The Tar Valon Times Takeover

The Tar Valon Times Takeover began in November 2020. During the first week of the month (from November 2020 - December 2021) each membership group at TarValon.Net will be given the opportunity to showcase themselves, their work (inside or outside TarValon.Net), their favourite artists/books/memes, and much much more. The goal of the TVT Takeover is to give groups the opportunity to share a bit of who they are as groups and individuals and present "their" TVT to the readers of the Tar Valon Times, both within TarValon.Net and beyond.
