Update: Due to a website glitch, tonight’s workshop is free and open to all

There’s always some 11th-hour glitch in the Matrix that turns your molehill milk-run into a brawl on kung fu mountain.

In this case, that glitch is my website’s Contact Me page. I don’t know where it’s sending messages nowadays, but the Contact is not Me. Thanks to yesterday’s test message—still MIA—even I couldn’t Contact Me.

So, I apologize for my lack of response if you’ve tried to contact me about joining tonight’s writing workshop. My lack of response is due to a lack of receipt.

Due to my late Lack awareness, I’m treating tonight’s workshop like an open house: all are welcome, this session is Free (or, as one of my girlfriends says, “$Free.99”), and the updated details are below.

May this Glitch become a Mob.

A Flash Mob.

A Writing Mob.

I hope to see you tonight!


Pssst, are you busy tonight? If you’re down for a free evening of writerly fun and games, come join me at Tabletop Game Cafe from 7:30-10pm for an intro session with the FUNctional Writers’ Workshop!

We’ll play storytelling games, write together (mmm writing prompts), share our work (optional), and hang out with other writers.
I will bring: Paper, pens, activities, prompts, and a rundown of the Amherst Writers and Artists workshop style we’ll use.

You can also bring: your preferred writing materials, a drink and snack for yourself (the kitchen will be closed), and any friends or family interested in writing (all experience levels welcome).
