Mark your calendars. Women Read/Women Write 2 will take place Saturday, October 27, from 1 pm to 6 pm, at the Galleria in Mt. Lebanon. The event will be even bigger and better than the first time. We expect to have 25-30 authors and 250 attendees. Sign up for the mailing list to get regular updates."
The mission of Women Read/Women Write is to bring readers and writers together to celebrate the books women love to read. Women make up 57% of readers and purchase almost two-thirds of all books, and we know every woman who loves to read loves her books, but until now, no group in Pittsburgh has celebrated this fact.
We want to take this opportunity to congratulate WRWW author Kathryn Miller Haines for her Edgar nomination for her YA mystery, The Girl is Murder. Woot woot! We couldn't be prouder! The awards are given out April 26. Keep your fingers crossed.
