firelight reading time!
The best storytellers know that reading out loud is a performance... but writers are shy and awkward creatures 🥹 and what if we've never even been invited to read?!
Not to worry. Firelight Readarounds are supportive spaces to practice and perform. Start developing confidence and stagecraft in members-only events. And when you're ready for big crowds, we'll schedule public ones too.
We’ll send out calls for Readers in the Campground Commons. The first to RSVP are on the list – first come, first serve. Once you RSVP, you’ll get a confirmation email. Lost track of the date and time? Head back to your Member Page and check under "Events."
Our Readarounds run about 1 hour and we have two types:
-
Closed: think of these as comfy practice sessions attended only by 8 readers and the host.
-
Open: think of these as performances open to all LMC members and the public. A great chance to share your work with the world!
-
I want to read constantly?
If you RSVP as a Reader, congrats! But please be considerate of others and wait 4 months before claiming another slot.
I’m a Reader but can’t attend the event?
It’s best to fully commit before an RSVP and claiming a slot that could’ve gone to others. But we get it. Things come up. Just let us know: heythere@litmatchcollective.comI try to RSVP as a Reader but the slots are full. Is there a waitlist?
No, but don’t worry. These are regular bimonthly events. Check our newsletter, socials, or #announcements in the Campground Commons to learn when the next invite goes out. If you keep missing your shot, reach out to us.
