Hey Guys, I have setup our calendar of events to include weekly virtual meetups covering specific genres you guys read and write in. Each genre will roll around every 5 weeks as we have 10 Macro Genres we will be covering. Those Genres are: 1) Non-Fiction 2) Memoir/Biography 3) Mystery/Thriller 4) Science Fiction/Fantasy 5) Literary Fiction 6) Young Adult (YA)/Children's Literature 7) Horror/Supernatural/Paranormal 8) True Crime 9) Historical Fiction 10) Romance Once we get these weekly meetups established and running smoothly, we can then focus on the Regional Virtual Meetups so you guys can build relationships with authors that live in the same region as you. I have the meeting setup on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7:00pm central because I run a transportation company and I cannot Commit to anything earlier than that. Hopefully some brave souls out there will want to step up and become a community leader by co hosting these events with us. Anyways, let see how this goes and then we can build from there!
