I’ve been told by a participant that someone somewhere was asking about how to join.

Readers, come to the Rather Large Rumbelle Read page and you will find the two works submitted so far. (There are more readers participating than writers at the moment.)

Writers, here’s a link to submit, which is also on our main page, but I thought I’d throw it on here, to make things easier. https://rlrumbelleread.tumblr.com/submit

Many thanks to those who went to fics and did the reading and commenting. We always welcome more!

Have given some thought to extending until May 20 if there is enough need to let word spread. I expect most of us will still be under lock and key anyway.

We are all kept fans at this point. Might as well make the most of it and throw open the curtains on a fic we want seen, right?

Author: peacehopeandrats Title: City That Never Sleeps Rating: Teen & Up Location: https://archiveofourown.org/works/19069642/chapters/45300199 Summary: Belle and Rumple are on their way to New York with Gideon, to spend some time settling in to their lives away from Storybrooke and prepare for their long adventure as a family. Rumple has another motive, however, which he tries to keep from Belle until a group of visitors reveal themselves, forcing him to tell the truth about everything.

The Rather Large Rumbelle Read was inspired by an event called the Big Library Read, a book club connected to public library systems world-wide.

Rumbelle Read is basically a book club for fanfic writers.

How it works

Authors share a single work of their choice using the form provided and readers give feedback requested by the author in their post. (You can share a completed work or a work in progress.)

Why we do it

The aim of the event is to encourage readers to leave comments on fics, but it is also meant to inspire writers as they work, wrapping us all up in the creative process together.

When it happens

For now the event is happening from March 20 to April 20, 2020. (See what we did there?) But if it becomes a popular thing, it can pop back up again once or twice more in the year, whenever other writing events are on hiatus. The timing is flexible. You can submit a fic on any day of the Rumbelle Read and readers can comment on as many as they have the time for.

Who can participate

Anyone can post their work for comments and anyone can read. You need to have a tumblr account to post here, but if someone off of tumblr knows someone with an account, work can be submitted through that person as well. If you want to tag your work on A03, you can to that also. We’ll make it up as we go along until it fits just right.
