Great Group Reads! That is how I found this group --I was searching for book recommendations for my book club, and I joined. I'd like to recommend the WNBA to others. No, it's not women's basketball, (though I'm a NY Liberty fan!), it's a long-established group of women interested/working in the business of publishing (not necessarily writers, though there does seem to be several group) -- the Women's National Book Association.
There are multiple chapters. I am a new member of the NYC Chapter. And I am also involved in this year's Great Group Reads -- selecting book choices for their book club recommendation list, and I'm loving it. I have lots of new literary titles from major presses to read at my bedside (yes, I'm old school -- I own a "nook" but I llike to read my novels the old-fashioned way. I'm more open to nonfiction and newspapers on line). Enough digressing!
Here's some info on the WNBA from a recent blog posting on their site:
Join the WNBA!

Why is now the best time to join the NYC Chapter of the Women’s National Book Association (WNBA-NYC)? Because new memberships received over the next few months will extend through August 2013! If that’s not enough of a reason, our Membership Chairperson, Rachel Weiss-Feldman, explains all the great benefits http://wnbanyc.wordpress.com/2012/04/18/join-the-wnba/
Truly, the author of LIE.
Thanks for this information, I live in NY so this is great news.
