Come One, Come All (Or Maybe Not)

If you are in the Dayton area and want to see me make a complete fool of myself, come to Books & Company in the Town & Country Shopping Center (Kettering, I believe) at 7:00pm on Wednesday, December 1st. My writers group, Western Ohio Writers Association (WOWA) is holding a Beatnik Café and several of us writers are actually going to stand up in front of whatever crowd appears and read our short stories & poems.

I will be reading my short story “Glorified Brownies.” I hate reading in front of crowds (I hate doing ANYTHING in front of crowds – you should have seen me at a baseball game when I got picked to sing “Wild Thing” – something I still haven’t forgiven my husband for), so I’m sure I won’t be loud and I’ll probably talk fast!

Actually, there will be a short reception in Joe Muggs (inside the store) at 6:00pm, and you’re welcome to join us there. The actually reading will take place from 7:00 to 8:30pm.

If you come because of this blog, please let me know!

I will be there! LOL

I am looking forward to reading! I wrote a childrens story called "Magical Gifts." It is about a sorceress who puts a spell on her childrens Christmas gifts so that if they find them early and get into them before the big day SOMETHING big will happen. ;)

I can't wait to hear your story!!

Hey Stacy, this is Bill from the group. Thanks for the plug for the Beatnik Café! I'll have something to read as well. See you there!

I am hoping to be there, but I'm not reading anything. I had thought my hubby would still be in town to take the little guy to wrestling practice but he went back to Rhode Island yesterday so if I can't find someone else I may have to try and run by for a bit after practice. Good luck with your read aloud!
