Rotating Nominations for 2017/18 Year
As mentioned in the Welcome and General Information thread, sun surfer and I need to know how many people would like to pick up a Rotating Nomination month in the coming year.
Those currently ineligible are fantasyfan, bfisher and me. So first up, could I please have a volunteer for August 2017? It would help us if we could have a nominee as soon as possible, but I shall give you three days before posting the next one. |

Thanks for getting this started, Bookpossum. I didn't want to include this in the other discussion so as not to muddy those waters even more, but if it's okay with you Bookpossum, since I'm usually always around and so can take whichever Rotating month and also since I'm one of those still eligible to volunteer, I'd rather not post to volunteer and instead when and if you reach a month where no one volunteers and the time runs out, you can then slot me in for that month as the last volunteer of the cycle and be done. That way, others who might want to volunteer will have the maximum amount of time to consider volunteering for a month without me jumping in to take the spot.

Just a heads up- I think there's about a day or so left to volunteer for August. If you're considering it, don't hesitate to jump in!

That's wonderful for you to offer to volunteer fantasyfan but unfortunately you're not eligible again just yet as you've already gone this cycle (you were the first of the cycle back in February). I should have been clearer each post on who's already volunteered and thus ineligible. Now that we're up to December the list of people who've already volunteered this cycle are:
fantasyfan, bfisher, Bookpossum, Spinnenmonat and Bookworm_Girl So that means we're still on December 2017- Other than those listed, who would like to volunteer? |

About a day or so left to volunteer for December. This could be it but if you're considering volunteering we'd love to have you!

Alright, we'll wrap it up at that and slot me in as the volunteer for December! This means that our rotating nominations are now set for our upcoming cycle. With three rotating months, that gives us nine other category months for the upcoming year. I'll have the categories nominations thread up soon.
