Nowadays it seems all people talk about is war, oligarchs, and vampires. What am I to do, a finely educated, civilized Regalian? I care not for these petty troubles.

This is why I have taken it upon myself to host a weekly bookclub in Regalia. We will analyze some of the finer literature in Aloria, an activity that many brutes these days don't care for. I plan to host it in my house in Regalia, in the afternoon every Friday, however the time and location is subject to change. ((9:00, CST timezone.))

During the bookclub, we would spend about 30 minutes ((5 irl minutes)) reading our book or script of the week, and then we might discuss, interpret, or debate about the topic.

I would like to know if any of you upper class folk would have interest in my book club, as this is all just an idea at the moment. If I can get about 5 to 10 citizens interested in joining the club, I will begin making preparations, and such. A few people have already expressed interest in the idea. Finally, should this club take off, I might ask for small donations, to commission copies of texts that have not been remade yet. Thank you for your time, and I bid you all farewell!

((We might use wiki-roleplay stories, or flash books such as the race book, since it is hard to find 10-20 copies of the same book. However if we get donations I can pay people to make copies, or make some of them myself. I won't ask for donations until this is all set in stone, however. I was just thinking that everyone is at war or getting executed, we need some more mundane and city-like activities going on. :) ))
 
Well, I may be in a war right now, but hey, I need some calming down. If you allow me, I will join.
 
I would like to join this. It seems very interesting, and would be a good thing to spend my time on. :)
 
I agree too much hatred theses days all over Aloria, I would like to assist the first reading if I am able to attemp.
 
((Well since everyone is in different timezones, and I'll admit I just chose the time that is easiest for me xD, we might reconsider the time. Perhaps if this idea really takes off, which it seems to be liked :), maybe i can choose like 4 popular times, and we all vote on them in a poll?))
 
The Weekly Regalian might be able to either donate or sell you copies at a discount when an issue is either outdated or currently in production. Hopefully, due to the snow day I will be receiving tomorrow, I can probably start printing some copies if my reporters finish up the stories.

-_- I'm making a newspaper called Regalian Weekly...
 
Well this is just an idea to see what the community thought. I won't be able to start it up immediately, but I will let you all know when I am.
I am. Already fully educated to the highest point but I may consider this
It's not education, its just fun discussion and debate to utilize our education. I'm not hosting a school xD Also there is no obligation to stay, once the meetings are going on regularly you can attend one and see if you like it, if you don't you never have to come back :). And there's no fee to attend the club or anything.
 
I'd love to join! Timezones will be an issue though, if it's 9:00PM on a Friday CST it will be 1:00PM Saturday, which is normally good for me. If it's the inverse, I'll be sound asleep. I might consider writing some short stories though.
 
Splendid idea, sir. I would be honored if you accepted me into your social club. My appearance may not be endearing, since I am of the undead sort, but I hold civility such as this to be of paramount import. We must hold ourselves as exemplars to the rest of the world, and show them that violence is not the only answer, and Vampires aren't bad if you learn to understand them and set some ground rules with them.

Cheers!
 
I'd really like to be a part of the book club if it is in a decent hour in my time zone I'm definitely in.
 
I'd like to recommend that the meetings take place at the university in the educational district. With how many member you have showing interest, this may be a way to accommodate them all.
