The Drunk Book Bard

When the writing gets tough, the Bard goes drinking...

This Bard's tale...

Greetings and salutations and welcome to my official book blogging site! It's been years in the making and if my nerd page and book group from Facebook had a love child this site would definitely be the result. Giggity. This blog is dedicated to any and all bookish things so we'll be posting a plethora of different subjects and topics -  blogs, pictures, reviews, current reads, our own original writings, favorite novels and poems, favorite authors and writers, etc. If you have an idea for a topic or something you'd like us to discuss or blog about then please feel free to message us here or personally direct message us and we'll get back to you as soon as we can. If you highly impress me you could possibly be a guest blogger in a future posting. If you only impress me slightly you'll at least get credit and a mention in a future blog. If you do not impress me and royally fail in the most epic of ways then YOU will owe us (Beth and I) a drink AND you will be mocked and ridiculed for as long as we see fit so proceed with caution when making suggestions friends, huzzah! Thanks for stopping by my neck of the woods and checking out my site, I take books and reading very seriously but I definitely don't take myself at all serious so have fun and enjoy this site and we will do our best to keep you entertained and amused but most of all informed. Remember, we are all moving forward word for word one page at a time in this story called LIFE so don't waste any chapters with filler and keep it moving with excitement and adventures. Cheers and happy reading my friends!

All About Us🎭 





Manny J. Perez

Owner, podcaster, blogger, writer, book collector, Bard, heavy metal pirate ☠️

Hey! I am the creator of this site and main blogger. I have been a bibliophile since I first learned how to read thanks to my mom for keeping me surrounded by books. Edgar Allan Poe and J.R.R. Tolkien are my favorite authors. I'm a private book collector and seller, my collecting consists of first editions of classics but my passion is collecting different editions of Poe's collections of short stories and poems but not just valuable editions - any that attract my attention. Favorite genre is fantasy fiction but I read anything that sounds like a good story. Last year I tried my hand at writing and I turned out to be a bit of alright. I'm working on new stories at the moment and I will share them upon completion. Short stories seem to be the best vehicle for my writing (thanks to Poe for my inspiration) so I am sticking to that prose. I started a podcast called The ED POETS Society on Anchor..FM in which I discuss Edgar Allan  Poe's work and share my original stories plus other bookish things. I run a multi-fandom nerd page called The Drunk Bard and I manage a book group called The Book Bard on Facebook. A very good friend of mine named Beth admins in my book group and is co-running this site with me and you can read more about her down below. Cheers!


Beth Podel Cartwright

Co-creator, admin, blogger, writer, overall badass

Yo! I'm a Philadelphian by birth, a Phoenician by chance, a copywriter and editor by profession, a two-time National Novel Writing Month winner, and an all-around lover of words. I'm also the Wahine-in-chief -thats what it actually said on my business cards - of the late, lamented Cargo Cult Press, a boutique publisher of limited-edition horror. We saw the writing on the wall (pun entirely intended) and got out just before the bottom fell out of the luxury market. I'm here to chew gum and read books, and my dentist told me to stop chewing gum. You can also find me at sonorandesertrose.tumblr.com where I write about mental illness, and on Twitter @TheJingoist where I write in fewer characters about pro wrestling. I live in the Southwest Valley with my husband, a pit bull, and two cats, one of whom might also be an attorney.
