Every day strangers cross our paths—at a coffee shop, on the street, in a supermarket checkout line or a crowded airport.

Featuring ten local writers Corbin Lewars, Tanya Ruckstuhl-Valenti, Ann Teplick, Lisette Austin, Anastacia-Renee, Jennifer Munro, Monica Lemoine, Larissa Min, Deborah Pursifull and Bonnie Rough. These smart and sassy women will bare their secrets about life and love—in poetry, prose and plays—in an evening where truth may bleed into fiction. But maybe not. David Schmader from
