What's special about this book club? We meet in the Midtown area. We are a diverse group of people. If I had to generalize in any way, I think a majority of the attendees are professionals in their 30s, but that is not at all a required demographic; just how it seems to have been turning out. There are just a few of us who come to almost every meeting, otherwise the attendees at each meeting varies a bit. All that is required is an open mind, and a sense of humor always helps. I want to be sure …

The Midtown Booze & Book Club is the book club "for the rest of us". We aim to be a diverse group of readers who gather together for libations and lively discussion. We want to read books which are clever and sometimes funny. Everything from Bukowski to Burroughs (William AND Augusten), from Roach to Reichl, from Nin to well, Miller.

The Joseph Campbell® Foundation's (JCF) Mythological RoundTable® (MRT) groups are gatherings of people drawn together by a deep and abiding interest in all things mythological. Much like the Round Table of yore, it is a place where individual and community come together -- a place to play, plan, create, partake in ritual, and share tales of one's own quest with companions well met. But the Mythological RoundTable® groups do more than just enrich the individual; they also offer the opportunity to …

This is a book club for woman who love to read a wide range of books.

This group has been a god-sent during the hardest breakup of my life and for that I am forever grateful.  However, I am at a better place now and would like to find someone to take over this site; a site that is still needed by many.   If anyone is interested please send me an email and we can talk.  I am no longer hosting any more meetups but the discussion boards are still active and quite interesting and helpful for new members. _______________________________________________________________ …

I am running a Dark Ages Modern Nights Larp game. It has a strong political structure thanks to the work my co-st, my self, and the players have done to make it so. There are slight changes in the game from what the book says happend, like for instance, Tremere are still a bloodline failing to eaten salout, the Giovanni have also failed in their attempts to dominate the cappadotions. most Dark Ages clans are allowed, but need to be discussed, and others need a background.
