That Reminder We Promised

Fellow bloggers and writers: there is still time for you to ‘go long’ on 2 September!

On Monday, we’re posting something a bit longer than usual (1500 words +) on the subject of ‘Women in the World of Beer’.

A few other people, we understand, are planning to do the same, including Ron Pattinson, Leigh Linley and Adrian Tierney-Jones. (And maybe Alan McLeod and Stan Hieronymus, too?)

So, if you’re a blogger or writer; or a brewer or publican who writes, and feel like joining in, why not:

• dig out and polish up something you’ve previously published in, say, a local CAMRA newsletter;
• tell us about the founding of your brewery, bar or beer-related business — the kind of story that rarely, it turns out, gets written down;
• indulge in a stream-of-consciousness exercise on the subject of your favourite pub or beer, or pubs and beer in general;
• interview (have a chat with…) someone such as a local brewer, publican or even your beer-loving auntie; or
• write a detailed review of your favourite beer book.

It doesn’t have to be a masterpiece (ours isn’t, though we’re quite proud of the illustration) as long as its fun for you to write.

So, there you go. Reminder over. As you were. Move along.
