Come to Get Lit – Get Lucky! and Date a Hot Writer
Crushing on Lisbeth Salander? Aching for Mr. Darcy? Obsessing over Katniss Everdeen? Fantasizing about Jay Gatsby?
Join Litquake for our first-ever literary singles night! Yes, this is a rare night to meet your fellow word nerds. Bring your buddy (for a $5 discount) and make a new friend— we guarantee you’ll go home with a fun prize, a date, or at least a good story!
Featuring a line up of bookish guests including Alia Volz, former host/producer of Literary Death Match, Litquake brings together the sexiest dorks in the Bay Area for your opportunities to meet a brainy girl in a wool cardigan or a cute boy in horn-rimmed glasses. We’ll provide excellent icebreakers, specialty cocktails, and most importantly, other unmarried folks who share your love of the written word.
The highlight of the evening will be our own spin on the Dating Game (let’s call it the Literary Dating Game), in which lucky contestants vie for a date with one of six hot authors of various ages and preferences. See our list of hotties below, and if you’d like to be a contestant (whether you’re straight, gay, or le***an), email us at [email protected].
