Need a little fuel for your creative engine? Enjoy a bit of macabre inspiration? Love the company of other writers? Join us for an Infernal Salon! First, we deal out writing prompts from our "Deck of Destiny," a spooky deck of cards that is the core mechanic of our new TTPRG, "Negocios infernales." Then we set a timer for 20 minutes. Every writer in the room creates something new, inspired by the card prompts: story, poem, song, play--anything! (Finishing a piece isn't necessary or even likely! Everyone's in the same boat.) At the end of twenty minutes, we use the rest of the time to share our new works with each other! Much revelry is had by all! Featuring: C. S. E. Cooney, Carlos Hernandez #gcws #experience
