Writers Read: Ellen Meeropol, Carolyn A. Cushing, Elizabeth MacDuffie

About this event

Writers Read is a monthly opportunity for an audience to come and listen to local writers in an intimate environment. Each second Wednesday of the month, three writers read from their work, followed by a discussion facilitated by Lindy Whiton. These discussions have been eye opening, touching, and inspiring. Audiences have left the venue ready to write. Ellen Meeropol is the author of six novels, most recently Sometimes an Island and The Lost Women of Azalea Court, and the guest editor of the anthology Dreams for a Broken World. Ellen is a founding mother of Straw Dog Writers Guild and member of the WriteAngles Conference planning committee. Carolyn A. Cushing (she/her) is a Tarot practitioner, seeker of justice, and poet inspired by nature and focused on the places where life and death meet.
