Two Cookie 2014, Another Year on the Stage

Two Cookie Minimum kick offs 2014 on Tuesday January 7th with a great line up, free zines and of course, cookies. Two Cookie host Johnny Misfit dubbed 2013 the Year of the Cookie and as curator of the series, looks to make 2014 as entertaining.
Starting off the year, January’s readers include:
  • Cassandra Greenwald, member of Chicago Woman in Publishing, runner, vegan and author.
  • Mason Johnson, author of Sad Robot Stories  
  • Kevin Budnik, cartoonist and author of collections Our Ever Improving Living Room and Dust Motes.
  • Jessica Scott, Creative Writing student at Columbia College Chicago.
  • Jason Fisk, author of Hank and Jules
At the event, a Two Cookie commemorative zine compiled by cartoonist Alex Nall will be available for free while copies last. The zine includes Nall’s cartoons, caricatures and doodles of readers and scenes depicted from 2013 Two Cookie readings. This above drawing Nall's rendering of the bar at Hungry Brain, which is an example of the work that will appear in the zine.

 The show begins at 9pm. Donations appreciated.

Two Cookie 2013 Wrap Up

It's been a great Year of the Cookie in 2013. To tide you all over, here's a photo of the existential debates that happen in the men's bathroom  at the Hungry Brain on Two Cookie Minimum event posters. Its nice to see these restroom philosophers don't ignore gender in this debate either. Go add to the conversation while this poster is still up at the bar.

Here's to 2014 and all the new graffiti our posters can fit.
