Tonight is another Tavern Chat at 830 Eastern.
I would have used the G+ Event Notification, but since it spams people instead of just leaving a notification like a normal G+ post, I figured I'd do it the old fashioned way.
The chat box is on the left hand side of this very blog page ==>
As an aside, The Tavern's Patreon Page went live earlier today and we already have $86 in monthly pledges. The Tavern Community has been consistently generous over the years and I am forever in the debt of all of you. Thanks :)
