Four fabulous women writers appear at the Fictionista Reading Series in Toronto
It’s so not about the shoes. Unlike Carrie, Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte, these four Fictionistas are over Manolo Blahniks and Cosmos. Sure, they’ll be offering their audiences stories about sex and relationships when they read at the Victory Café at 7 p.m. on June 19, 2008 — only with a lot more humour, sass, irony, adventure travel, and… ghosts.
