Champions of live writing
The winners from previous shows will meet for an epic re-match!
Four quick-witted authors will write on a prompt they hear for the first time onstage while you watch them sweat, swear, and get inspired. Each writer will read what he/she wrote, and you get to vote on the winning piece.
This edition may be the first-ever Skype-enabled live writing. Daniel Heath will be kicking back in the tropics, but is willing to Skype in for the big rematch. Cross your fingers that his grass hut has decent internet connectivity!
Andrew O. Dugas won November's zipper malfunction with God must love me tonight.
Daniel Heath is the most recent victor from February's awesome, star-shod heat.
Caitlin Myer won September's show with a cautionary tale about mixing sex with business. And guns.

PLUS! Readings from the Colonists who make it all happen every month: Leslie Ingham, Caitlin Myer, Cary Tennis and Benjamin Wachs.
