Hi John.

Thanks for your interest in participating in our book club!

It's really very simple and a lot of fun.  On the day of discussion, visit the book club site at: http://www.gothamnetworking.com/goth/index.php/books/

You'll click on "more" under the title ROOM.  There will be a summary of the book and that's where the ONLINE discussion takes place.  Participants post their comments and questions for Emma Donoghue whenever they want - and on that day (March 24th), she'll respond between Noon and 1:00 or so.  She will write her responses online as well.

If you're online during the hour, you can also post any follow up questions or comments you may have in relation to what others are contributing --

It's basically a "virtual" book chat.

The website asks the "poster" to insert a captcha phrase, just like the blog commenters have to do (for security reasons).  The comments are then moderated - and approved by me... I will be moderating the comments as quickly as they are posted.

If you have any questions, let me know!

Look forward to having you join us.

Julie
