Would anyone be interested in joining the moderator team? Damon and I were thinking that an additional two moderators would be a great help especially when neither of us has a lot of time on our hands (as was the case for me in particular last month).
Although it's not necessary, previous experience as a moderator would be an asset, as would leading a group discussion.
The main tasks would be in setting up polls, welcoming new members, opening topics for nominating group reads and for holding those group reads. There may be queries from members (sent via personal message) that would need to be responded to. But that's not all! Maybe you have some ideas to bring to the role and topics for discussion that you would like to raise and lead too.
The main perk as a moderator is that you can add a nickname to your user name (Muad'Dib in my case). You can also join the Goodreads Moderators' Group.
If you are interested in trying out the role, let Damon or myself know in a personal message and we'll get back to you.
