Two Cookie Minimum Reading Series
Ever paid a two drink minimum for mediocre stand-up "comedy?" Fritz Pastry, a European-style bakery in Lakeview, offers a sweeter spin on the standard entertainment fee. The price is two cookies for an evening of readings by top-notch literary pupils from Columbia College's Fiction Writing Program.
Featured readers include:
Jenele Anderson (Grad Advanced Fiction)
Liz Baudler (Advanced Fiction/editor of the Toucan Magazine)
Kate Kirk (Arts, Entertainment and Media Management/writer of Glass Sea zine)
Benny Kumming (Grad Advanced Fiction)
Lauryn Allison Lewis (Advanced Fiction)
Frank Migacz (Advanced Fiction)
John Wawrzaszek (Advanced Fiction/writer of the Muse, the News, and the Noose zine)
Two Cookie Minimum promotes self publishers, new writers, and the Chicago zine scene. While the event is free, donations will be accepted towards the upcoming 2011 Chicago Zine Fest. There should be plenty of opportunity to exchange zines and ideas with other self-published writers and artists who just can't wait until the March fest.
Fritz Pastry is located at 1408 W. Diversey Pkwy (between Southport Ave & Janssen Ave). Two Cookie Minimum Reading starts at 4pm on Saturday, November 27.
