Spillers № 1 was a big, beautiful blur that left a warm afterglow of accomplishment in its wake, but it was a blur, nonetheless. There was a lot going on for your intrepid podcast hosts (Don’t know us? Hi, I’m Brian. That’s Robert over there.)

That night, we performed both emcee duties and read original short stories of our own. Spillers № 1 was the very definition of “Hey, kids. Let’s put on a show!” and the results were fantastic.

Spillers № 2 was all about introducing six new local authors to the same type of great audience that came out for Spillers № 1. And the night was a tremendous success. Another great crowd filled Crescent Ballroom’s lounge, and each writer brought his or her best stuff. Here was the lineup:

Ed Kearns – “Write Me Wrong”

Connor Rickett – “Coin Toss in a Diner”

Ryan Myers – “Out of Time”

Kelsey Pinckney – “Crying on My Birthday”

Gary Joshua Garrison – “The Husband of a Galaxy”

Ashley Naftule – “Sing for Your Supper”

Thanks to the above very talented writers for sharing their work and everyone who came out or otherwise helped out.

And if you missed Spillers № 2, you’re in luck! Spillers № 3 is happening on February 1, 2016. That’s the Monday night before (thankfully not after) the Super Bowl. Come out to Crescent Ballroom. Show starts at 8 PM sharp. We’ll be looking for ya.
