This round will last from Friday C.S.T. till Thursday C.S.T.⚠️
We're adding a new rule to our list of club rules. It's not something that will impact everyone and for the most part, it shouldn't be anything huge to those it does impact but from now on...
Say you are required to read two chapters for another club, in the two chapters you read for that club, we will not accept joint comments with #JAMBC + #OtherClubBC. You must read a third chapter, the one we require for our club, in addition to whatever is asked of you from the other club.
Our reasoning for this is simple, many people join multiple clubs in order to gain more feedback and more reads. If the work is being combined by their partner, they're getting the same number of reads and the same amount of feedback as they would if they were in one club. It defeats the whole purpose of joining more than one. So please, keep this in mind if ever partnered with someone you are also reading in another club.
As we said, this shouldn't be a big issue. Most, if not all, of our members who are in other clubs already do this. So consider it business as usual. Thanks!

This contest will run from run on the official Nanowrimo.org website.
----------------------It's not too late to get started!--------------------
The goal word count will be words! (Or whatever you set it at, is just crazy)
We know that sounds like a lot, but we have faith in you. That's only 1667 words a day, and we are here to encourage you along the way.

When leaving your done comment you MUST tag your admin. Not doing so could earn you a strike and sitting out a round to clear that strike.

We're not trying to be hardasses or mean in any way. But without those tags, your admin could miss your done comment and if they do and you've already been striked/removed from the round, we are not going back into the round to add you. And if you've done this more than once or make it a habit, even if we see your comment, we'll have you sit out a round. A good chunk of you have been in the book club scene long enough to know how this goes, and if you can't make the effort to help us out by tagging, then we won't make the effort to include you in every round. Help us and we'll help you, simple!

On the 27th of October, our end-of-the-month break will start. Remember, this is a good time to edit your books before we jump back into the rounds again!

The QOTW does not go toward your end chapter comment and sentence minimum. To answer the QOTW, you can either attach it to your end chapter comment with the tag #JamQOTW next to it or you can create a separate comment with the tag #JamQOTW. No matter which you choose, the tag must be included so your admin can identify it apart from your end-chapter comment.

Sun God's Corruption
This is the world the gods have turned their backs on. Even these creatures, these holy divine beings, can be overwrought with greed. Amongst themselves, amongst their factions, wars were fought. Wars were lost. Now the power risks falling into the hands of a single God. What would the people do if they knew? Knew that the gates to heaven had been slammed shut. They couldn’t even see the blood pooling beneath their feet. They had to do something, anything, to appease the gods. Rarfu was a city long known for being the center of the world. It was the city where the gods came together, and their Temple's stood amongst each other in the grand state. However, the many temples' priests had grown ignorant to their God's silence, unaware that one by one they were dying off in a war of the Heavens. Cors, the Grand God of the Sun, the father of life, had become corrupt and jealous, wanting to wrench power from all the other gods. Tillia, the Goddess of Magick and Shadow, the only God to be able to stand up against Cors, uses her dying breath to reach out to her temple for help. Knowing that Cors has made his final move to walk amongst the humans, she gives her Essence, the core of her power, to Nethira, young girl of her temple. With her remaining strength, Tillia gives Nethira a single command. To save the balance of power she must appease him. UPDATES TUES/THURS after chapter 5 Cover art by Tumblr User: @pigeon-princess This book features characters that are related to in many ways to my other novel "Grimoire". While both stories are their own stand alone series, Sun God's Corruption will add a good amount of depth to Grimoire, and Grimoire shows the unfoldings of the world that will eventually come from the events in Sun God's Corruption. I reccomend reading them both interchangably.

Try Again
How do you picture the phrase, incapable of dying? Invulnerability? Invincibility? Immortality? Whatever word you choose, it seems like a useful ability to have, right? While others might think it would be great to never die, I think it might just be a curse. Would you choose to be incapable of dying if it meant that every time you were going to die you just restarted your whole life all over again?
