Ever wonder what's on the mind of New York City high school girls?
For all you New Yorkers, this weekend you'll get a chance to find out. I'm a big fan of this this kick-ass organization called Girls Write Now. They pair new york city high school girls with professional young women writers, aiming to help girls express themselves and find their voice. You should check out the girl's annual reading this weekend, called BEHIND MY EYES, hosted by Stacyann Chin of Def Poetry Jam, who is an awesome poet in her own right. It's this Sunday at the Barnes & Noble in Astor Place from 4-6.
And, better yet, if you can't make it to the reading, you can support Girls Write Now by doing all your book shopping at the Barnes & Noble *Astor Place only* this weekend, because 25% of all the profits will go to support these girls in their next season. Saturday, 6/24-Monday 6/26, look for the girls with the vouchers at the store.)
