Portland Lady Readers are an all-round diverse group of interesting, intelligent, savvy and social women-readers for the Portland area. It is for open-minded, socially conscious, fun, forward-thinking ladies of ages 30 to 45 who are avid readers (and eaters, as there will definitely be food involved). We will speak our minds and from our hearts. We will dedicate one day of the month for books and bonding. We will have our meeting preferably at one of the members' homes where we would bring wine, …
This group is a resource for the Portland region of National Novel Writing Month Participants.
