 the readers/performers:\n\nJeff VanderMeer is the author of the Southern 
 Reach Trilogy, beginning with Annihilation. His other books include Finch, 
 Shriek: An Afterword, and the collection City of Saints and Madmen. He is 
 the co-editor, with Ann VanderMeer, of several anthologies including 
 Steampunk, The Thackery T. Lambshead Cabinet of Curiosities, The Time 
 Traveler's Almanac, The New Weird and The Weird.\n\nLucy Corin is the 
 author of the story collection 100 Apocalypses and Other Apocalypses. Her 
 previous books include the collection The Entire Predicament and the novel 
 Everyday Psychokillers: A History for Girls. Her stories have appeared in

 Festival, and SXSW. \n\n\nAbout Writers With Drinks:\n\nWriters With Drinks 
 won "Best Literary Night" from the SF Bay Guardian readers' poll six years 
 in a row and was named "Best Literary Drinking" and "Best Literary Hour" by 
 the SF Weekly. And it was namechecked in one of Armistead Maupin's Tales of 
 the City novels. The spoken word "variety show" mixes genres to raise money 
 for local causes. The award-winning show includes poetry, stand-up comedy, 
 science fiction, fantasy, romance, mystery, literary fiction, erotica, 
 memoir, zines and blogs in a freewheeling format.\n
