Happy 2017!

Just a check in to let you all know that I'm continuing to work on transcribing and editing of interviews for the book. It's a fun process to review all the amazing interviews I've done in the last year and a half. This year will be spent digging into all 70 interviews to create the final book. I'll continue to share some wonderful moments as we go along.

I also encourage all of you to consider making a resolution to see work by women. Women Arts has a challenge for you to see 52 movies by women or 52 plays by women. Find out more here: http://www.womenarts.org/2017/01/02/make-a-resolution-to-see-work-by-women-this-year/

That's all for now!

Updates and News

in , ,

I completed 56 interviews today. I met with the extraordinary Ruth Kaufman, voice over and on camera talent and a romance novelist. It was an insightful conversation.

We are getting close to the end of the interview portion. Only a few more interviews in the works! Soon I'll begin the editing and promotion process for the final product. So stay tuned!

Upcoming events and projects by women in the project:

Shanta Nurullah, storyteller and musician, will be performing in Classic Black: Southern Roots, Urban Migrations at the Pegasus Theater on Friday, March 25 at 7:30. The Theater at the Chicago Dramatists is at 1105 W. Chicago Avenue, Suite 202. The admission is $10. You should check it out.

Lucy Knisley will be publishing her book: Something New: Tales from a Makeshift Bride on May 3 about her experiences planning her wedding. I'm really keen to read this since I love Knisley's work and I have strong feelings about wedding planning. You can preorder  it  here: http://www.indiebound.org/book/9781626722491

That's all for now!
