No pressure, but if you have any questions feel free to ask us, or you can find the list of admin responsibilities on our admin app page.
We hope to keep growing and ask all of you to on your profiles. (If you're an idol, you can earn rewards for sharing.)

(All commenting rules apply to BOTW as well as your group assignments.)
many things are going on in the world, from Covid to regular everyday stresses, and we understand times are tough. So if you need someone to talk to, please don't hesitate to reach out to any of us on Discord. Furthermore, strike up a conversation with the whole group to help each other stay calm and keep our minds on better subjects, like our stories. Bounce ideas, ask for help with a paragraph, or simply goof off and have a good laugh. Gif war, anyone? The point is, we're all in this together, and there is always one or more of us in discord!
For those of you with Idol status and interested in earning more music notes, we have decided to award an extra music note to those who share the club book on your Wattpad profiles. Only one extra note will be awarded each week for those who do this, so posting it several times within one week will not go towards more notes.
To prove you've shared the book, make sure to tag the club profile so we will receive the notification. Happy sharing, Idols!
Our botw list is getting close to being completely reviewed, with only a handful of idols left to be showcased. Once the list is finished, thanks to our botw/idol lottery, the list will be restarted. So, if you notice someone gets botw who has had it recently, that's the reason why. We don't choose the botw winners ourselves. We run the list of idols through a random number generator that we have in discord. A reminder that only Jam Idols and the admins can be included in the botw lottery. So, if you are NOT an idol/admin and have NOT been botw yet, that's the reason why. We suggest putting in a little more effort to help your fellow jammers and earning Idol status to take part in all our Idol perks.

The Voice of the World
Jason Elric used to be an ordinary college student living in the heart of San Francisco. He had a part time job, he played online games with friends he got along moderately well with, and he earned reasonably good grades. The worst he really had to worry about in life was turning in his coursework on time and not being late to class. Now, though? Now fighting for his life and running from a horde of giant frogs that want to make him their next meal is just another Tuesday. Thanks to a summoning ritual gone terribly right, Jason has found himself trapped in a world eerily similar to the role playing games games he used to play for fun. Unfortunately for the now ex-college student, everything happening around him is terrifyingly real and if he wants to survive, he’ll have to figure out how to exploit the system for his benefit before it’s too late. The Voice of the World is the first part of what is planned to be a multi-book, Isekai LitRPG story with crafting elements, set in the fantasy world known as Verdania. This is my first time posting online for public consumption, so bear with me as I work to find a style that people like. While I may occasionally write scenes that may deal with heavy concepts, expect this story to be primarily light hearted high fantasy. There will be a lot of common fantasy tropes involved, as this story got its start as a simple practice exercise, rather than any plan to actually post it. However, it’s grown on me, so I felt it’s worth sharing after all. Thus, if you’re looking for more serious/original/unusual stories, you might want to look elsewhere. For the rest of you, feel free to leave suggestions, as well as to point out grammar and spelling mistakes; I’ll do my best to make edits to correct them. I do my own editing currently, and it’s easy to miss things when you know what’s supposed to be there, so such call outs are highly encouraged. Content TLDR: No harems, probably no romance (unless it makes sense for the story later on) (it did, eventually), definitely no sex (keeping this PG-13 or close to it), limited profanity. Does/Will contain mixes of magic and technology (think Warhammer, Final Fantasy); copious amounts of blue tables; race, gender, and sexual equality concepts; crafting sequences; and (slightly, but not overbearingly) strong protagonists. If you don’t like these things, go elsewhere instead of downvoting people for content instead of writing quality. Update Time currently varies, due to personal injury, but the goal is 1/week on Wednesdays, with a possible smaller chapter on weekends if time/health permits.

Life exists under Europa’s ice, but there’s doubt in the data.

The novel intertwines perspectives of Earth and under Europa as all struggle for truth. For fifteen years, the Europa Clipper has hinted at life under the ice-shell of Europa. An eccentric mogul, bent on expanding his legacy—funds and launches the first privately funded probe to Jupiter. The robotic submarine can reach the ocean floor and returning by an expertly trained AI. Tensions flare between the United States and China, while cyberattack threatens the project. Meanwhile, Dalton, a self-sabotaging synthetic data engineer, longs to make a name for himself in the scientific community, even at the cost of being infamous. Unknown to Earth, alien society has penetrated up the kilometers of ice, and has long researched ‘Nullworld,’ the mysterious ‘ether’ beyond the ice from which no sonar returns. Tensions in their global society have escalated as their city-state fights with a neighbor whose hydrothermal vent has run cold. Now the military caste is in control, halted all research, and pressed capable scientists and engineers into militia service. The alien scientist must escape and bring back research he hopes will diffuse tensions: the revelation of another water world. This is the second hard sci-fi novel by author Eric Kay (No Lack of Sunshine). It explores issues of data integrity in the age of adversarial information warfare, moving minds away from the brink of war, and experience versus knowledge by proxy.
