"Welcome to RAFO's Sci-Fi & Fantasy message board. It's a place for you to discuss what you're reading - from every genre, whether new or old, crazy or dignified, comforting or mindboggling, here's where you tell us all about it. Share your enthusiasm about a new author or your love for a powerful classic. Let everyone know what you thought of the latest bestseller, or declare your undying adoration for those writers overlooked by the mainstream. In short, make posts and enjoy yourself.
We'll be posting interviews and reviews, as well as running a bi-monthly Book Club. These, of course, are in addition to what you write on the Board. We're also there to keep the peace and ensure that the message board rules are followed - we've got some nifty little nanobots helping us with this, so watch out.
This site is for you, so we want you to tell us what you'd like to see on the Boards. Send a Noteboard to Jacob or Rebekah with any ideas you have for regular segments, or make a suggestion for the bi-monthly Book Club. Let us know who you'd like to talk about.
So go forth and inhabit this brave new world. We're sure you will have fun!"
