Oh I forgot all about the fan days, they've added so many people since I last looked at the site. That would be fun to go I've never been to an event like this though.

Tuscaloosa, AL! I saw someone from Birmingham on here! Anyone else in hot and humid Alabama?

DARN!! Wish I was closer to Austin but, alas, I'm in Houston. Any Houstonians out there???!!!

Living now in Kingston Upon Thames, UK!

Me too!
Me too!

Also I was thinking of creating a little local fan kit of VF stuff for people who get local meetups established, something low-priced but fun to receive if you're having a meetup. Aside from bookmarks, what can we put in that?
I just googled Book Club kits and it suggest discussion notes so maybe notepads ands pens perhaps? You should make party hats too, you know, for funsies haha
Felicia wrote: "Hey everyone! How is this Local forum topic working, is it too scattered?

Maybe do Bookmarks, pens, notepads, maybe a small/med bag of Vaginal Fantasy M&M's :D
I love the idea of "sticking" the more established groups to be able to find the discussion for our local hangouts easier. Alphabetical order would be so much easier, especially for people like me who are traveling using the Goodreads app on a phone. There's no way to sort the discussions, and I've not been able to find the DFW hangout for a couple if days now. Unless its user error, lol!Also love the VF kit idea!

It would also be easier to organize a list that way... the last sticky thread always "sticks" to the very top so to add a new one in any sensible order would mean un- and re-sticking all the threads.
I have one mostly drafted that I've been working on in my spare time that I can post when I get home tomorrow if that's the route we want to take!
I'm in Riverside, California. There aren't really any book clubs that are listed on Goodreads in my area so it would be awesome if others were around to meet up. I'm not terribly social but would go to a meeting for this.

Karina wrote: "I just googled Book Club kits and it suggest discussion notes so maybe notepads ands pens perhaps?

Will they be shippable overseas though? Because I am in Copenhagen, Denmark, and would love a local hangout, but I'm not sure who else is from here xD
Hi guys, I am in the Modesto/Stockton area (about and hour south) California. I am a kindle user as well.
Erin wrote: "Anyone from the Seattle, WA area?"Yes. We met up a few days ago.... we had started another thread it's Bellevue/Seattle but this time we met in Seattle... planning to do it again next month, love to have you!
I'm in St. Louis, Missouri. Anyone else from the Lou? :D
Mod
Yeah thats a really good idea Vicky, list all the established area ones and link to their threads under the area.
I'll figure out what we can do with the starter kits, and yeah overseas if it's small should be ok!
I agree, having one stickied thread with links to the established groups organized by state would be amazing! I'm in southeast Va by the way. ;)
Wow. Really wishing I was still in the Bay Area. Is anyone in the DC-NoVA area by any chance?
Ooh I thought I was the only SE VA person on here! I'm in Norfolk...
Any meetups in Orange County, California? I am in Huntington Beach
I live in Claremont, CA but I am willing to meet up in Orange County

I'm in Claremont (91711) which is close to Ontario. Maybe we can get a group meeting together?
@ Laura, let's do it! There was someone from Westminster on here too...
Tanisha wrote: "Salt Lake City here!"Oh, I wish I still lived near there, it would be awesome to have a meetup on smutty books with the LDS temple looming over us!
Are there any members in the Moscow, ID and Pullman, WA area? Maybe I should print out flyers promoting VF and start posting them on both campuses...

I just want the bookmarks SOOO badly, and shipping to Denmark for 25 pieces from that site that was posted in the Vaginal Fantasy Gear's thread was 106 Dollars, which is INSANE! >_<
I am still new to this group, even if I DID join in June, and I haven't read along with any of the books yet, but Kushiel's and Daughter of the Blood are on my To-read list, I hope that gets me in the door xD
Anything in Chandler, Az (East Valley)?
I don't suppose there's anyone else on their todd who would be keen for an online hangout maybe? I realise that it might be difficult with timezones but it's worth a shot if anyone else is interested.

I'm in Brooklyn too!!! I wonder if we have enough for our own thread now ...
Jennifer wrote: "Anything in Chandler, Az (East Valley)?"Jennifer, we are going to have a meetup in Central Phoenix at Brick @ Arizona Center. I believe we're the only Phoenix-area group thus far.

I'm a little south of Tacoma (Dupont). There has to be more of us!!
