Please join us for our discussion of this month's book selection: The Authenticity Project by Clare Pooley
"The Authenticity Project by Clare Pooley is a heartwarming novel about a lonely artist who starts a chain of honesty by leaving a green notebook in a café, prompting strangers to write their truths and ultimately connecting them in real life, leading to unexpected friendships and love. The story follows several characters, including the artist Julian, the café owner Monica, and others who find the notebook, as they share their deepest secrets and find connection through radical honesty. It's a story about vulnerability, connection, and the idea that no one's life is as perfect as it seems."
Her Voice Rising - A Writing Community for Women of Color
Your words carry power. Your story holds legacy. Your voice deserves space. Her Voice Rising is a writing community created by and for women of color—a space to write, reflect, and grow alongside others who understand the depth of your journey. Whether you’re a seasoned writer or just beginning, this is your invitation to gather, create, and rise together. You’ll bring your own writing. We’ll hold the space. Together, we’ll honor what’s unfolding.
Showing up for yourself with consistency and care. Claiming time for your voice and your writing practice. Growing in community with women who share your rhythm, roots, and resilience. This is not about perfect grammar, publishing deals, or literary critique. This is not a workshop or a place of formal writing instruction. However, I would like us to remain open to organic opportunities to help each other grow. This might look like someone opening up a meeting by sharing something they wrote, offering a writing prompt for the day to those who may be interested, or asking for feedback.
We believe that writing is a sacred act of healing. We believe that when women of color gather in truth, transformation happens.
