Hey everyone....
Who's still with me? I was wondering if anyone would want to start meeting via chat or video chat at least once a month, maybe twice a month? Before, when this came up, I was unable to commit to the idea, but now I can. I figured we can talk about the books, see how everyone is doing, and just hang out a bit. I was thinking perhaps a 2 hour block of time? I am in the Eastern Standard Time (EST). Perhaps we could use something simple like Discord to chat (this has both video and voice chat options) or perhaps Zoom? I'm open to any ideas about meeting, or about any platforms to use.
What do you think of this idea?
-Amy

I was leaning toward Discord, as well. Setting up a group server would be easy. But I'll wait to see if I get a few more responses before I set something up there. Is there a good day/time for you?

Laurie Peterson | 33 comments I’m still here! Timing is usually tight for me since I work outside the home during the day and part-time in the evenings when my kid isn’t doing special Olympics or some other activity but I will jump in if possible. I don’t know anything about Discord but I’m sure I can figure it out.

I also work outside the home. I think timing for everyone could be the issue. I was just thinking that if a time was set up then people could make it or not make it; it could be very fluid and no pressure. Discord is really easy to navigate. You'd just have to download the Discord app to your computer or phone/tablet. Then you would make a name for yourself. If I made a group there, I would just invite you to join. You'd join, and you'd be in. Easy.👍

@everyone I'm thinking a Tuesday night or Friday night would work for me. Do either of these days work for you?

Laurie Peterson | 33 comments I’m Eastern time also. Ohio. What time on either of those days? I should be good if it’s after 7 or so.
