Have you ever been a member of a book club? As a writer I believe it is important for us to constantly be reading. We need to know what is out there. We need to stretch our minds. Enjoy not just the fruits of our own labor but that of others.
I have a new book club which is going to be meeting at Barnes and Noble. Want to start a book club...here are 5 tips for you:
1- look for like minds. Interests can vary but a true love of writing should be a commonality
2- find a convenient location
3- choose a time that the members can dedicate to. share the responsibility of keeping the scheduled dates
4- be respectful. know that everyone will not share the same view points but the real value is in the dialogue
5- read books about book clubs so that you become familiar with the ways to successfully run and host them
Happy reading!
