This group exists primarily to facilitate meetings of the DC-area American Women Writers Study Group. It is open to anyone interested in the subject. The list may also be used to distribute region-specific announcements that would be of particular interest to scholars of American women's writing; general discussion and announcements should be posted to the main Society for the Study of American Women Writers e-list (go to http://mailman.ucsd.edu/mailman/listinfo/ssaww-L to join).
