Hi! Welcome to The Shorter the Better: The Short Story Reading Club. This club has been going on since Monday, 30 November 2020. Before explaining how this activity works, I would like to make some prior points: -I (=Rosaura) am paying for this club and I treating it as MY club, and all attendees are my GUESTS, except for co-hosts and co-organizers. It's been offered to me monetary help to pay for meetup dues before, and I have rejected it. I want this activity to be as close as possible to a face-to-face conversation and I also want to run it in a certain way, for example, making it free for every potential attendee. None of this is going to change any time soon. -I also follow meetup guidelines: no hate speech allowed, no bullying, no commercial spam. Please read meetup's terms and conditions here. -Me and any co-host or co-organizer reserve all rights in the organisation of this activity. -Me and any co-host or co-organizer reserve the right to refuse service. This is a free activity, and if you want to change how it is run and / or organised, maybe it just means that this activity is not for you. There are other groups on meetup.com, or even consider starting up your own activity so that you can organise things the way you see fit. By all means, please give us a try, and see if you like The Shorter the Better or not. But after some years with the club, it is unlikely that I'll make any big organisational changes. I'm happy with the club as it is. Rant is (sort of) over. Basic working for this activity: This is a book club to all effects. So please, read the short story beforehand. When you attend a meeting, please be ready to participate actively in the conversation. The reason behind it all: I love reading, and I thought about starting up a group focused on short stories. I would like to select short stories from diffe
