Meet other apocalypse sci fi lovers over drinks at various cozy bars in the city! Each month we will read a book with an apocalyptic setting picked by either the organizer or voted upon by members. P.S. Some people have asked about what the 1.00 fee is/how is it used.... Most meetup events charge a low fee because meetup costs to start a group.

This is a group for anyone who has ever been curious about how to make a book. Whether you're a writer who wants to bind your own books, an artist who wants to create unique pieces, a photographer wanting to create an anthology of your work, a crafter who wants to learn new skills.
