of prompts relating to that were you thinking? (do you mean do it just with the letters thing?)
And we could also do another set of prompts for people who want something different, or they are a certain religion and they can't do LGBTQ
Ok cool! I'll put up sign ups about a week or so before the challenge would start to give people plenty of time to sign up.
Haha I'm probably not gonna do another spreadsheet tho that was a lot of work
Hey guys!
So one of our members said that they want to do an open writing challenge type thing, where they have the opportunity to write short stories and poems and stuff.
What do you all think?

I think that's a great idea! I think a lot of our members are also writers so I think we will have a good number of participants
Ok cool! I'll make a writing folder. Maybe we could have one thread for writing anything you want, and another with some different prompts and ideas. That way people can choose and if they already have an idea, write about that, but if they need some inspiration they can use a prompt.
I don't know that's just an idea. ;)

We have some more suggestions!
K M Abiduzzaman put three suggestions in the suggestion box thread- https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
I approved the last two, but need you all's thoughts on the first one. It would be kinda hard to do and organize, so I want to know what our other mods think :)

What kind of chats would they be? Like zoom, or what? I don’t think my parents would allow me to do that since I don’t know y’all in person, and I don’t think others parents would either. Maybe ask him what kind of chats he means
Yeah my parents wouldn't let me do zooms either. I guess he just means like a chat on a thread? I'll ask
He said threads can’t justify chatting properly...
Yeah I'm not quite sure what he means. I asked him so I guess we just wait and see.
Natalie wrote: "Yeah I'm not quite sure what he means. I asked him so I guess we just wait and see."LOL when you asked him about the thing, he said he did not mean a zoom meeting. You said nothing about a zoom meeting on that. He's been looking at these conversations😂

Yeah. true.
The website says this 'Moderators only' folder has 65 unique views though there are only 5 moderators. So I am not the only one.
SORRY for the trespassing. :)
So most people said that they want the next TBR shelf challenge in June. Do you want me to set it up? I;m going to do exactly what you did for the April one😂
If you want to that would be great, especially if I'm gonna be running this chat thing and BOTMs :)
If you need any help though just let me know
Alright I did the first part. Is it okay that I locked the rest of the topics so no one gets confused? I'm trying to do it exactly as you did, so I'm gonna wait for prompts to be done and then I'll do the sign up thing, hopefully before June.
Alright, so I deleted anything unrelated to the prompts in the thread. Should I send a broadcast message to everyone tomorrow (because I already used up today's) and clarify what I mean? That'll hopefully solve anything. Or do you want to?
That sounds good! You can do it if you want :)
It'll be fine. If you want, send your message just to me first, then send it to the other members. That way we can make sure it describes it good and doesn't have the possibly of offending anyone.
So I have an idea- maybe we can put a poll with a couple of the prompts I've selected and the top 5 can be the ones we use? So people like the prompts that are picked and participate more
Ooo yessss that's a good idea!!!
Okay so for the readathon we could maybe incorporate prompts into that like the prompt challenge but they would be a little different for example maybe one could be like read a book with the color blue on it or read a book in 5-8 hours and that could be one challenge and we could maybe do a point system where for each challenge you complete you get a certain amount of points to keep it entertaining. What do you guys think? And if you like the idea do you have any challenge ideas?
You could do a readathon for a specific genre. I just finished a readathon in my group, and a lot of the people suggested doing specific themed readathons
That sounds really fun! It's something unique and different so I think everyone will like it. I don't have any specific ideas right now but I will keep on thinking.
Oh yeah so according to the poll, the majority of people seem to want to try and do that monthly chat thingy.
