Readerville.com—an online forum for fiction writers and readers—has formed a Writers Reading Group. Author M. J. Rose, who represents the group, has selected six books about writing that they will discuss over the next six months. The first pick is Ayn Rand's The Art of Fiction.

The discussion of the book begins August 1, and is open to the public. The Web site requires visitors to log in (free) if they wish to post, but no login is required to simply view and read the discussion. The general address of the site is www.readerville.com. The specific address of the book discussion is http://www.readerville.com/WebX?14@62.dgWVaE73lnL.59@.f207484/0.
