From the LiveJournal group for New Yorker fans (posted June 12):

DC/VA/MD New Yorker Readers Discussion Group

Like a book club, but for the New Yorker magazine, in the Washington, DC metro area.

We have a couple of openings in our New Yorker magazine reading group. We get together at a cafe or coffee shop to talk about recent articles and cartoons in the magazine. We usually have two long and two short articles chosen to be read in advance, along with questions to stimulate discussion. That’s easier than reading The Da Vinci Code, isn’t it?

The next meeting is coming up soon, so if you live in the DC area and want to talk about the magazine in person, contact me for the details.

Want to join, if they’ve still got space? Why wouldn’t you? Email John here.
