“Beautiful, compelling, irresistible: Slice will knock you right out. In the best way possible.”
-- Junot Diaz, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao
“Slice is among the golden few of modern literary publications, not only because of its fiction, poetry, interviews, and articles, but because it's simply the one everyone is talking about.”
-- Simon Van Booy, winner of the Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award and author of The Secret Lives of People in Love
Slice Magazine's Literary Jeopardy -- Tuesday, April 19th!
Slice is back with our Spring Literary Game Show Fundraiser! To celebrate our eighth issue, we’ve invited teams of authors, editors, and agents to a Literary Jeopardy challenge unlike anything Alex Trebek has ever seen.
Tickets are $25 and include a copy of issue 8, beer compliments of Slice’s official sponsors Sixpoint Craft Ales, an assortment of tasty snacks, and the warm, fuzzy feeling you get when helping out a good cause.
Stop by early for a publishing mingle at 6:30pm before the game show shenanigans begin. Meet the teams and chat with fellow writers, editors, and agents over free Sixpoint beer and light snacks. Who knows? You may even help them brush up on their last-minute trivia skills.
The Teams:
Authors: Returning Jeopardy champ Lev Grossman, Time magazine book critic and author of The Magicians; Not Eating Out in New York blogger and author of The Art of Eating In, Cathy Erway; and Simon Van Booy, author of The Secret Lives of People in Love and Love Begins in Winter
Editors: Lorin Stein, fiction editor at The Paris Review; Rakesh Satyal, senior editor at HarperCollins and author of Blue Boy; and Marian Lizzi, editor-in-chief at Perigee/Penguin
