With Ann Hood, Léna Roy, and Liz Rosenberg.
Ann Hood is the author of nine novels including the bestsellers, THE RED THREAD, THE KNITTING CIRCLE, and SOMEWHERE OFF THE COAST OF MAINE, a collection of short stories, and two memoirs. Her most recent memoir, COMFORT: A JOURNEY THROUGH GRIEF, was a New York Times Editor's Choice and named one of the top ten non fiction books of 2008 by Entertainment Weekly.
Léna Roy was raised in New York City, in the cloistered environs of a theological seminary, with extracurricular education provided by Manhattan's club scene. She worked as a bartender, an actor, and as a therapist with at-risk adolescents before finding her voice as a writer in Young Adult fiction. When not writing and spending time with her family, she is teaching creative writing workshops for kids and teens from 8-18 with Writopia Lab in both NYC and Northern Westchester.
Liz Rosenberg is an award-winning novelist and poet as well as a prize winning children's book author. Her books include Home Repair, Nobody, Demon Love, and This is the Wind. Her forthcoming novel, A YEAR WITHOUT MAKEUP, will be her eighth published book. She has been a professor of English at SUNY Binghamton for more than twenty years, and is a visiting writer, faculty, or guest lecturer at writing colonies and conferences around the world.
