Welcome to the Members’ Lounge, a growing corner of The Odalisque Letters devoted to connection, community, and the small rituals that make this space feel alive.
Right now, we’re laying the foundations. Over time, this lounge will become a home for announcements, shared moments, playful surprises, and the occasional white-rabbit-led adventure.
(Yes, Rupert will show up from time to time. He tends to wander in when least expected…)
Community Features
This project isn’t just about reading, it’s about belonging. As the community grows, you’ll find:
• Conversations & Comments
Join in after posts, share impressions, ask questions, or follow a thread that resonates.
• Q&A & Ask Miss O Sessions
Submit questions anonymously or publicly and explore topics with nuance and depth.
• Member Interaction
Occasional discussions, chat rooms, prompts, or themed threads for those who enjoy sharing perspectives.
Competitions & Giveaways
These will become a regular feature once membership reaches the right threshold.
You can expect:
- Thoughtful, intimate, or curiosity-driven prizes
- Occasional seasonal surprises
- Rupert-the-White-Rabbit “easter eggs”
- Exclusive perks and playful touches for paid members
Announcements will appear either here or via email.
Future Plans
As this space expands, the Members’ Lounge will evolve to include:
- Curated community discussions
- Occasional live or asynchronous group chats
- Behind-the-scenes glimpses
- Special Rupert sightings and hidden content
- Expanded resources and shared learning spaces
This section will grow organically, slowly, and intentionally, just like the community itself.
News
For updates, announcements, competitions, monthly roundups, and the occasional appearance from Rupert himself, visit the What’s New page. It’s the living noticeboard of The Odalisque Letters, the place where fresh news lands, surprises unfold, and you can keep track of what’s happening across both the website and Substack. If something exciting is brewing, you’ll find it there first.
A Note on Rupert
Rupert the White Rabbit is our unofficial mascot and occasional troublemaker.
He has his own page, but you’ll also spot him in:
• Hidden content
• Clues, teasers, and surprises
• Competitions
• Special edition posts
He appears when he pleases… and usually when you least expect him.
Stay tuned, the best parts of the lounge haven’t been built yet.
Stay curious,
