We're a bunch of geeks. We watch movies. We also read books, eat, and make fun of said movies. We try to be equal-opportunity geeks, so if you have an interest - please feel free to suggest a meetup. More importantly - if you are willing to host a meetup, please let us know. We have lots of ideas, and very few places to put them into action. Each host can put a limit on guests/movies/food/drink/etc at their own discretion. Activities like bowling and laser tag are also fun, and highly encouraged …

Speculative fiction includes fantasy, horror, and science fiction. I write fusion fantasy. I'm Bets Davies. You can look me up at http://www.fusionfantasy.net/ or my blog at http://betsdavies.blogspot.com/. I'm looking to put together a speculative fiction critique group. The idea is to be specific, but safe in the critiques. Depending on the number of members, a number of members would put up 10-20 pages to be critiqued by all members.

Calling all WHOVIANS in the Ypsi/A2 area! I'd like for us to get together, have parties where we watch and talk Dr. Who! Possibly even getting together to go to conventions, after all next year is the big 5-0 anniversary of Dr. Who!! This group is open to all Whovians regardless of age, gender, etc..

Come to the library at 6 PM on the first Monday of every month and talk about the genre of that evening. Bring a book to use as an example, or just have a book, movie, or even game in mind to talk about. This year long series of informal discussions, moderated by library staff, will lead you to new reading experiences as you learn about hot subgenres. Share your own reading interests, and learn about other peoples.
