Becoming Reading April 10 on Orcas Island


If you live in the San Juan Islands, several of the writers from the anthology Becoming: What Makes a Woman will read at Darvill's Bookstore on Orcas Island on Tuesday, April 10, at 7:00 pm. Darvill's is an utterly charming shop -- the quintessential independent bookstore -- with an excellent selection of books, including the Becoming anthology.

And if you're in the Seattle area, save the date for a reading at Richard Hugo House on June 26th.

Becoming Anthology Released!

On International Women's Day, we're very pleased to announce the release of Becoming: What Makes a Woman from the University of Nebraska Gender Programs. Authored by women, the anthology is filled with personal stories of the most crucial moments in the author's lives--sometimes harrowing, sometimes hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes haunting. Read about a war correspondent in Iraq, an awkward visit to an ex-husband's new commune, a woman facing an arranged marriage, the first female on an all-male college swim team, and other life-transforming events. Available through your local bookstore, and on Amazon.com.
