About
Founded in Bay City in April of 2012, The Pen is a gathering place and venue that serves all Second Life® residents. Formed with a Beatnik coffee house look and feel, the place presents spoken word and music events on both a static and erratic schedule.
Feel free to kick up your feet, grab a cuppa, and stay a while, friend. You can even click the books on the coffee table to hear a few quotes from Beat Poets, or let your fingers roam to find other hidden things around the place.
Our Menu
Coffee
We offer the finest in freshly-ground mesh coffee beans imported from coffee growers in Jeogeöt and Nautilus. Each cup is brewed to perfection.
Baked Goods
We have three baked good options available fresh on a daily basis. Flaky croissants, gooey cherry turnovers, and a wide variety of muffins.
Conversation
We offer chit chat and conversation any time more than one person is present. This is on the house.
Inspiration
Bleary eyes, insaned mind bemused and mystified by sleep, details that pop out even as you write them you don’t know what they mean, till you wake up, have coffee, look at it, and see the logic of dreams in dream language itself, see?Jack Kerouac

Buzz
The Pen is one of the best coffee houses I have seen. Aside from having the best cinnamon buns in Bay City, they have great coffee and great conversation. Every month they have Espresso Yourself Night which is a great time to stop in, meet some new people and enjoy some great conversation. You might even meet some new friends.
Good music, good food, good conversation! The Pen is one of the few places in Second Life where a community can come together and just chill and go along for the ride. Marianne has done a fantastic job in creating an atmospheric beatnik hangout! You haven’t lived SL until you at least stop here once!
Espresso Yourself!
The Pen proudly presents Espresso Yourself night, held on the first Tuesday of every month at 6:00 p.m. SLT.
What is “Espresso Yourself?” It’s a chance to take your spot on the stage and share. Tell a joke, share your poetry, read a chapter from your favorite book, sing a song. Just share! Voice or Text. Talent not required, but passion is mandatory. Also, no mimes.
