Hi all, I run a monthly spoken word event called Writers With Drinks, and it almost always includes a speculative fiction writer. This time around, we're featuring Mary Anne Mohanraj, who founded StrangeHorizons.com and the Speculative Literature Foundation. Plus some other wonderful guests. I hope you can make it!
