Little write up about Jane doing Writers with Drinks tonight. See you there? 🙂

Writers With Drinks @ The Make-Out Room (Sat.)
At any given Writers with Drinks, crowds gather to sip cocktails while enjoying live readings by local literary luminaries. This time, it’s someone you may not immediately associate with writing –  Jane Wiedlin. The pixie-ish co-founder and lead singer of seminal 1980s girl group The Go-Gos, Wiedlin also has written two musicals, a Lady Robotika comic, and is in the midst of her screenwriting-directing debut (a short film entitled The Pyrex Tales). Also reading this time around, Ethan Watters, author of Crazy Like Us: The Globalization of the American Psyche and novelist Blake Charlton. ($5-$10, 7:30 p.m.)

Jane will be appearing at Writers With Drinks on Jan. 8, 2011 with Ethan Watters, Jesús Ángel García and Blake Charlton

Date: Jan. 8 2011
Time: 7:30 to 9:30 (doors open at 6:30)
Location: The Make Out Room
Admission: $5 to $10 sliding scale, all proceeds benefit the CSC.

About Writers With Drinks:
Writers With Drinks has won “Best Literary Night” from the SF Bay Guardian readers’ poll six years in a row and was named “Best Literary Drinking” by the SF Weekly. The spoken word “variety show” mixesgenres to raise money for local worthy causes. The award-winning show includes poetry, stand-up comedy, science fiction, fantasy, romance, mystery, literary fiction, erotica, memoir, zines and blogs in a freewheeling format.

In advance of the film’s release in Spring 2011, the film Doggie Boogie announced the all-new Wall of GrrrAttitude.

The Wall is an iPhone and Android app as well as a web site.  Built by the independent film Doggie Boogie to thank the cast and crew, the Wall now aims to be a the world’s largest collection of thank-you’s!

Uploads to the Wall cost $1, and half the proceeds from the Wall will benefit Guide Dogs for the Blind and  SeniorNet technology centers. Some of the proceeds will also help Doggie Boogie with the first screenings of the film on tour! More info HERE.

Hi!
Thanks to your help, I raised $4,024.00 for The BUSTED FOUNDATION, the people who organize Bowling For Boobies. The event was a big success and a lot of fun. This year I have become an even WORSE bowler, but hey, it’s not about winning the game, it’s about helping the people!

I know there are tons of charities and people out there wanting your hard-earned money, and I appreciate that you put your faith in me and this event. You can feel great knowing that your money goes directly to help women that are fighting breast cancer to pay their bills.

Lots of love and gratitude,
Jane

If you would like to contribute to The Busted Foundation you may do so HERE.

During Comic-Con International in San Diego, rock star, comics fan and now comics creator Jane Wiedlin (The Gogo’s) and comics creator Bill Morrison board the CBR Yacht to talk about their new Image Comics space dominatrix series “Lady Robotika” and to enjoy a drink or two.

In just a few days Jane will be at the Bowling For Boobies Event in LA.

Jane’s donation page is currently hovering at $3200 and we’d like to bump it up to $4000 before the event on the 24th.

Jane’s blog receives over 500 visitors a day. If each one of you reading this donated just $5 – think of the difference we could make!! 🙂
