I was wondering if it might be a good idea to create a sub-board for fiction...? Or perhaps books in general? I've noticed some of you have created a discussion thread for The Discarded Image by C.S. Lewis, and I thought it could be good to gather threads like that in a place of their own. For example, a "What are you reading at the moment"-thread - I know there's one of those over at ODD74 and I personally enjoy checking that out from time to time. Also, reviews, recommendations and similar topics could fit right in there too. Just a suggestion (probably fueled by me getting into the mood of reading again, recently picking up a copy of The Dying Earth by Jack Vance for the first time...)

Sounds good to me, were do all of you think it would be best located?

How about a non-fiction subforum as well? For history, literature, whatever as long as it is relevant to running a campaign or world-building.

I'm still new, but I think these are both great ideas.

Sounds good to me, were do all of you think it would be best located? Thanks, TPD! I think down in the Campaigns & Settings Resources section would be good, since we already got the Art there. Perhaps a section on movies and TV-series could be added too, once we get some discussions going on that. Please have an Exalt yourself for keeping this excellent board alive!

I figure that sub-boards work best if they happen naturally, which is to say that if folks start a lot of threads on a topic I tend to scoop them into a sub-board. Otherwise you get these sub-boards with 2-3 threads that just sit there unused. Just my two coppers.

Good to see that back in the building days of this forum, finarvyn the owner of odd74 was involved and making suggestions.
