Andrew and Sofie had the pleasure of hearing Jess Ardnt give a reading at Reed College in the Elliot Chapel, the same day Mercury article was published. We met Jess by chance at the 2017 Wordstock after party. Having been a huge fan of Jess’s contributions to Diner Journal, usually related to cocktails, we invited Jess to write a cocktail (or at least cocktail-threaded) book for Two Plum Press. Jess agreed, and there has been much discourse about the shape this book will take. It will happen someday! In the meantime, we highly recommend Jess’s book of short stories, Large Animals.
