I think it’s too early I can take care of the group while your gone and announce the BOTMS! Maybe someone else can send out the newsletter but I hope you have a good break.

[Ana, Moderator]

Okay Catherine I hope you have a great break, we’ll take care of the group :)
I can send the newsletter if you want or if you want to wait until the 4th that’s also fine because 3 days is not going to be a huge difference in people joining the BOTMs.

[Catherine (semi active), Co-Founder (inactive)]

Sounds good, thank you so much y'all! Ana, that would be great if you could send out the newsletter:) Can you please send one with the link to December's BOTM poll and one announcing what the BOTMs are?

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

Yes I will link it in the mods chat as well! I can shoot you a message with the link if you need me to.

[Catherine (semi active), Co-Founder (inactive)]

Thank you! I don't need the link, it would just be great if you could broadcast it so that people know that the poll is up if they want to vote:)

[Ana, Moderator]

Okay sounds good, we’ll do that Catherine. We’ll make sure people get notified to vote on the poll :)

[Catherine (semi active), Co-Founder (inactive)]

Thank you! :D

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

I just sent the invites :)

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

Thank you!

[Ana, Moderator]

I just sent the broadcast announcing the winners for the December BOTM so that people can start getting their copies of the books if they want to join in :)

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

Hello ladies! I am going to need someone to send invites to December's BOTM poll.. is anyone available to do that? I want to do it now so we can make sure everyone votes before the crazy Christmas holidays.

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

Ladies here is the BOTM poll that needs invites sent. Please and thank you!

[Ana, Moderator]

I’ll send out the invites in a bit :)

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

@ana thank you!

[Ana, Moderator]

Hey V you named the poll December BOTM instead of January, is it possible to change the name before I send the invites so that people don’t get confused?

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

I am pretty sure I did that but let me check.

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

Yes, I changed the month of December to January already

[Catherine (semi active), Co-Founder (inactive)]

Cool, thanks y'all! I'll send out a broadcast. Also, I was thinking that we could start a challenge sometime in the beginning of January.

[Catherine (semi active), Co-Founder (inactive)]

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

Thank you Ana! I hope you have a wonderful Happy Holidays as well!

[Catherine (semi active), Co-Founder (inactive)]

Thank you, you too, Ana! Happy holidays! :D

[Catherine (semi active), Co-Founder (inactive)]

Hey mods! Happy New Year!! The challenge doc for a January challenge is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1S...

We need a challenge theme/names/team names and could also use more reading/activity prompts, though I was thinking we could also reuse some from last year's winter challenge :P

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

February's BOTM poll has been made, but I need someone else to invite page 7- 13. I invited everyone on page 1-6. Please and thank you!

https://www.goodreads.com/poll/show/3...

[Catherine (semi active), Co-Founder (inactive)]

Thanks V, I'll do that!

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

You’re welcome and thank you for doing this!

[Catherine (semi active), Co-Founder (inactive)]

Hi all! Since it seemed like everyone was busy or didn't see my messages about a winter challenge (I get that the holidays especially are super busy!) and we're already into February, I banged out a winter challenge. I'm going to post it later today, but here it is before I post it: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1S...

Please let me know ASAP if anyone feels like they can't log their team's points or keep their team active. Since a lot of people in challenges sign up and then don't participate, I'm trying to minimize that this challenge, even if it means we have less signups:)

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

I can be a mod for whatever team and yeah I think people have been busy and that’s why the group has been so quiet.

[Ana, Moderator]

Hi thank you Catherine for the challenge and it looks amazing! I can definitely mod a team and I’m looking forward to another reading challenge since it’s been a while :)

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

I agree it’s been a while since we have had one and maybe this will bring the group back to being active!

[Catherine (semi active), Co-Founder (inactive)]

Awesome, thanks y'all! I'll post it now.

[Mackenzie :), Moderator]

It looks great Catherine! I can mod a group if needed as well

[Catherine (semi active), Co-Founder (inactive)]

Yay, thank you!

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

Fe the reading challenge, are we allowing others to log books one day before the challenge or just starting date?

[Ana, Moderator]

I think they should be able to start logging books the day that the challenge starts so that would be tomorrow, February 14th no?

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

I am fine with either but I know past challenges we have let people log books one day before so I just wanted to clarify.

[Catherine (semi active), Co-Founder (inactive)]

Yes, the challenge starts 2/14, so they're able to start logging books then. Thanks for clarifying!

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

Hello ladies!!! I just wanted to warn you guys that sorry I am late on creating the BOTM thread but I am currently sick at the moment and have been sleeping so I am creating this now and I am going to try and be active as much as I can but just thought I would let you all know. I am not ignoring the group just have been sick.

[Catherine (semi active), Co-Founder (inactive)]

Hey V! No worries at all, I hope you feel better soon! I can create it if you'd like, just let me know!

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

I have created it and I will do my best to keep it updated.

[Catherine (semi active), Co-Founder (inactive)]

Great, thanks! :D If you don't update it for a while it's totally fine:)

[Yeehawwlovesbooks, Lead Moderator]

I am gonna try ladies but last night I almost went to er because it was so bad and I am running on 1 hr of sleep so if you guys need me personal message me.

[Catherine (semi active), Co-Founder (inactive)]

😬😞 I'm so sorry V, don't mind about the group at all! Please take care of yourself and your health- the group can certainly wait :( Sending you hugs!!
