Hello everyone! As stated before, the deadline for the BotM has now been shifted to be on the last day of every month. Please remember that you may ask for a extension before the due date (30/11/22), if you think you can't complete it by then.

f you were a member (not a seedling) in Bloom 83. Failure to do so will result in a strike.

The BotM is determined by the past four blooms (79, 80, 81, 82) and the previous BotM (in this case, the October BotM). The previous BotM is the most important and, ultimately, what we look at when deciding the next Reviewer of the Month to have their book featured. Your comments must meet our standard requirements and provide adequate feedback to the writer. Remember, only one can be the BotM, so try to make your feedback stand out.

We were very happy with this month's comments. Quite a few of you used the Bloom Bonus questions this month, both in your regular blooms and it also reflected in the BotM. We actually had a hard time narrowing down to who the BotM was going to be. We're glad you're finding the Bloom Bonus helpful in providing feedback of better quality, and we hope you continue to do so. Please let's keep this up in upcoming BotMs and weekly assignments. Following is the breakdown of how we assess your assignments for the BotM.

Example:

Bloom #1 (10% of the point consideration)

Bloom #2 (10% of the point consideration)

Bloom #3 (10% of the point consideration)

Bloom #4 (10% of the point consideration)

Previous BotM (60% of the point consideration)

Without further ado, please give a big round of applause to for being our November Book of the Month winner! Your book,

is the winner for November. Your comments were the most helpful and detailed over the past month. Please PM to claim your November BotM sticker and banner.

You must read 2 chapters of Garden of Light and leave the proper amount of feedback and comments. The requirements are the same as our standard bloom requirements. For Advanced Sunflowers, that means that your requirement is either a 5+ sentence final comment or a 7+ in-line comments with a two sentence final comment for BOTM. Please complete this by November 30th, 2022 and comment "Done" below or you will receive a strike.

You may ask for a 2-day extension if needed, but you must ask before it is due. If you were a member in Bloom 83, this applies to you, otherwise, you do not have to read the BotM for November.
