Our meetings included freelance writers, novelists, storytellers, and editors. These networking evenings provide an encouraging atmosphere for talking about the publishing business, troubleshooting, and your writing path.
Come chat about your work, exchange email addresses, swap stories, and enjoy the venue. The winery will be able to serve light snacks if you’re coming straight from work. You can also explore the building, built in the 1800s, and ask questions about the barrel room.
Please Mapquest the winery, capture my phone number (614-579-3479) or take down the following directions. The winery isn’t on most GPS services, and you can go around in circles. If you park in the alley, parking is free, otherwise you will pay the lot attendant $3.00.
DIRECTIONS: From South Front Street, turn into Liberty Street and pass the Eiffel Tower at Outland. Turn right into the parking lots. Go straight through the first lot, head into the second lot, and make for the alley. The winery is the pale green brick building with dark green trim. Call if you get lost.
