Join us for a good old-fashioned Parisian salon…in Jersey City!

Once a month we gather to do a deep dive into a famous, not-so-famous, or even notorious short work of fiction. Our salon is a guided discussion intended to deepen our collective understanding of effective storytelling.

Suggest a short story to be featured by emailing me at [email protected].

What you need to know:

All short pieces for the salon are published pieces. Unpublished works are for JCW workshops.
Please read the story before the salon! We will NOT be reading it out loud.
We will NOT be providing printouts. Feel free to bring your own.
Wine and beer only. Please no spirits.
We would love a donation but it’s not mandatory to attend.
All writers are welcome. All writers are to be respected. Be kind.
