Reading Into Writing
Coming This Winter!
February 13 - April 3, 2022
|
In the Victorian era, magicians were the rock stars. Forever trying to achieve the greatest following, they went to perilous lengths to steal from one another's trove of secrets. The feuds were many and serious. In this history, Erin Morgenstern founds the main conflict behind her novel, The Night Circus, the book we are reading in our Reading into Writing class starting Sunday, February 13, 2022.

Spend Less to Donate
When you give long-term appreciated assets like stocks or ETFs to Women Writing for (a) Change, the donation is eligible for a tax deduction, yet you pay no capital gains tax on the appreciation of those assets!
Many thanks to those of you who make gifts of appreciated stocks or ETFs to Women Writing for (a) Change!
If you sell the assets first, then donate from the proceeds, you have capital gains taxes to pay, and less left to donate. Donating appreciated securities is a win-win way to make your gift to Women Writing for (a) Change!
See how to make a gift of stock to WWf(a)C, here. |
