We’re taking over the patio at El Rio on Tuesday, June 3rd! Come hang out with us. We’ll have typewriters so you can request poems on demand from some of the evening’s readers and perhaps a special guest or two; you’ll also be able to use Quiet Lightning stationary to write your own words (we’re creating stationary just for this show!)… perhaps you’ll come up with some rough gems for our book contest?
We are proud to introduce to you our authors/entertainment for the evening, curated by Kristen Kramer + Sarah Carpenter!

Wanted to see if you felt like hosting me at your event. I type customized poems on a vintage typewriter for guests about everything and anything for them to keep. Have a look at my website, or facebook page to get an idea 🙂
This event looks awesome, I hope to be there either way!
Best,
Ryan
