In the Sunflower Writing Circle, a critique-focused book club, members and their books are randomly assigned weekly pairings to read two chapters a week and leave a high level of critique. New assignments are posted on Mondays. All books and people...
Announcement: As you all know, the comment requirements, etc. is based on a point system -- with a Sunflower (member) getting more points or less based on their comments. Those that amass the most points get Book of the Month. This does mean that members who continuously get zeroes for comments that don't meet the basic requirement can be placed on strike and removed from the Circle. Below, we're including our points rubric, you can get a better understanding of what the comment requirements are and stay in the Circle. Note: the BB (bloom bonus) is not included below. Those who do the BB get around 0.5 to 1 point extra, based on the BB.
