Ten Years Around The Table: Women Write

This anthology presents the story of life – from the beginning of the cosmos through the 1800’s, into rural America of the 1940’s, to Tblisi in 1998, and on to today, all told through the voices of women expressing their knowledge, their age, their mortality, and their love. The anthology holds much hilarity, a few good mysteries, lots of great story telling, some heartbreak, and much wisdom. There is poetry. There is nonfiction. There are short stories. There are essays. There are excerpts from larger works in progress. And, on every page, there is the glowing result of the love of words and the crafted results of years of work.There are eleven writers represented here; a diverse group, with varied life experiences. These writers have met together weekly for most of the last ten years, sitting around a table in a beautiful house located in the hills of rural Southern Oregon. At these meetings, they have shared their work, taught each other, leaned on each other, laughed together, and taken each other seriously. Read their words and learn.
