For the past year we have evolved so much due to the ideas and participation of our members. The Fangreaders Community is a place for all to be able to enjoy the fandom. Feel free to join in as much as you like or just see what is going on. We are happy to hear any ideas or suggestions you may have for projects for the group to enjoy.

Group News
Calling all members who write original works!
The chatroom will be having a series of chats about the original works from our members. There will be advice for self publishing, meeting our authors that have published works, and much much more. Our authors who have published or are posting original works are asked to contact Sephrenia at fangreaderslibrary@gmail.com so that you can have your links and information added to the Fangreaders Library .
One of the best ways for authors to get their works known is by having book bloggers review their works. To kick off our series “ Flying the Nest”, we are happy to welcome Jena, book reviewer and blogger, from Puretexuality as our guest in the Chatroom this Saturday the 10th of March at 8pm GMT (3pm EST).

From Puretexuality :
Go to my home page ( http://puretextuality.com/ ) and there’s a box on the right hand side where you can subscribe to my site. Subscribe and you’re entered. That’s it. No purchase necessary.
The day I hit 500 subscribers I will randomly select one of the e-mail addresses and that person will be the lucky winner of the Kindle Fire.
If I hit 500 subscribers by May 1st, I will include the entire Southern Vampire Mysteries collection in Kindle format – including the new release Deadlocked (released on May 1st)!!!
The Fangreaders Awards
The Fangreaders were very proud to present our Fangreaders Awards for Excellence in SVM/ TB Fanfiction on the 25th of February 2012 on the Fangreaders Hall of Fame site.
We would like to thank all those in the fandom that participated in this celebration of SVM and TB fanfics by voting on the Fangies and were pleasantly surprised to have received 895 voting ballots. This was a group effort to highlight quality writing from the fanfic authors in both the Southern Vampire Mysteries and the True Blood fandoms.

Our Fang Statement
The Fangreaders Community is a group of adult fans of SVM and TB fanfics. It is made up of writers and readers from all over the world. Here, our members can do as much or as little as they like to express their love for our fandom and have fun. Members are free to enjoy the freedom to express themselves in hosting chats, attending chats, recommending projects for the group, suggesting ideas, and much more. We have had members expand the Fangreaders umbrella as seen by our LiveJournal site, Fangreaders library, Hall of Fame, and our forum. Every project under Fangreaders gets the group support with banners on our blogs, mentions on the welcome letter to each new member, Tweets, Facebook postings, advertising from other members and anything else we can use to show our support for each member.
All ideas are welcomed and aided where possible. Our Administration Team are all clearly posted on all our sites and are always available for questions, comments and suggestions. Are there things that some members may not like? Yes, of course there are. We try to make sure that all projects are palpable to a majority of our members. We have been running for over a year and trying to be fair to everyone is not easy but we all continue to try and improve to be an inclusive place for all adult SVM and TB fans.
If a member leaves our group, what do we do with their projects? All members are free to take any project that they did on their own. If the project is shared, all those involved should get together and decide what to do with it. If nothing is said on a particular project from a former member, we feel it fair to take down their projects from our sites so that it will not be perceived as exploitation of their work unless it is discussed otherwise.
In addition, our group helps support contests held by any of our members. We help advertise and make available any of our services to the group of members that are hosting a contest.
Only our third time to have a designated group project, the Fangreaders Awards have been the culmination of months of preparations and a year in the works. Open to any member that wanted to help, we had a panel of 13 volunteers. Many measures were discussed to maintain fairness throughout the whole nomination and voting processes of both the Fangie Ballot and the Panelist’s Choice Award. Decisions were carried if made by a majority of panelists.
Does any one story or any one author represent the Fangreaders community as a whole? No, is the simple answer to that; we are too diverse. Diversity being at the core of our group, we have to learn to tolerate the things we may not like. The Fangreaders do not do anything with malicious intent. We don't infringe upon liberties of others. We respect other's opinions, and we expect the same in return.Our group offers a place for its members to express opinions and be an outlet for creativity in our shared passion for the fandom.
