Dear Handmade folks,

I’ll be very delighted to see you tomorrow for our usual Kirkland co-working session:

If you’re a new member just ask at the counter for the Handmade group and they’ll point you in the right direction. We’re not hard to find though: find the table full of laptops and nerds!

At every session we briefly mention what we’re each working on and then we get down to business! Come chill with like-minded friends and stay productive. I don’t know about you but if I’m alone on a Friday afternoon I rarely get anything done.

New Host: River!

Our good friend River is well-known among the regulars. River is on the retro gaming scene and they do excellent work supporting the homebrew community: keeping this mysterious so you ask about it in person :)

The next Kirkland invite will come from our new host, but I wanted to personally thank River (and previously Taylor) for their volunteer efforts. Taylor will of course attend most co-working sessions as a regular attendee. I’m super grateful we have a rotating pool of trusted members to keep the community sustainable, since I can’t possibly run everything myself.

Until tomorrow,
Abner Coimbre
Founder, Handmade Cities
