5/17: Book club “I Cheerfully Refuse”
Sunday 5/17, 5:30-6:30 p.m. Edgewater Books inside Edgewater Public Market No RSVP needed — all are welcome!
From Bookshop.org: Set in a not-too-distant America is the tale of a bereaved and pursued musician embarking under sail on a sentient Lake Superior in search of his departed, deeply beloved, bookselling wife. Rainy, an endearing bear of an Orphean narrator, seeks refuge in the harbors, fogs and remote islands of the inland sea. Encountering lunatic storms and rising corpses from the warming depths, Rainy finds on land an increasingly desperate and illiterate people, a malignant billionaire ruling class, crumbled infrastructure and a lawless society. Amidst the Gulliver-like challenges of life at sea and no safe landings, Rainy is lifted by physical beauty, surprising humor, generous strangers, and an unexpected companion in a young girl who comes aboard. And as his innate guileless nature begins to make an inadvertent rebel of him, Rainy’s private quest for the love of his life grows into something wider and wilder, sweeping up friends and foes alike in his strengthening wake.
5/20: Pitch night
Wednesday 5/20, 7 -9 p.m. Edgewater Books inside Edgewater Public Market No RSVP needed — all are welcome!
The Edgewater Books writing group will meet to to discuss crafting a solid “elevator pitch” for both book/project ideas and ourselves as writers! We will then all craft our own pitches, and practice them with each other. The next time someone asks you “what do you write about?” you’ll be prepared with an articulate and intriguing answer!
