It started as our small way of redressing the gender inequality in Australian publishing and readership and we’ve been at it for almost six years. It’s wonderful.
Any other brilliant book clubs out there? I’d love to hear of the different focuses you have or practices you implement! #BookClubs #reading #australianwomenwriters #writers #writing #writingcommunity #auslit #fembookclub

I’m newly returned to MA (specifically living in #JamaicaPlain) after 12 years in #Seattle. I was very active in #progressivepolitics there (and even challenged an incumbent from the left), but still figuring out the dynamics of being involved while working for the state. I work on MA Paid Family Leave program as a #govtech #productmanager (#womenintech). I also like #baking, #knitting, #bookclubs, and would love to meet more people!

Thread. For #BookClubs.
If you’ve read #WiseUp you’ll know it would make a great non fiction book to discuss at your book club .. given that most book clubs are women heavy & involve wine!!
