Come party with your pool pals to celebrate a phenomenal first year. We could have drowned. We almost drowned. But we didn’t. And now we’re publishing books! So plan to join us on Dec. 7, from 7-10p at Coffee Beer for a fun-and-casual flash open mic (four mins max per person!), door prizes, and some other fun thangs. Plus, of course, all the coffee and beer you can drink (and wine and hot dogs and cocktails–ask for the Ray-Ray-No-No).

We’re closing out the summer with a poolside reading featuring Laura Gibson, Justin Taylor, Brian Stephen Ellis, and Lydia-Mae! Don’t miss an afternoon of hot dawgs, drinks, saltwater soaking (pool AND hot tub) and excellent readings. Visit our EventBrite link for all the deets. Location sent once we receive Venmo payment to @ryanashley_poolparty ($12 entry / $20 entry + dawg + drink). Just write “Luxury Time” and include your email in the Venmo note and be sure to select the gift/friend option!
