Author readings can be boring, but little is dull when you’re working on an evening drunk in the Mission. Litquake’s "Lit Crawl" wisely combines the two, scattering nearly 150 top-shelf authors throughout 30 venues around Valencia Street (plenty of them bars) and staggering reading times for rosy-cheeked attendees. Your course is your own, depending on your tastes in bottles or books. We recommend starting with Violet Blue at Good Vibrations, catching Robert Coover at the Elbo Room, and finishing with K.M. Soehnlein at the Marsh or the "Writers With Drinks" crew at the Latin American Club. After that, requisition a park bench and sleep it off. "Lit Crawl" starts at 5 p.m. at various venues. Admission is free; visit www.litquake.org
