Drinking in NOLA!

Welcome to the official community for IRAE✨📚

This space was created for readers, authors, bloggers, creatives, and book lovers, those of us who have attended an IRAE, to connect beyond the noise of traditional social media. Think of it as our cozy literary speakeasy... minus the password, plus a dangerous amount of book recommendations.

Here, you’ll find:

• Exclusive IRAE updates

• Event announcements and sneak peeks

• Author spotlights and reader features

• Giveaways, games, and community fun

• Writing encouragement and creative networking

• A place to celebrate stories and the people who love them

Whether you’re an established author, a passionate reader, or someone who simply wanders into bookstores “just to look” and leaves carrying six novels and emotional damage... you belong here. 📖✨

We ask everyone to keep this community welcoming, respectful, supportive, and drama-free. Promote with kindness, engage with authenticity, and remember: behind every book is a human brave enough to share their imagination with the world.
