I know it’s a bit late now but I was wondering if anyone’s still up for helping to organize the January MCU.
We need:
– Important dates
– Monthly playlist
– Threads to check
– CB quotes
– Inspirational quotes
– Book quotes
– Book of the month
– Suggestions for the LMWAY and Advice Column
– A host
I can do Book of the Month. -
Thanks Moon Wolf for setting this up! I was considering putting up myself… 🙂
For LMWAY, we could do, do you enjoy giving gifts versus receiving them, or the other way around?
For Advice, how should we sled down an icy hill? (Or something along those lines)I can do important dates and inspirational quotes
I can also put up January MCU questions. 🙂 (if Amity isn’t doing it)
-
I can do Monthly Playlist, and pick up other items if no one wants them?

I’m just going to post my book recommendation now since I probably won’t have time later.
Willa of the Wood by Robert Beatty, set in the Great Smoky Mountains around 1900, is about a young member of the Faeran, an ancient race of forest people with magical abilities, who steals from humans to please her clan leader but gets hurt and stranded in the human world, forcing her to confront her loyalties, find unexpected allies, and grapple with her loyalty to her people and her growing connection with humans.

Book Quotes:
As my vision went fake, Sam and Hearth helped me leap off the cliff. Because, you know, what are friends for? – The Sword of Summer
He organized his toothpick collection alphabetically (they were all filed under T); he practiced sitting upside-down; he loudly yelled out the name of every animal that ran through their yard (not the type of animal it was, but the actual name he thought it should have, like “Chester,” “Skippy,” or “J.P. McWiggins”). – The Hero’s Guide to Saving Your Kingdom
If a person wants to murder any member if a family, then it is very important that the entire family also be done away with, or the distraught survivors might very well decide to take bloody revenge, or at least make a detailed report at the local police station. – The Fowl Twins
My eyes squeeze shut, blocking out the perpetual swirling of rainbow colors-the mural Mom painted five years ago after finally caving to my pleas. She can read auras, the palette of energy each person emits, which she depicts in one-of-a-kind portraits for her rich and famous clientele. But mine looks nothing like her usual work, and not just because of the sheer scale of it. Normal people have one to two colors in their auras. I have them all.
We don’t know what this means. – SoulmatchIt is natural to doubt your true love when you do not know if he is young or old. – The Last Everafter
