Writers’ Do-si-do

Bulletins by Eugenia on Thursday 19 June 2008 at 10:41 am

Date: Saturday, June 21st

Time: 7:00 p.m.

Location: Decima Musa, 1901 W. Loomis (Pilsen)

The Guild Complex is inviting writers to a restaurant in order to find others with whom to form workshops:

All you have to do is prepare a two-minute sound bite ready to blurt out about your writing, plus samples to hand to others with your contact info. We’ll keep you moving around to meet other writers. What happens from there is up to you.

Props to them for providing such a nice service.
