Come Monday Night - A Readaround

Join the Marvelous Monday Nighters of Women Writing for (a) Change in Cincinnati, as they present their written works in a format called a readaround. Once a semester, we invite the public into our circle to hear the words of women writers.  Women stand before a podium, microphone in hand, and share in a publishing of their work, their lives.

From airport security lines to the making of Julia Child's beef pot roast , from the old boys club on the golf course to one teacher's tribute to her deceased student, from online dating to connecting the dots, the marvelous women from Monday night take listeners on an amazing journey through the land of laughs and tears.

Credits to:  Janet, Karen, Annette, Susan, Katherine, Inga, Sandi, Jackie, Celeste, Linda, Donna, Mary Jo, Kerry, Naomi, Saundra and Sally, while holding the words of those unable to read that day, Anni and Terri.

What did Karen Arnold have to say about her guest shot?

I loved hanging out with you guys on you Tuesday and must thank you again for allowing me to be part of your podcast. I was so honored. I just hope it is enjoyed by some.

 I also want to tell you what a great job you did commenting  throughout the taping. I was in awe of your comments and questions, which were so in tune with the theme,  and yet so natural and off the cuff.  Kudos, sister!!

 Listen In...

Please let the other ladies know how much I enjoyed being there and how grateful I am that they listened to my words and supported me.
