WRITING ABOUT OUR LIVES

JANUARY, 1998

I am delighted to introduce the women writers I've had the pleasure and privilege of listening to over the past months. Some are beginning writers. Others have been working at their craft for many years. All have shared their courage, honesty, wisdom and humor. Their words have touched me deeply and I think they will do the same for you. Enjoy.
