WELCOME to the Astania Book Club: Kitsune Guild!

Who are we?

We are a book club dedicated to supporting participants of the Open Novella Contest! Share your work in progress to gain reads, constructive criticism, and general feedback. Members get to decide which books they want to read, ensuring that your readers are genuinely interested in your story, and allowing you a stress-free environment while you work hard on your entry!

This club will run from the beginning of February to the end of June. For additional book clubs, please see our profile for the Phoenix Guild and Unicorn Guild!

RULES

1) You can choose which books to read!

2) Submitted books must be written for the Open Novella Contest 2024. See the "Frequently Asked Questions" chapter for details.

3) You do not have to partner with another member, but you can if you wish.

4) The minimum reading requirement is 3 narrative chapters of another member's story per month with at least 4 quality comments per chapter. Quality comments are thoughtful and insightful comments. Non-narrative chapters such as author's notes, character aesthetics, and content warnings do not count. Again, you can choose which book to read.

5) We do not accept stories that cover potentially sensitive or unethical subjects. Please see a list of examples below.

- Any stories that do not abide by Wattpad's Terms of Service and Content Guidelines.

- Glorification of unethical practices. This may include age gap relationships specifically between an adult and a minor (under 18 years old), non-consensual acts, stalking, sex trafficking/slavery, etc. Please note that for the majority of these, excluding age gap relationships between an adult and a minor, it is allowed to be demonstrated in your book as long as it is not in a positive light. However, please provide relevant trigger warnings.

- Any books written with the use of AI. This does not include smaller things such as outlines; rather, full sentences, paragraphs, or chapters written by AI.

6) You can enter up to 3 books, but you will need to do 3 times the regular assignments. Similarly, if you enter 2 books, you will need to do 2 times the regular assignments. For example, if you enter 3 books, you will have to read 9 chapters and leave 4 comments on each chapter. If you enter 2 books, you will have to read 6 chapters and leave 4 comments on each chapter. If you enter more than 1 book, please ensure you can complete your assignments on time.

7) The password to the form is your favorite fantasy character.

8) Add this book to your private library. If you don't have it, you will miss important updates. Also, it is recommended to follow the community account (AstaniaCommunity) so you don't miss important updates announced on our message board.
