《Jam Fest Book Club》📿Round 49📿
Advertisement
If you haven't already seen the announcements on Discord, let this be a reminder, we're changing things up!
📿⏰🧛♂️🍷📿⏰🧛♂️🍷📿⏰🧛♂️🍷
❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️IMPORTANT: MUST READ❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️
As stated above, we're making some changes to the club. Not in the way that you will have to do your reading, though there is a little bonus included with assignments now, but mostly in how us founders and admins will be doing things. These changes are the results from the survey we asked everyone to fill out. We're trying our best to improve the club and provide everyone with a community that we all can be proud of and genuinely find useful. To those of you who did fill out the survey, thank you, and we heard you. Hopefully, these changes can help propel us to a better place where everyone feels like they are benefiting.
1. We are going to start subtracting notes from those who leave bare minimum feedback and/or are late. (This does not include those who request extensions before the deadline hits.)
2. Each round will now be posted in two chapters(or pages), one for announcements, and one for the actual reading groups.
3. We will be leaving a quiz at the top of the second page with three questions regarding the announcements made on the first page. First person (member or admin) who answers all three correctly will be rewarded two music notes, and the second person to answer all three questions correctly will be rewarded one extra music note.
4. We will be offering a "Question of the week" for members to answer in their partners' books and BOTW.
5. Notes will be handed out a little differently now.
-1 note for above and beyond feedback
-1 note for answering the question of the week in both partners' books
-1 note for answering the question of the week in the BOTW.
This gives each member a chance to earn 3 notes per round, 4 or 5 if you include the announcement page quiz.
6. We will be adding new prizes for members to spend their notes on. To see what those prizes are, please check out the "Notes and Prizes" portion of this page.

7. We will be implementing a "break week" at the end of each month to allow members a chance to make edits and just take a breather after receiving a month of feedback. Each break week will be the last Wednesday-Wednesday week of the month, starting next month with the first one being from 5/25 - 6/1 (or 25/5 - 1/6)
📿⏰🧛♂️🍷📿⏰🧛♂️🍷📿⏰🧛♂️🍷
Some minor changes have been made to 1 or 2 reading groups. We apologize for the inconvenience but as new members join, we have to find places for them or create spots for future new members to fill. We're also trying to take into consideration each person's level of writing and feedback.
📿⏰🧛♂️🍷📿⏰🧛♂️🍷📿⏰🧛♂️🍷
If you'd be willing to help or have a few questions about what's expected, please reach out to the founders here or on Discord.
Please give a warm welcome to our newest trial member as they begin their first trial week, .

The Power of Ten: Book One: Sama Rantha, and Book Two: The Far Future
(Author's Note: If you're wondering about the views, it's +1.8 million more on Webnovel, its original home. Updated daily starting Dec. 26, 2018, and continued with Book Three.) Some time ago, a planes-traveling archmage made up a video game to train some people on the planet Earth for the catastrophe he knew was coming. That game was the Power of Ten. The gods seized this opportunity to take the templates of some of those characters, and even their souls, for use in other worlds, and other realms. Sama Rantha is one of those characters, and is going to find out that being a Hagchild and having to survive after your Hag Curse fails to murder you at birth is much, much less fun than setting it as your Race at level One on a gamescreen. Join Sama Rantha on her Road to Ten, and letting her Hagmother know exactly what she thinks of her... ------ Warning: This book starts with a HARD OPEN! It was written as an extension of other stories that have not made it onto the Internet yet for National Novel Writing Month in Nov/2018. Book One/Sama Rantha: A traditionalist LitRPG in the fantasy world vein. The beginning chapters will be heavy with gaming terms and the supporting math as Sama exploits the rules as much as possible, minmaxing her heart out to get one up on the world trying to kill her. The math and rules lawyering tapers off, but are never eliminated, as Sama is going to do everything she can to exploit the rules of reality here and not die, while making sure those responsible for this get exactly what is coming to them... ------ Book Two, The Far Future (starting Ch. 286): The Warp, the final frontier; in the grim darkness of a galaxy far far away, there came a hagchild...QX! Sci-fi/Fantasy/psionics mashup, grimbright clashing with grimdark! Sama is sent into a setting she'd rather not be in, but the heart of a powergamer never says no, even in the crapsack galaxy of the Tellurian Empire. BOOK TWO IS COMPLETE WITH 357 CHAPTERS AS OF 9/2020. ----------- Book Three (updating daily): The Human Race (next Book!) - Urban Fantasy world. Three Power of Ten gamers come together in a world under the Shroud of the Cancer of Death. Whatever might happen when they do, and what might they find there? Book Three is complete with 500 chapters: right here. Book Four: Power of Ten is dumped into the Marvel Universe. Surely there'll be no changes to canon when that happens? A Fanfiction variant, with teeth! Dynamo The Original Sama Stories: Being posted at: over in this location. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Discord link: in zis location is always up if I'm online.

War of Divinities
Heaven is at war!... and the Gods are losing. In a desperate bid to fend off the demons hordes, the Gods, in their infinite wisdom have conscripted mortals to fight. Joe, a 23 year old fresh college graduate had barely finished his shift at the local gas station when the Heavens arrived to conscript him and millions of others to the Empyrean Tower. A place where conscripts are sent to hone their skills in preparations for the darker horrors that await them. Brought to the Halls of Beginnings with only a towel to protect his dignity, Joe must get strong enough to climb the tower or die trying. ***** Authors note ***** WoD is my first attempt at writing. It's a little story I've been mulling over for the better part of six months. It brings together elements of litrpg and progression fantasy with a dash of xianxia. If you enjoy a story where the MC must overcome challenges to become strong then you've come to the right place.

That was until a door opened before him and brought him in a world where even the weakest worm could become a King back in his world. A world where the strongest of thousands, if not millions of worlds gather, where the existence of God Slaying Weapons are treated no better than a wood cutter’s axe. Laughing, Isaac received the notification.

Time Walkers
[IMPORTANT] I'm currently placing this novel on an indefinite hiatus. I want to get back to it, but I just don't really have the time. Also, if I do ever get back to writing this, I'll be rewriting the entire story with better planning and plot. You can read what's published if you want. Just know it stops at a pretty awkward place :/ *** What could you do if you found out you could time travel—no catches and no drawbacks?Go back in time to fix a mistake? Pass the night in a second? Run through the finish line as fast as a car?Damien had the ability to do all this and more, but before he could even learn to control this power, he was introduced to the second temporal dimension. Thrown through several worlds of the multiverse, he finds that in reality, anybody could manipulate time.This is the story of a boy from a world where time travel is only a fantasy, the travels of an adventurer who visited thousands of worlds, and the growth of the first being who obtained control of all time.

OrcFat
I was reincarnated into another world as an orc, but wait, why am I still fat? This story is about a young man named Robert, who in his previous life was by most accounts an average person, with the exception of his terrible luck, coined by him as 'rough day Robert' or 'RDR'. One day he suffers a seemingly non-fatal injury but as his luck would have it he ends up dying regardless. Through this he has a suspicious encounter with an uknown entity that results in what can only be described as a reincarnation to another world. Despite his apprehensiveness he gives the benefit of the doubt to this weird scenario and accepts it, but to his surprise he wakes up in the body of... an orc? Is this just a sick joke or an adventure in disguise? See how Robert overcomes adversity and rewrites his own story with a new life, one hopefully with more luck than the last.
