egao_gakari Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 I just found out about it on Instagram. Anybody a member? Anybody follow the reading plan but not participate in a group? There aren't any groups in my area. I'd love to start a group, but because we are new to the area and because of Covid, I think it'll be difficult to start one this year 😞 I'd love to hear people's thoughts if you have experience with it!

There isn't a group around me either and I'd like to test the waters before trying to start an in-person group where I live. I'd love to! I've never made a Zoom before or organized an online event in general. Any tips how to get started? 1 Quote

I don't know about other virtual meeting rooms but Zoom has a free option but your meetings can only be 40min - then they knock you off. If you get the paid account you can have meetings for as long as you need.  1 Quote
egao_gakari Posted July 14, 2020 Author Posted July 14, 2020 Well, I'm happy to at least make a Zoom for sometime this week and talk in more detail about it with anybody who's interested! If I scheduled it for 8pm EDT this week would that work? I'm flexible-ish on most evenings. Quote
aaplank Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 I'd love to join too! 8 pm EDT would work for me. Quote

Awesome, Thursday or Saturday would work best for me because Friday is DH's birthday. Preference? Quote

Congratulations! That's wonderful 🙂 17 hours ago, Heartwood said: Thursday works for me too. I'm also up for an online discussion group if meeting via Zoom at the same time doesn't work for people. Well let's try Zoom to start, and then if it seems like it won't work, we can try making a discussion board here! I made a meeting: Edit: please PM me for link, safety/privacy reasons Edited July 16, 2020 by egao_gakari 1 1 Quote
Moonhawk Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 YES!* *maybe oh man oh man I want to join but that's 5pm on my side and my life is unpredictable at that time of day. Will see what I can do tho! Fingers crossed! Quote
PrincessMommy Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 @egao_gakari - this is a public forum. I don't know if I'd put that information out for just about anyone (ANYONE) to see. Maybe ask people to PM you the information.  1 Quote
egao_gakari Posted July 16, 2020 Author Posted July 16, 2020 Hmm, good point. I figured it's not a commonly-used forum like Reddit so it would be OK, but I'll edit it out. Quote
