Blah Blah Blah Open Mic

Hosted by Wordier Than Thou

This open mic is anything but blah!

Bring your finest prose or a true story to share. Everyone gets 7 minutes on the stage to present their work.

The Open Mic Rules:
1. Every reader gets 7 minutes to share their work.
2. We’ll limit each event to just 10 readers.
3. Toss your name in the bucket when you arrive. Names will be chosen at random.
