Updating the good gathering guide
[WIP] [HELP: pingouin/robin on the FOLLE]
What makes a gathering good?
A question that faeries have tried to answer for ages. Some faeries got so worked up about it that they came up with a guide: The Good Gathering Guide. But 99% of the faeries don't know about it. This is the start of a project to update this guide (it's been 4 years since it was last updated!), and have it widely known and available to anyfaerie on the FOLLE.
Here is the current version of the guide
IMPORTANT: There will be a group reading session during the last week of February where we go over the guide and think about how to revamp it together Please fill in a time that would work for you here. The date and time for the meeting will be posted here and on the FOLLE signal group on Saturday February 21st.
Timeline for the project:
Mid to late February:
- Making the content of the guide known to everyone, gathering opinions and feedback and missing pieces.
- Group reading session last week of the month to have a more involved discussion
2 first weeks of March:
- Gathering the feedback previously accumulated to have a first draft of the updated guide on the FOLLE.
3rd week of March:
- Go over the first draft to affine things: Any section that is too content-rich gets refined so that the general advice is moved to a dedicated book (EX: if the "managing the kitchen" session is too long we make a book about cooking and keep it short in the good gathering guide).
Late March to early April:
- The good gathering guide is shared widely to facilitators and faerie folks. Yippee!!!!!
