Hello everyone!

I’m looking for someone with a passion for Scottish Lit to become a new moderator of Read Scotland!

You don’t need to live in Scotland or be born in Scotland to be moderator but a liking for Scottish books and a friendly demeanour helps!

2020 has been a strange year for us all and unfortunately I’ve had a lot of personal and family health problems this year too. I don’t want to be maudlin but thought I’d best explain why this has come about. I’ve decided I need a little break from running the group, as lovely as it is. I'm hoping to hand it over to one of you, who will hopefully have some fresh energy and ideas for the group.

I’ll still be around to help if needed, you won’t be on your own. Please message me if you’re interested, got questions or simply want to know more.

Lastly, I sincerely hope you are all well? Sorry I haven’t been about as much as I should have!

Ellen

Group Reads Helper!

I’d really love someone to help me with group reads - otherwise we might not be having any group reads for a while.

What would be involved:
~ Setting up threads. Set up new topics/threads for nominations and a place to discuss the winning books.
~ Creating polls. Create polls out of all the book nominations.
~ Messaging the group. I'll make you a moderator so you can send out messages to inform everyone about nominations, polls, and the winning books.

If you have any questions, comment below or message me.
