It's not as high-traffic as it used to be. It's just like any other list in
that it runs in cycles, I suppose. Sometimes, it just about snows you under,
and sometimes, you only get a few messages a day from there, if that. Right
now, only a few messages a day seem to be coming through usually. Take care.

Dear E,
The Reading Club for the Blind is a yahoo e mail group of blind readers who
discuss books of any kind. A major reason it was originally formed is that
at that time it was nearly impossible for blind people to get books the
local clubs were reading. ON that list, people often give the source of the
books they are talking about.
It changes as time goes by, as most lists do, but I really enjoyed the
group. Many people write reviews of books they've just read. Certain topics
surface and resurface, like What are you reading right now, where do you
read, what was your first talking or braille book, favorite childhood books,
Bookshare, Audible dot com, etc. Sometimes they get going on favorite
authors or series like The Little House books, Harry Potter, LOTR, The
Alphabet Series, etc. . After you've been a member for a while you begin to
get a feel for the lister's taste so you can scroll through the messages and
look for reader's posts who have a lot in common with you. Opinions are
freely expressed. One reader's treasure is another's trash. Almost all
genres are covered SF, mystery/suspense, memoir, classics, Christian
fiction, best sellers, etc. When I was a member it was a very friendly
group, sometimes going off topic. Several people formed friendships there
which they've sustained off list. When I unsubscribed it was quite high
traffic. I am so immersed in validating, I didn't have the time it
deserved. It's a great place to send the long synopses of the books you've
validated which have been approved. The list enjoys the reviews and it
attracts new members to Bookshare.

If I got it wrong, Shannon, Natalie, Amber, Julie Linda or Ernie can correct
me.
Always with love,
