Meetup details are available only to members.
Ours is a book club on the old model: a long-term, ongoing group of women that reads and discusses a variety of books and enjoys great friendships. We're now just over a year old, and while people have come and gone, a core group is in the process of forming. Our meetings are fun, boisterous affairs where lots of interesting and often diverging views are aired. The books we read span a wide spectrum: fiction, biography, non-fiction, classics, etc. We don't read self-help or how-to books, and w …

11 attendingThere are several book clubs out there but they either seem to be disbanding, specialized or for women only so I decided to start this one. I am the former organizer of a large book club in Nashville which, I'm proud to say, is still going strong and I hope to bring that same success to this one. I had the opportunity to read a lot of great books I may not have picked up on my own and I hope to be introduced to even more! This is a co-ed bookclub that will meet once a month, at local coffee sho …

Meetup details are available only to members.
There are a few other book clubs out there, but not many in the NW corner of the city. I struggled to find one that was just for women and had spots available at their upcoming events. So, I started my own group. I'm also hoping to expand beyond the monthly book discussions. It would be great to meet other women that are interested in dinners, wine tasting, etc. Please note: This group has $2 dues for each 6-month period. The current period is November 2012 to April 2013. You can either pay …

Who's attending?
2 attendingMost women dislike, even hate their periods but on my journey in understanding my cycle I discovered that society and media creates a stigma about something that should be natural and empowering to women. Being on the Board of the Red Web Foundation (http://www.theredweb.org/#) in California, I have discovered and read and seen many great books, video and art regarding menstruation. I believe that if most women understood and learn to accept their periods, body and mind perceptions would change …

11 attendingWelcome Earthlings! I've had an interest in the presence of UFOs for many years and have kept it hidden away from others, because I didn't want to be scoffed at by the skeptics or called "crazy". I believe that the appearance of objects in the skies, crop circles, contact with aliens and other experiences are real for many. In fact, quite a number of people I've met over the past 15 years have come forth and shared their experiences with me. Underneath these sightings and other phenomena , ther …
