On Wednesday, April 24th join co-founder of Geekadelphia Eric Smith, author and Shmitten Kitten blogger Anna Goldfarb, and online dating expert Erika Ettin as they host an evening of witty personal story telling and advice for those interested in the world of Internet dating during Philly Tech Week.

Philly 360° named it as one of their five “must-dos” for Philly Tech Week so I’ll be over there high-fiving myself. Get your free ticket here. It’s gonna be great!

Here’s the description from the Facebook invite:

If you haven’t shaken off the winter doldrums yet, come get warm (and literary!) at Pete’s Candy Store with authors Anna Goldfarb and Elna Baker. As always, the reading is free to attend!

Anna Goldfarb is a 6’1″, Philadelphia-based author, humorist and screenwriter. She wrote a book about how terrible she is at being an adult called Clearly, I Didn’t Think This Through (Berkley Books). She writes about bonerkillers on her popular blog, www.ShmittenKitten.com, and is a contributing writer for The Huffington Post, The Frisky and Hello Giggles. You can find her on Twitter @ShmittenKitten.

Elna Baker is a writer and performer of humorous stories. Her stories have been featured on radio programs such as This American Life, The Moth, BBC Radio 4 and Studio 360. In October 2009, Penguin Books published her book The New York Regional Mormon Singles Halloween Dance, which chronicles her experience as a young, single Mormon living in New York City.

The party starts at 7:30pm. Pete’s Candy Store is located on 709 Lorimer Street in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Come over and say hello!

I wrote this! Go read it. Now let’s listen to some Gwen Stefani.

This is basically what it’ll be like, minus a poor man’s Sting slathered in facepaint
