What services does your business offer and what makes your business stand out from the competition? Writing & Wine is a social event that takes place at local bars/pubs/restaurants. We are a unique, new business, offering creative writing for those looking for something new to do after work with friends and colleagues. We stand out from the paint & sips which offer yet another painting to hang on the wall! We are the new alternative to the many painting and sips all around the city. Also, there is absolutely no writing experience necessary. We provide everything you'll need to begin writing your masterpiece!

What was the inspiration to start or run this business? As the author of five (5) books, a former publisher of a community newspaper and a former editor of a NYC-based magazine, writing is my passion!

What do you love most about your job? I love the freedom Writing & Wine gives me to continuously create new ideas to present to the attendees, making sure that they have an unforgettable experience!

What is the best reaction you've ever gotten from a customer? "It's over already? I could have gone for another hour!" "You should do this more often." "I had so much fun! Thank you for inspiring me." "Had so much fun! I don't get to do stuff like this often. Always fun to hang out and drink with my friends and now I can connect with my creative side too!" "I can definitely see this taking off! I 'd definitely do it again.
