The drinks bring the proof. The books bring the prose.

LEARN MORE

Proof & Prose was created from the belief that the stories we connect with can spark creativity and inspiration in us. A good book can remind us of that song we used to love ages ago, their characters can resemble our friends, and their worlds can conjure up memories of our own familiar places. Sometimes, they can even remind us of a beloved cocktail.

At Proof & Prose, I bring that spirit to the timeless art of the book review, with a twist. Each story I read is paired with a thoughtfully crafted cocktail or zero-proof mocktail that captures it’s essence. I’ll share what I’m reading, what I’m sipping on, and how the two come together. I invite you to pour a drink, open a book, and join me in discovering what stories can bring into our lives.
