What is spiREUTS, you ask? Our fantastic Twitter followers dubbed the creation of writer/REUTS related cocktails as spiREUTS, an insanely clever play on the REUTS name and “spirits”. Birthed from this moniker, REUTS author Drew Hayes took it upon himself to create four author inspired cocktails (which he had the unfortunate task of tasting along the way).
For your viewing and tasting pleasure, we’d like to feature those four cocktails so you, too, can take your taste buds on the magical journey of creating (and slaving) over a manuscript. You NaNoWriMo participants know what I’m talking about.
The Write All Night
Drew says: “#SpiREUTS #1 goes out to every @ProjectREUTSway participant also trying to hit NaNo wordcounts: The Write All Night“
The Editor
Drew says: “#SpiREUTS #2 After the rush of writing comes the harsher burn of editing. Thus, The Editor“”
The Finished Manuscript
Drew says: “#SpiREUTS #3 is because nothing tastes more like relaxation than a completed WIP. Presenting: The Finished Manuscript“
The Hemingway
Drew says: “And lastly, #SpiREUTS #4 is just because any discussion of writing and drinking must mention the icon, The Hemingway“
If you’ve been following along on Twitter, you may also see the #WDES hashtag floating around, otherwise known as Write Drunk, Edit Sober. We’re making it too easy for you guys 😉
Want to join the fun? Have you created a writer/REUTS inspired drink you’d like us to feature? Comment, tweet (with hashtag #spiREUTS) or email () your concoction (and image, if you were daring enough to try it yourself), and we’ll give you a nice little shout out!
Drink, drink and be merry!
