Join us for our second annual "Galentine's Day Blind Date With a Book Speed Dating Night" with special guest Deanna Foster, author of Fortunes of Madness, Pocket Full of Blood, Post Mortem Management, and Shadows Grace. For our Speed Dating event, Blind Date books use their first line(s) as their “pick-up” lines, so Deanna will be here to tell us all about first lines: how she came up with her first lines and their importance. She’ll also discuss her novels. There will be games and lots of laughter. Everyone gets one of these, never seen before, specially made, high-demand Blind Dates. Preregistration will be required for this event to predict our exact numbers. The cost will be $10.50 per person, and everyone goes home with a date. Dress to impress. Note that this event is on Friday the 13th. This is an adult event.
The format of the night will be as follows;
• Participants will be given 30 seconds to flip over the Blind Date in front of them, read the Blind Date's pick-up line and genre, and decide if they are interested and would like to take that date home with them. If they are interested, they take it back with them to their seat, and a new Blind Date with a Book replaces the one removed.
• If they are not interested in that particular date, they just flip it back over, for the next person in line, and return to the end of the line.
• This will continue until all participants have chosen their date for the night.
• Once everyone has picked their date, they can then unwrap them if they wish. We encourage people to wait until everyone has selected their date before unwrapping. Pictures of the lucky matches will be encouraged.
