Caitlin Wees- Prudence


WHAT WAS YOUR BEST / WORST TIME WITH WHISKEY?

I became friends with a bartender once… and after that, the whiskey just kept flowing.  I don’t remember much of what happened at his bar one night… but the next morning I woke up (in my own bed) wearing a shirt that didn’t belong to me, with a feather drawn in permanent marker covering the entire right side of my torso. I had that fake feather tattoo for so long, I half considered making it a permanent one.


WHAT WAS THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS DREAM YOU HAD FOR YOUR LIFE?

When I was a kid, my #1 goal was to make the US Olympic Karate team.


WHEN LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO LIVE AFTER THE APOCALYPSE, WHAT MAKES WILLIAMSBURG SO APPEALING?

The never-ending supply of whiskey, and men with beards. Because men with beards obviously have lumberjack skills and can build a shelter after the apocalypse.

WILLIAMSBURG, BROOKLYN:
A LAND WHERE THE WHISKEY IS ALWAYS FLOWING. 
HERE PEOPLE LIVE IN BLISSFUL PEACE UNDER THE TENURE OF WHISKEY PANTS,
THEIR BELOVED MAYOR.

SINCE "THE EVENT",
THEY'VE FOUND IT'S DANGEROUS TO DREAM,
LEAVING MOST TO PREFER TO LIVE THEIR DAYS IN A DRUNKEN STUPOR.

BUT NOW,
THEIR WAY OF LIFE IS THREATENED BY AN AMBITIOUS NEWCOMER
FROM THE OUTSIDE WORLD
WHO SEEKS
TO SOBER
THEIR PERPETUAL HANGOVER.

WILL HE RUIN EVERYTHING?
OR WILL HE DISCOVER THAT
IN WILLIAMSBURG,
IT'S EASIER TO DRINK?
