SUNDAY: Take 2 hours for yourself and write with WMM! We'll share strategies for prioritizing our craft, explore examples by other writer moms, and write. You'll leave this workshop energized and armed with a plan for recommitting to your creative work. bit.ly/3I01R3y

I was recently floored by a line of dialogue in a children’s book—“We don’t ignore bigotry, Jack. That’s how cowardly bigots turn into brave bigots”—if you were wondering why children’s books are important, and why there has been so much concerted effort to ban them.

This was an amazing movie clip 🎥 ! With honors with Joe Pesci. It’s worth the watch.

We’re planning a live Writer Mother Monster episode at the Stonington CT library in August. Please share the names of CT or New England writer-moms who would be able to talk about literacy, book banning, and other library-adjacent topics!

I research women and far-right movements in the U.S. and Europe, including why women are increasingly likely to join and how their role has changed. This speech was a masterclass. 1/
