Midway Pie Day and Mug Exchange this Sunday!

 

Social Media Graphic for this Year's Midway Pie Day

Hello again, Sockmonkeys!

I know, lots to keep track of and catch up on this month. Maybe you were wondering if, since we're no longer affiliated with HQ, we'd be doing the bigger potluck events or not. The answer is a definite YES! They're too fun not to continue, so in honor of passing the midway point of our November RebelWriMo, we are having our Midway Pie Day and Mug Exchange this Sunday, November 17th from 12 - 2 p.m.

New to the region or the group and don't know what a Midway Pie Day and Mug Exchange is? Basically, it's a write-in, but with food (and often multiple pies) and where people bring a wrapped new or clean, gently used mug to exchange for a random mug from all the others brought. See this post on the 2023 Midway Pie Day and Mug Exchange 2023 for photos of last year's event.

This is always a fun time and we all get some writing in while eating and being able to chat with other writers from the Tacoma/Pierce County area.

Again, it will be this Sunday, November 17th from 12 - 2 p.m. Please see the event on the Google calendar for more details. Also, please note that I will do my best to stream the event into a video channel in our Regional Discord for those who are ill or otherwise cannot attend in person.

Please RSVP to let me know if you'll be able to make it by clicking through and filling out this form (if you haven't already done so).

And then, if you will be attending, please click through to this form and fill out what sort of food you're willing to bring to the Pie Day potluck.

I do hope you'll be able to join us!

P.S. Yes, there is also a Winter Potluck and Blind Book Exchange on the calendar. It is scheduled for December 1st. You can check the calendar for more details and the links to RSVP and sign up now or wait until the post with them in it is written and published on the blog.

A vertical orange rounded corner rectangle is on the left with the text "Midway Pie Day Is This Weekend! in white above a white line with the words "Join us for a Writing Potluck!" in brown above a horizontal darker rectangle with the words "Mug Exchange, Too!" in white in it. Below that in white is Sun Nov 17 12 - 2 p.m. and at the bottom of the rectangle in brown text are the words "See the Pie Day Post on the Blog for more info & to RSVP". The PCSockmonkeyWriters Logo with Polly Esther and Pierson is in the lower right corner on top of the pie.
