Welcome to the China Club!!!

This blog post is submitted for the approval of the New Midnight Society…

As you can see, this is obviously not the China Club. It's the NMS blog, dummies. And as President of the NMS and creator of this website, it is my honor and privelege to say: Welcome to the official blog of the New Midnight Society! This is a place for all of us NMSers to get in-depth, down, and dirty talking about the current book, literature in general, maybe post some links, hey, who knows? No porno links though. If you have those and you’re looking to spread them, you’ve come to the wrong place. My email address is, however, posted on this site for you to contact me directly. This is our place to get a dialogue going about the book club. There are already a few hot features on this site, but check back regularly because we’ll be adding exclusive NMS content all the time. And remember, this is a forum for all of us to post, and once I figure out how to let all of you guys do that, well then I’ll pass that information along, but until then, get off my fucking back about it. Anyway, I just thought this would be a fun/good way to take our book club to the next level, get some additional commentary, and also archive some of the work we’ve done. Before long I will be adding the notes from previous meetings in posts so that you can all review our thoughts and scores from books past from the comfort of your own couches, bed, toilets, blackberries while you’re in Cirilla’s or wherever it is that you like to do that type of thing. Actually, maybe we’ll even have one of you guys volunteer to input that data for us. I mean, it would hardly be fit for the president to do that work. Yeah, like the guy in the $3,500 suit is gonna spend his time transferring minutes. The point is, we get some posts, some meeting notes, some links to lit reviews, baby we got a book club blog going! I hope we can all participate in and enjoy this site. Let the fun ensue and bowl us over like pins at the end of an alley where friends are playing and laughing together during the holidays. Welcome to the NMS blog. Please use responsibly.
