WIFYR Merch
We have shirts! You have asked and we've delivered! Thanks to Emily Martin–and E.B. White, of course–we have this terrific quote. We have a few pre-ordered.
Shirts are $25 each.
You can Venmo @Carol-Williams-FYR and let me know what size you need in the text, or send me an email (carolloveswifyr@gmail.com) with what size you want and bring cash to the conference.
Mingle & Karaoke!
Thursday, June 18th at 5:30pm
3rd floor
The countdown has begun for our annual WIFYR KARAOKE PARTY!
This year we're celebrating PLOT TWISTS and POP HITS.
BOOGIE ON OVER for treats and an EPIC writers soda pop bar where you can mix up a BELT IT CAROL and then live to tell the tale.
If you think you've seen karaoke before, think again! We're adding a new TWIST this year that's going to make this party POP!
