I was kindly invited to this event, but I can’t make it. If any of you London people can go, it sounds like a kickass creative community type thing:

The Forest City Fashionista is hosting a Story Slam on her front porch on Saturday, August 29th from 7 pm – 9 pm. If you are interested in participating as a storyteller, please email her at slong88 (at) hotmail (dot) com by Friday, August 28th. Stories must be no more than 10 minutes in length. If you’d like to be part of the audience, bring a cushion or blanket to sit on. Non-alcoholic beverages will be supplied. Parking is available across the street.

Check out her blog, too, for some tips on how to not dress like a slob.
