The start of the Holiday Season™ is breathing cold pine and holly down our necks while we're contemplating the colonialist holiday that makes a meal out of oppression. Good thing Write Club Chicago is here to beat the stuffing out of us all. WRITE CLUB: Tryptophan Light Fantastic has a lineup more powerful than Turkey Sweats™ and will gird your heart and head for those family conversations across a table on fire by handing you gasoline and a hug. Fuck a pilgrim, let's have words.

Your lineup:

MAIN (Carly Lauren) v SIDE (Veronica Arreola)

EAT (Jeffrey Gardner) v DRINK (Carmenita Peoples)

FACT (Jennifer Peepas) v FICTION (Lily Be)

Charmingly hosted by Jill Hopkins-Olewnik and vigilantly timekept by Josh Zagoren. Gather round at Gman Tavern on November 21st. 7:30pm. Sponsored by Maplewood Brewery & Distillery. Clean air provided by Clean Air Club. $20 suggested donation. Because artists should get paid, and you should enjoy it.
