Do you want to be part of a social club for women who live alcohol free? Me, too! I’m trying to find my people in the Kansas City area who want to be physically active, social, adventurous, creative, and have great conversations over a cup of coffee rather than a glass of wine. Come hang w/me!

When I started using the old blue bird app, I posted about books I loved, shared author news, blog posts (mostly about my writing journey and book recommendations)…basically all things books w/a side of witty banter. Then my feed became full of opinions about political figures + trash talking.
