From author Meg Ilasco’s blog: I would like to invite each and every one of you to the party which will be hosted by the wonderful ladies of Rare Device.

When: Tuesday, October 2, 2007
Where: 111 Minna Street, San Francisco
Time: 6pm-9pm

As it says above, we’ll be raffling off a TON of prizes. Literally, 2,000 pounds of Chronicle Books craft titles and goods donated by local indie businesses and the profilees featured in the book. Really nice stuff like the infamous In Fiore body balm, a Lotta Jansdotter bag, fat quarters of Denyse Schmidt’s new line “Katie Jump Rope”, a gift certificate for Rare Device and so much more!

And the best prize of all (if you own an indie craft/design biz) is one month of free advertising space on design*sponge. I wish I could throw my own business card in the hat, but I gather it would look a wee bit suspicious if I won the prize.

So come to the party to buy a signed copy of the book and to meet me! Or if you already know me, then come to win a prize. Or if you don’t care to win a prize, then come to see all the very nice-looking people that will be there. I’ve paid them handsomely to stand around looking pretty. Don’t let my good money go to waste!

I’ll be there - how about you!?
