This is a monthly book club for people who love to read Science Fiction and Fantasy.
There are no upcoming Meetups.
This is an attempt to see how many people in San Francisco are as big fantasy novel lovers as I am and if they want to get together once or twice a month to do a book club. Some of my favorite authors are Tolkien, Eddings, Goodkind, Jordan, Butcher, Ann Marston, and my personal fantasy writer god is Guy Gavriel Kay. So, join up if you're interested. I'd love to schedule a first book club meeting sometime in mid February. Ideas for places to meet? A restaurant, coffee shop?
Meet and discuss the books from Vaginal Fantasy Hangout on Geeky and Sundry. We will discuss the books and share our insight into what we liked, what we didn't and what we hope they will pick next as well as share what other things we are reading off the list as well.

Hello fellow meetup-ers! My name is Ryan and I am a 28 year old male living in Rocklin, CA. I have been here over a year and don't really know a whole lot of people in the area, so I figured I would start a club bases on a topic I am interested in and find like minded new people. If you are a Sci-Fi and/or Fantasy lover and would like to join my group I would love to meet you. I am looking to keep the group meeting size down to about 8 people or so to keep things simple. If you are interested pl …

Interested in science fiction / fantasy / video games / vintage MTG / AD&D / having a few drinks / making some friends, and enjoying fellowship of some pure-blooded geeks every couple weeks? How is this different than other local groups? A lot of groups strongly emphasize just games, for instance. There are also groups similar to this in far-away lands, like San Francisco. I want to start a _small_ group of locals who like to get together for a variety of well-rounded geeky activities: scifi mo …
Want to play quidditch? Join this group for more information! This group is for people interested in participating in muggle quidditch anywhere in the Central Valley.

Practice days and times will be established a …

I adore middle-schoolers: kids between the ages of 9 and 12. After years of mentoring middle and high teachers and writing non-fiction, I'm currently working on a contemporary fantasy series for middle-grade girls. What a challenge! The one thing I know for sure is that you cannot hand this special group of readers watered down young adult fiction or 'watered up' chapter books. Would you like to help me--and yourselves--craft the best middle school fiction we can?

CLINE was established to encourage and facilitate the scientific exploration of the intersection of computation, language, information, complexity, and intelligence as they are influenced by, and influence, the process of evolution. Of particular interest to this group is the development of self-evolving systems. The assumption is that apex systems evolve toward greater and greater complexity-handling capacity. Some call this "artificial intelligence," but we have trouble with the term as it: 1 …

This friendly group welcomes you to Japan's rich world of artistic animation. Our focus is limited series, an institution in Japanese late-night television. These are not like American TV shows that just add more episodes until the ratings drop. They are planned as complete stories in 12-26 half-hour episodes, sometimes with just one writer and one director. Like movies, most suck, but some are brilliant. We will be watching the brilliant ones. Japanese TV has four seasons corresponding to the q …
