A torrential downpour didn't stop more than 75 freelancers from trekking over to West Village hotspot Movida for our Wednesday mixer. Perhaps they were motivated by the chance to win the month of membership to the writers' space, Paragraph NY, which we raffled off that evening. Open letter to the three winners: Be sure to contact Lila of Paragraph to redeem your gift a.s.a.p.!
