You’re invited to a Murder Mystery Open Mic Night at Book + Bottle!

We encourage you to share anything of your own writing (fiction, poetry, creative nonfiction). Bonus points if you write a murder mystery (or cozy mystery!) for the occasion! We also welcome readers to share an excerpt from their favorite mystery, rather than reading from an original work.

6PM prompt, our sign up sheet will go live in the shop, so be on time to add your name to the list so you can perform!

SPECIAL GUEST BRITTANY RANEW, author of Lion of Fire, will kick off this event with a reading of a Halloween scene from her debut novel!

Readings will go from 6:30PM to 7:30PM, and our shop is open until 9 for you to relax and engage after the event. Each reader will have 5 minutes at the mic.

There will be a raffle to win an Advance Reading Copy book (3 winners). One raffle ticket per drink purchased.

Cost of entry is the purchase of any beverage from our bar. No RSVP needed.
