[stylist] A new list just for book discussions

[vejas]

I guess now that I think about it, I agree with Eve; the 
writers-chat list is meant for writers, not readers.

Alright Robert, I will throw in my two cents.  I think a book 
discussion
is a good idea, but I really think it could and should be a 
seperate thing.
The writers discussion is already very busy at times and it seems 
to be
filled with things to benefit writers trying to write.  A book 
discussion
may be related in a stretch, but I think we need to concentrate 
on our
books, poems, what-have-you and not those of other published 
authors no
matter how great and inspiring they are unless they are giving 
instruction
that would help us.  Just my opinion, but you asked.  Eve Sanchez

 Guys, I'm for whatever boosts our writing.  Creating a new list 
is an easy
 thing to do.  But before you run off and do this --- think about 
it ---
 holding discussions on books is not so "off" topic/purpose from 
what we are
 doing here on STYLIST.  I'm asking this --- why not start it 
here? Each post
 would be clearly labeled.  Starting it here might bring in 
members to that
 thread, and if that traffic were to become too heavy, then we 
could split
 that off.  (Another idea --- the chat list is super slow- use 
it!?! (Again,
 part of me is not liking, losing writing relating posts from 
where most of
 us are, on STYLIST.



 [If we host it on STYLIST- we'd need a moderator for that 
special
 post-type.]



 I wonder how the general population on STYLIST feels about this 
topic? Like
 trying to host that function here on STYLIST?  Hey --- you all 
--- you who
 are reading this post --- what do you feel about hosting it here 
on
 STYLIST?






 (One other super related thought --- if several of you who are 
interested
 in
 this book discussion list, a separate one --- you could hit 
David Andrews
 up
 for the creation of that new list and see what he says? [some 
may think
 that
 by me suggesting this as an option is counter to all that I 
wrote above ---
 but it's not --- I'm for trying new things and giving writers 
options.)
