GrubStreet

Book Look-Alike Party hosted by GrubStreet's Muse & the Marketplace May 2023 Publishing Summit (May 18-21)

GrubStreet Center for Creative Writing

Inspired by the brilliant trend of matching <a href="https://electricliterature.com/16-book-covers-as-rihanna-outfits/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Rihanna</a> and <a href="https://electricliterature.com/a-literary-tswift-mashup-from-your-wildest-dreams/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Taylor Swift</a> outfits with popular book covers, our Saturday <a href="https://museandthemarketplace.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Muse</a> party theme is: match your outfit to a book cover! You don’t need to read or even like the book, just wear something that captures the vibes of its cover. This can be as simple as an accessory, or as elaborate as you choose to make it. Hype your own book, or a friend’s, or any book you are eager to talk about with other Boston writers and book lovers. Spend weeks planning the perfect book look or image search a book cover that matches whatever you happen to be wearing that day. Bring a copy of the book or a photo of its cover to show your fellow partygoers. We will give out prizes for the most inspired outfit and book cover pairings.And while we can&#x27;t guarantee you 15 minutes of fame, but we can offer you 1.5 minutes on the Writers’ Stage during the open mic portion of the evening! Whether this is your debut on the Boston literary scene or you&#x27;re well-established and sharing from your latest work, hook our literary and book-loving community with a 90-second sample of your creative writing in any genre.Beer, wine, and non-alcoholic drinks will be available for purchase and we will host themed networking opportunities. The event is free and open to anyone aged 21 and over. Please register in advance.I﻿f you are interested in the business of book publishing and connecting with literary agents and editors, check out the rest of our weekend <a href="https://museandthemarketplace.com/schedule-2023/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">summit programming</a>.
