Welcome to The WYRLORA Circle

Welcome to The WYRLORA Circle — the online reader community connected to WYRLORA, the author platform and creative home of Dianne M. White.

WYRLORA exists to create and share heartfelt, faith-friendly fiction, Christian-inspired novels, romance, drama, mystery, small-town stories, book updates, reader experiences, behind-the-scenes content, author news, early previews, and future book-related resources.

These terms are the guardrails that help keep The WYRLORA Circle safe, respectful, book-loving, and aligned with the heart of WYRLORA.

1. Who We Are and What These Terms Cover

These Community & Group Terms apply to all online community spaces, reader groups, comment areas, discussion spaces, private groups, forums, chats, live sessions, early reader areas, review groups, membership areas, book clubs, digital reader spaces, and any other community features operated under the WYRLORA brand.

In these terms:

White.

These Community Terms sit alongside our other website and business terms. Where there is any conflict between these Community Terms and the specific terms for a paid product, digital book, course, membership, ARC/reviewer agreement, or purchase, the more specific terms will usually apply first.

2. What The WYRLORA Circle Is For

The WYRLORA Circle is a community space for readers and supporters of WYRLORA books and the wider WYRLORA author platform.

It may include:

• Book news and author updates

• Release announcements

• Behind-the-scenes writing updates

• Sneak peeks and early chapter previews

• Reader discussions

• Character and setting conversations

• Christian fiction and clean fiction conversations

• Book club-style prompts

• Reader polls and feedback opportunities

• Launch team or early reader updates

• Optional review opportunities

• Future book series updates

• Encouragement, conversation, and connection around stories, faith-friendly fiction, hope, redemption, family, love, mystery, courage, and meaningful storytelling

The community exists to bring readers closer to the books, stories, characters, and creative heart of WYRLORA.

It is not intended to be:

• A counselling service

• A crisis support service

• A political debate forum

• A theological argument group

• A church, ministry, Bible college, or pastoral care replacement

• A business networking or advertising group

• A place to promote unrelated products, services, beliefs, causes, or campaigns

• A space for aggressive debate, mocking, harassment, or conflict

WYRLORA is faith-friendly and Christian-inspired in its storytelling values. That means our stories and community may include themes such as faith, forgiveness, family, courage, healing, integrity, redemption, grace, prayer, moral choices, hope, restoration, and the quiet strength of ordinary people.

You do not need to belong to a specific church, denomination, tradition, or background to participate. Readers from different stages of faith, belief, curiosity, or life experience are welcome, provided they are respectful of the Christian and faith-friendly nature of the WYRLORA brand.

3. Who The Community Is For

The WYRLORA Circle is primarily for:

• Readers of WYRLORA books

• Readers interested in The WYRLORA Chronicles and future WYRLORA book series

• Subscribers to the WYRLORA newsletter, book updates, waitlists, early chapter previews, or reader offers

The community is intended for adults aged 18 years and over.

Some WYRLORA books, stories, or themes may include mature life issues such as grief, loss, family conflict, relationships, difficult choices, faith questions, mystery, crime-related storylines, emotional wounds, or personal transformation. While WYRLORA content aims to remain clean, respectful, and faith-friendly, not every topic may be suitable for every reader.

By joining or participating, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to agree to these terms.

We may update these Community Terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the effective date at the top of this page and may provide notice through the website, community portal, email newsletter, eZine, or other reasonable means.

Your continued use of the community after updated terms are posted means you accept the updated terms.

5. The Heart and Values of The WYRLORA Circle

The WYRLORA Circle is built around a simple expectation:

Readers should feel safe, respected, welcomed, and free to enjoy meaningful stories without unnecessary drama, cruelty, or conflict.

Our community values include:

5.1 Faith-friendly conversation

WYRLORA is rooted in Christian-inspired values and faith-friendly storytelling.

Members are welcome to discuss faith themes, prayer, hope, forgiveness, courage, redemption, grace, spiritual growth, and moral questions in a respectful way.

However, this is not a place for:

• Mocking Christianity or sincere faith

• Attacking people for their beliefs

• Aggressive theological arguments

• Blasphemous, deliberately offensive, or hostile content

• Pressuring others to adopt a particular denomination, doctrine, church, political view, or interpretation

• Using faith as a weapon to shame, control, condemn, or belittle others

Faith discussions should be thoughtful, gracious, and respectful.

5.2 Respect for story, creativity, and readers

Books can stir strong emotions. Characters may make choices you disagree with. Stories may include mystery, grief, romance, conflict, danger, secrets, hard truths, or redemption arcs that take time to unfold.

Healthy discussion is welcome.

Cruel, mocking, aggressive, demeaning, or author-bashing behaviour is not.

You may discuss books, characters, themes, storylines, preferences, and opinions respectfully. You may not attack the author, other readers, reviewers, community members, or WYRLORA staff.

5.3 Clean and respectful communication

The WYRLORA Circle is intended to be a clean, tasteful, respectful space.

Please keep your language, images, humour, and discussion appropriate for a faith-friendly reader community.

This means no explicit sexual content, graphic images, pornography, crude jokes, lewd comments, vulgar attacks, or content that would be unsuitable in a respectful Christian/family-friendly setting.

5.4 Kindness over conflict

The goal of this community is not to win arguments.

The goal is to connect over stories, characters, books, faith-friendly themes, meaningful conversation, and shared enjoyment of WYRLORA’s creative work.

Disagreement is allowed.

Disrespect is not.

6. Community Code of Conduct

To protect the heart of The WYRLORA Circle, all members must follow this code of conduct.

6.1 Be kind and respectful

You agree to:

• Speak to others with basic decency and respect.

• Disagree without attacking, mocking, shaming, or belittling.

• Remember that tone can be easily misunderstood online.

• Give people reasonable grace before assuming the worst.

• Keep conversations constructive, thoughtful, and appropriate.

You must not:

• Bully, harass, threaten, ridicule, or shame others.

• Start or encourage pile-ons.

• Use name-calling, insults, or degrading language.

• Publicly shame another member, reader, reviewer, author, or staff member.

• Create drama for entertainment or attention.

6.2 No hate speech, slurs, or discrimination

You must not post, promote, share, or encourage content that attacks, demeans, threatens, or dehumanises a person or group based on:

• Race

• Ethnicity

• Nationality

• Religion

• Sex

• Gender

• Sexual orientation

• Age

• Disability

• Family status

• Marital status

• Pregnancy

• Political belief

• Cultural background

• Any other protected or personal characteristic

WYRLORA is a faith-friendly and values-led space, but that never justifies cruelty, slurs, threats, harassment, or dehumanising language.

6.3 No harassment, stalking, or intimidation

You must not:

• Harass, threaten, stalk, or intimidate another member.

• Repeatedly contact someone who has asked you to stop.

• Send unwanted private messages, DMs, emails, or contact requests.

• Pressure another member for friendship, personal details, reviews, purchases, prayer, private conversation, or personal support.

• Publicly shame or target another person.

• Attempt to follow members across platforms in a way that makes them feel unsafe.

If another member’s behaviour makes you uncomfortable, please report it to WYRLORA rather than engaging in a public argument.

6.4 No explicit, graphic, or adult content

You must not post, upload, link to, or describe:

• Pornography

• Nudity

• Explicit sexual content

• Sexually suggestive images or videos

• Graphic sexual descriptions

• Lewd jokes or crude sexual humour

• Fetish content

• Explicit romance scenes

• Graphic violence, gore, or disturbing imagery

WYRLORA may write about love, marriage, attraction, emotional intimacy, grief, mystery, secrets, danger, betrayal, redemption, or difficult life situations, but the community must remain clean, respectful, and suitable for a faith-friendly reader environment.

6.5 No spam, scams, or unauthorised promotion

You must not use The WYRLORA Circle to promote unrelated products, services, causes, groups, platforms, businesses, mailing lists, offers, affiliate links, referral codes, discounts, giveaways, or opportunities unless WYRLORA has given clear permission.

This includes:

• Posting unsolicited business promotions

• Dropping links to your own products or services

• Promoting unrelated books, courses, coaching, groups, podcasts, websites, newsletters, or events

• Sending mass DMs to members

• Sharing affiliate links without permission

• Posting referral codes or discount codes

• Promoting MLM, network marketing, crypto, investment, gambling, or “get rich quick” schemes

• Posting chain messages

• Using the community to harvest email addresses, contacts, or followers

• Scraping member information for marketing purposes

If WYRLORA creates specific promotional threads, partner opportunities, directories, author features, reader recommendations, or approved sharing spaces in the future, those areas will have their own rules.

6.6 No political campaigning or ideological fighting

WYRLORA may include themes such as freedom, conscience, moral courage, family, faith, justice, truth, community, and personal conviction.

However, The WYRLORA Circle is not a political campaign group.

You must not use the community to:

• Campaign for political parties or candidates

• Pressure members into political activism

• Start hostile ideological debates

• Shame members for their political beliefs

• Post inflammatory political content designed to provoke conflict

• Use the group as a platform for culture-war arguments

Thoughtful discussion of story themes is welcome.

Aggressive campaigning, political fighting, or inflammatory posting is not.

6.7 No illegal, unsafe, or harmful content

You must not post, share, encourage, or request content that:

• Is illegal

• Encourages illegal activity

• Promotes fraud, scams, theft, piracy, or deception

• Encourages violence, self-harm, or harm to others

• Contains threats

• Contains malware, spyware, viruses, or harmful code

• Shares instructions for criminal activity

• Encourages abuse, exploitation, or neglect

• Breaches another person’s privacy or legal rights

We may remove such content and, where appropriate or required, report it to relevant authorities.

7. Book Discussion, Spoilers, and Reader Etiquette

Because The WYRLORA Circle is connected to books, fiction series, characters, mysteries, romance arcs, secrets, reveals, and future releases, we ask all members to be thoughtful with spoilers and story discussion.

7.1 Use spoiler warnings

Please clearly mark spoilers before discussing major plot details, endings, twists, secrets, deaths, relationship outcomes, mystery reveals, surprise character connections, or unreleased story information.

A simple format is:

SPOILER WARNING: Book Title / Chapter / Topic

Then leave space before writing the spoiler.

7.2 Do not spoil new releases too early

For newly released WYRLORA books, please avoid posting major spoilers in public or general community areas during the early release period unless WYRLORA has created a specific spoiler-friendly thread or discussion space.

7.3 Respect different reading speeds

Not everyone reads at the same pace.

Some readers may be reading the first three chapters. Others may have purchased the full book. Others may be waiting for print, Kindle, audiobook, or future instalments.

Please be considerate.

7.4 Do not pressure others about story opinions

Readers may love different characters, dislike certain choices, prefer different romances, or respond differently to themes.

You may share your own opinion respectfully.

You may not attack, mock, shame, or belittle another reader because they interpreted a book, character, romance, mystery, or theme differently from you.

8. Early Chapters, Preview Content, ARC Copies, and Review Copies

From time to time, WYRLORA may provide selected readers with early access, preview chapters, advance reader copies, review copies, beta content, launch team content, or behind-the-scenes material.

This may include:

• Early digital book access

• Pre-release excerpts

• Draft chapters

• Character notes

• Setting information

• Reader surveys

• Share it in another group

• Share plot details publicly before release

• Claim any part of it as your own work

Receiving early access does not give you ownership of the content.

WYRLORA may remove early reader, ARC, review, or launch team access at any time if we believe the content has been misused, shared without permission, or treated in a way that harms the author, the readers, the launch, or the creative work.

9. Reviews, Testimonials, and Reader Feedback

WYRLORA may invite readers to leave reviews, testimonials, comments, feedback, survey responses, or reader reactions.

You are welcome to share honest, respectful feedback.

However:

• Reviews must be your genuine opinion.

WYRLORA may use short excerpts from publicly posted reviews, comments, testimonials, emails, survey responses, or reader feedback for promotional purposes, unless you request otherwise.

Where possible and appropriate, we will use your first name, initials, username, general location, or platform name only, unless you give permission for more identifying details to be used.

We will not deliberately misrepresent your words or knowingly take your feedback out of context.

21. Community Moderation

To protect The WYRLORA Circle, WYRLORA’s creative work, and our readers, we reserve the right to moderate community spaces.

This means we may, at our discretion:

• Monitor posts, comments, replies, uploads, reviews, discussions, and member activity

• Edit, hide, decline, or remove content

• Move content to a more appropriate space

• Close comments or discussion threads

• Turn off replies

• Issue reminders or warnings

• Restrict a member’s posting ability

• Temporarily mute a member

• Suspend access

• Remove a member from a group or community space

• Block a member from WYRLORA platforms

• Cancel community access where necessary

• Report illegal or threatening behaviour where appropriate or required

We may moderate content that breaches these terms or that we consider unsuitable, unsafe, unkind, unlawful, misleading, harmful, spammy, overly promotional, off-topic, disruptive, or inconsistent with the purpose of the community.

We are not obligated to monitor every post or interaction.

Failure to remove particular content does not mean we approve it.

Moderation decisions are made to protect the community, the author, the creative work, and the reader experience.

22. Removal, Suspension, and Termination

We may remove, suspend, restrict, or terminate your access to The WYRLORA Circle or related WYRLORA spaces if we believe you have:

• Harassed another member

• Posted hateful, explicit, illegal, harmful, or abusive content

• Used the community for spam, scams, or unauthorised promotion

• Created safety, privacy, legal, or reputational risks

• Attempted to bypass access restrictions

• Shared login details

• Misused early reader, review, or ARC access

• Behaved in a way that undermines the purpose or safety of the community

Removal may occur with or without prior warning, depending on the seriousness of the situation.

Where a paid product, subscription, or membership is involved, access, refunds, and cancellations will be handled according to the relevant purchase, refund, membership, or consumer law terms.

We are not responsible for any loss, inconvenience, disappointment, reputational impact, or other consequence resulting from moderation or access decisions made in accordance with these terms, except where such exclusion is not permitted by law.
