I've had some questions about the enrollment process. I think the following will help to clear up some of that.
To join the class, go to:
http://shuromance.yuku.com/
1a) If you already have a Yuku password from a different Yuku-run forum, you can use the same one here. Just type in the Username and Password and click LOG IN.
1b) If you don't already have a Yuku account, you will need to create one. To do this, click SIGN UP in the top bar and go through the steps.
2) Once you are logged into your Yuku account, Go to Public Forum from the main SHU-Romance page.
3) Enter the " I want to join the class thread"
4) Make a post in that thread.
That will allow me to add you to the group that can see the actual class stuff.
A copy of the syllabus is also in the Public Forum section, so you can see what you're getting yourself into.
After I've set it so you can get into the private section, you should go to the General Discussion section and find the thread "Links to Purchase Books"
http://shuromance.yuku.com/topic/11/Links-to-Purchase-Books
and order the books, so you can be assured that you'll have them in time.
Feel free to explore the rest of the site and play with it a little bit so you're comfortable.
In order for the class to run smoothly, we do need a few facilitator volunteers. It's not really that much work, especially if a different person will volunteer for each novel. You can find out more about what it entails (and post which book you'd like to volunteer for) here:

You might want to add an avatar picture (I would suggest an actual headshot, so your classmates can put a face to a name). You can do this by clicking your username in the upper left-hand corner (where it says "Welcome {username}!") That will bring up your basic info page, which will show your avatar (or the blue, default avatar). Click on that and it will bring up a page where you can upload your own avatar. Browse your computer to find a suitable avatar picture (again, I'd suggest using an actual headshot) and click UPLOAD.
If you have any other questions, please ask.
