Books and Beer #3


Join us for our THIRD Books and Beer event at Summits Wayside Tavern in Snellville, GA.

This is a great opportunity to sell books, connect with an audience, and help raise money for the local food co-op.  In our previous two events, we have raised over $200 to help the food pantry, and we had a blast doing it.

Our next event is planned for Saturday January 12 2019 at 7:00PM.  The Facebook invitation is here: https://www.facebook.com/events/250941855610182/

We also have some (rough cut) video from our September 2018 event here:

Summits Wayside Tavern, in the back room behind the taps.
Address is 3334 Stone Mountain Hwy, Snellville, GA 30078.


When is it?
January 12, 2019 at 7:00pm.  We'll go for a couple of hours unless lots of readers show up.
We'll fit everyone in.


Is there a deadline to signup?
No.  But the venue is small, and we might have to turn people away.


Who can read?

1. Writers who donate books to the raffle read first.

2. Open Mic


How does this event benefit the local food co-op?
Writers should bring two copies (or more) for donation to the raffle.
All proceeds from the raffle benefit the local co-op.


Can I sell copies of my glorious work?
Hell yes!  Bring a bunch of copies to sell.  Bring a pen and be prepared to autograph copies.
Be prepared to sign the writhing body parts of your new groupies.  Be prepared for fame and fortune.


Can I invite others?
Absolutely.  Bring friends, family, emotional support peacocks, whoever.


I write songs, not books.  Can I participate?
Yes!  The venue is small, so don't bring lots of elaborate equipment.


I write non-fiction.  Can I participate?
Yes!


I write neo-nazi manifestos that degrade others that don't look or think like me.  Can I participate?
No.  You're a dick.


What is the schedule of events?
I cordially despise schedules.  I have too many in my life already.  But, if you insist, here's a vague outline:

7:00 - sign in and buy a beer; meet-and-greet
7:30 - group 1 will start reading
?:?? - raffle drawing for books from group 1 writers
?:?? - open mic
