Okay, guys, I confess. I've never been to a Facebook Event, though I get invites all the time; usually from someone offering me a discounted something or other which I have no use for.

I usually just decline the event and move on till they send me the same invite a couple weeks later. SSDD.

I got this one yesterday and almost immediately checked the "decline" box out of habit; then, I realized "Wait a minute! I think I'm in this?"

Sure enough, I found the acceptance letter for the enclosed story (the excerpt, I have here) so, Yippeee!!!

My question is: Have any of you hosted or attended Facebook events?

Would you be willing to stop by sometime during the month and finish reading my story?

I suspect they have some sort of counters to tell them how many people read it.

Thanks, in advance!

The Vampire in the Sewers
by Mark Wolf

The vampire didn't glitter. Nor did it glimmer or shimmer in the slightest. What it did was smell like #### and suck. It reeked from living in the sewers beneath Hippy Haven, the old trustfunder's commune. The one with the pink and yellow circular pod homes.

I caught the vampire sucking the blood from a sewer rat nearly half the size of old Clyde, my bloodhound. The rat squeaked in pain and fear, its tail spinning like a rotary blender as it tried to break free from the monster's grasp, to no avail.

Congrats.

No experience at all with Facebook Events. Sorry. But I'd be interested to know how it comes out.
