Rubyfruit Jungle, oh how I heart you

Okay, so this doesn't really have to do with Girldrive, per se, except for the fact that it's about finding your feminist identity...but I just wrote a piece on Bitch's site about how much I love Rita Mae Brown's Rubyfruit Jungle. It seriously is the best feminist novel I've ever read. Check it out.

Preview: some dates for the Girldrive launch

Seal Press and I have been hard at working settling some dates for various Girldrive events. So far we're planning on:

• a reading at KGB Bar in NYC on Oct 29 at 7 p.m. (featuring some ladies from the book)
  

• a classy-ass launch party (kid-and-underage-friendly!) at A.I.R. Gallery in NYC on Oct 30 at 7:30 p.m.
  

• a reading at Women and Children First in Chicago on Nov 7 at 7:30 p.m.
  

• a reading at Left Bank Books in St. Louis on Nov 22 at 4 p.m.
  

I'm also hoping to hit up Detroit, Milwaukee, Madison, and any college or bookstore that invites me within driving range! (Or if you want to fly me out, that's cool too.)
