Got meetings?
Sunday saw a massive (for us) turnout of browsers and activists to go along with our secret sale. An impromptu community meeting occupied one end of the store while a regional peace group settled in at the other end. Boxes of frontlist sale books were scattered throughout the store during our secret 20% off sale, which continues today.
We were pleased to host TrashForce on Monday. I'm told they want to reserve the 90 minutes just before our Sound Off discussions for their monthly meeting, and it was a delight to meet TF member Geneva Fry. Doesn't TrashForce sound a little like a Saturday morning superhero show?
Tonight is Dessert Night, so remember to skip dessert and join us for a unique treat from 6 to 8 p.m. You'll want to check out our new conversation pit, which we were just able to install before Monday's scheduled meeting.
Sound Off has some exciting news for our Monday night discussion group. You never know what topic will rise to the top, but I have a good guess what next Monday's will be. Look for an announcement following that meeting.
Wednesday we'll be hosting Writers Ink, one of the area's leading writers' groups. Leader Reese Greer tells me they welcome visitors and prospective new members, so I've invited several to this 6 p.m. meeting.
One event that's gaining traction is Friday's store-closing Third Space Night. If you've never experienced "Balderdash: The New Albany Version," you're missing a fun time.
We still haven't induced any local writers to share their works in progress during Rhyme & Reason on Saturdays at 6 p.m., but we've enjoyed our readings from published works. We have new poetry and if no one wishes to perform Saturday, we'll continue our reading/discussion of Voltaire's Candide.
Next Tuesday's Dessert Night will feature an author interview with Jeffersonville's Matthew Striegel at 7, after which Matt will take questions about his new book, Kayraan. This will also serve as the organizational meeting for our science fiction/fantasy reading group.
Later in the month: A travelogue about touring Europe on the cheap and an exhibition of paintings by an outstanding local artist.
