Bring Pen Parentis to LA!

Pen Parentis, New York City’s literary salon for writers who are parents, is hoping to open a branch in Los Angeles. Want to help? Vote for this idea via Good Maker.

For seven successful seasons, Pen Parentis has held free, open literary salons in NYC where amazing authors like Jennifer Egan read from new works and discuss how they balance a successful literary career with the pressures of an active family life. A Pen Parentis member has volunteered to host salons in LA, but needs a budget to pay honoraria, to do the required publicity, and to hire a sound engineer to record the events so Pen Parentis can podcast them for all the parents that can not attend but still seek inspiration for their writing careers. Why should NYC have it all? Help make Pen Parentis LA a reality! Parenting done: write!

Help make Pen Parentis LA a reality – these Salons will be free and open to all.
