The Snow Will Melt. It's Time to Party with The Metropolitan Review!
Our next edition for our legendary reading series is March 3rd
We know your mind is on the blizzard but, believe it or not, the snow will melt in New York. In January, we had a wonderfully successful reading and party for The Metropolitan Review. More than 100 of you showed up. We loved it so much we decided to do it again. On March 3rd at 7 p.m., we’re having some very special TMR writers read from their latest work. Afterwards, we’ll drink and party, celebrating all the progress we’ve made so far. The first print issue is out and will be more widely available soon. (In April, we’ll celebrate that. Don’t fret.)
Want to meet the TMR editors and writers? Sick of the winter and ready to have a good time? Come to the KGB Theater, downstairs, in Manhattan on March 3rd at 7 p.m.
Spend your snow day the right way — supporting TMR and looking forward to great literary company.
We’ll see you soon.
—The Editors

Nice recounting of the beautiful people at the party. Don't know much about New Ritual Press other than they don't answer their mail. Having reached out to some of their writers (highlighted in your report) and not received the curtesy of a reply, a yes, a no, or a 'get lost.' Seems like a mutual admiration society--yes, likely a good business model--where everyone kisses everyone's ass.
Am I wrong? A crank? An old bitter boomer? Maybe. But that doesn't mean I can't write.
