In Single Woman of a Certain Age, Jane Ganahl - author of Naked on the Page, and "Single Minded" columnist (San Francisco Chronicle)
- assembles a chorus of sophisticated, edgy and humorous voices who
tackle the topic of being female, unmarried and in one's prime. Why are
so many women choosing to remain single as they grow older? Or, are
they choosing? Do we really need a partner to be happy? Contributing
writers address these questions, as well as: sex, loneliness,
motherhood, financial struggles, menopause, and more. Readers for this event include: Kathi Kamen Goldmark (And My Shoes Keep Walking Back to You), Wendy Merrill (Falling Into Manholes), Anne Buelteman (actress, Les Miserables), and Cameron Tuttle (The Bad Girls' Guides). "An intriguing look at life and love in the over-forty lane. Spinsterhood never seemed so sexy - or so smart." — Autumn Stephens, Editor, Roar Softly and Carry a Great Lipstick. |

MCs: Joan Gelfand and Elizabeth Stark What is life without Passion? Whether it is passion for nature, as in Susan Freinkel's exploration of the life, death and rebirth of the American Chestnut, the passion released by five women writing their lives and pursuing their dreams as in Meg Waite Clayton's The Wednesday Sisters, or the passion of a mother, daughter and the man they both love in Maria Espinosa's Dying Unfinished, passion drives us to go beyond the confines of the everyday. Enjoy these three very different renditions of passion transforming ordinary lives into adventures in nature, creativity and love. Free raffle tickets when you buy a book by one of these authors.
