[close] Welcome to It's Personal: a collective gathering of souls, each equipped with their own thoughts, desires, fears, dreams, and secrets. It’s Personal is an outlet of sorts: a place to rant, rave, create, share, fill with gifs, quotes, poems, writing and things that are…well, for lack of a better term, personal. So have at it, create a thread and fill it with whatever. In this world, you might just find you have more in common with others than you thought.

[close] In this book club we read a variety of books. Most of it will be Young Adult, but we might add some literature or non-fiction here and there. If you're interested in reading fiction books with (for the most part) teens and discussing them, join our club!

[close] In an attempt to continue reading amazing works and staying connected with each other and journalism, we have created this page as a means of sharing and discussing some amazing reading with each other. The beginning of the list is some books recommended by Jamilah King a dope af journalist at Mic.com but please add books/work you want to read and think others would enjoy too.

[close] “Vrijheid is de vrijheid om te zeggen dat twee plus twee vier is.” George Orwell, 1984 Bij ‘Big Brother’ denk je vast aan de realityshow waar deelnemers 24/7 door camera’s in de gaten werden gehouden. Of het idee dat we onze privacy beetje bij beetje opgeven. Misschien denk je aan de schrijver George Orwell, die met dit krachtige idee op de proppen kwam. Orwell was – en is – niet de enige die filosofeerde over mensenrechten, vrijheid en aanverwante onderwerpen in boekvorm. Orwell en andere schrijvers laten zien: Vrijheid ìs onze verbeelding. Amnesty leest…. Wie leest neemt tijdelijk een andere positie in die nieuwe gezichtspunten kan bieden. Wil je meer kennis over mensenrechten en mensenrechtenthema’s eens op een andere manier bekijken? Doe dan mee met Amnesty Reads. Aan de hand van de thema’s gaan we debatteren, spreken we schrijvers, hoogleraren, maar vooral willen we jou horen. Want een boekenclub maak je met de lezers, niet andersom. Hoe denk jij over vrijheid? Wat gaan we doen? Eens in de twee maanden kiezen we een boek waarin een of meerdere mensenrechtenthema’s naar voren komen. Ons hoofdplatform is Goodreads. We kiezen boeken die in het Nederlands zijn vertaald, makkelijk te verkrijgen en goed toegankelijk zijn (en nee, ook geen 800 pagina’s!). Voor de lange termijn hebben we plannen om een Amnesty Reads-dag te organiseren met een mooi programma. Voor inspiratie, motivatie en contact volg Amnesty Reads op Instagram. Happy reading!

[close] This is a place for people who love Africa and a way, therefore, of sharing great African reads. To do this, we operate the Tour d'Afrique, which takes us across Africa in alphabetical order. We visit each country for a two months stopover where we discuss a book written by an author from that country or about the country (depending on what we can find). Feel free to join in or if you want to find out more on how the tour operates, check out this thread! Current banner photo: Sunrise on Dune 45, Namib Desert by Dietmar Temps

[close] Can't remember the title of a book you read? Come search our archives and shelves. If you don’t find it there, post a description on our Unsolved message board and we can try to help each other out. 1. Please provide plot details (no spoilers) and the genre of the book you’re looking for in the Topic header - not something vague like "Help! can't remember this book". Someone is more likely to recognize your book. 2. Don't create duplicates of the same request. Bump your topic/thread every 30+ days (by posting a comment) -- or sooner if you remember more information. 3. Tell us what year you read or heard about the book. A range of years is fine. You can also mention when you think the book was published. 4. If you're searching for more than one book (or book series), start a new topic for each book/series. *** Click this link to CREATE A NEW BOOK REQUEST. *** 5. After posting a request, please come back and check if another member has found it. Check both the Unsolved and Possibly Solved folders. If you've found your book, post a comment to let us know. You can add "Solved" to your Topic header and move it to a Solved folder by clicking "Edit" on the desktop (not mobile) website -- or a Moderator will assist. 6. If you're helping someone find a book, please give suggestions only when you recognize the book or have a good reason to believe it's the book. 7. Please don't delete your original post with the request. This information may help others looking for the same book in the future. 8. To follow a topic/thread, click the "Notify me when people comment" link (on the full desktop website) or the "Topic Notification Settings" (on the mobile app) near the bottom of the page. Thanks for your help. icon by http://bibliophile1887.livejournal.com

[close] I began this group in January 2015 to support fellow indie authors by featuring them on my website blog. Since then it has turned into a great resource of helpful tips, marketing resources, and just overall support for all indie authors. You're welcome to join our group as long as you contribute and are encouraging in your comments. Please note, in order to fully enjoy our group and make it the best Self Publishing Resource that it can be, we ask that you give as much as you take. If you want your books to be read, read other Indie Author books. If you want help, give help in return. This is how Support for Indie Authors can be the Ultimate Self Publishing Resource and Indie Author Support Group. Please take a moment to read through our Read Me Topics under each Folder Category in order to get a better grasp of our guidelines and where you should you post your questions/comments/etc. Thank you all and Welcome to Support for Indie Authors! Don’t forget to sign up for our newsletter by visiting http://www.supportindieauthors.com/subscribe/ Sincerely, Ann Livi Andrews *Riley stole this from GG because everyone asks this question.* Bookwhack: Think about bookwhack as bird droppings. Everyone is having a picnic. The sun is shining. The food is good. The conversation is flowing. Then, suddenly a bird flies down and leaves a dropping, ruining the day for everyone. Bookwhacking is doing the same with your book. Going into threads and dropping your book name or cover or blurb without being invited to do so. You fly over, drop the bomb. and leave. Sometimes you stay to add a short comment but the sole purpose of it is to make people think you actually had something to say. In other words, it's finding any reason to push your book in the face of people who were not expecting it.
