Tonight's reading party at 7:30 pm
Link below gets you into the virtual party. If you have a reservation in-person at the Sorrento, I'll see you there
Paul Matthew Moore will perform live tonight from 7:30-9:30 pm Pacific — an original set of his own arrangements, designed specifically to be read to. He explained how he puts together his sets recently to Good Morning America.
Literary birthdays of the week will be announced (by me) during a brief pause in the music at 7:40 pm.
If you’re attending the virtual party from home tonight, and you live somewhere sunny with an outdoor seating area, you are highly encouraged to play the music on external speakers and read to it as the sun goes down.
If you are a paid subscriber here on substack, you don’t need a virtual ticket — just scroll down! Thank you for supporting the reading party with your subscription.
If you are an unpaid subscriber here, you’ll need a virtual ticket to join us.
(For big savings, consider upgrading to a paid subscription: the $10 monthly subscription gets you in to at least 4 reading parties per month.)
If you have a reservation for the in-person party tonight at the Sorrento, you’ll be in the room where it happens, the room with all the old-world ambiance, the room with the piano where the live music is performed.
If you attend virtually
If you’re joining us virtually from home, don’t listen on your laptop’s built-in speakers! Plug your computer into speakers or wear headphones. The music will sound better and you will feel more connected to the rest of us at the Sorrento.
