Mail Call: “Mama, PhD” Events
This just in from my mama-writer-friend Elrena Evans, who co-edited Mama, PhD (”a literary anthology of deeply-felt personal narratives by women both in and out of the academy, writing about their experiences attempting to reconcile bodies with brains”) with a mutual mama-writer-friend, Caroline Grant.
