From the National Women's History Project web site:
"The overarching theme for March 2010 is Writing Women Back into History. In 2010, in celebration of our 30th Anniversary, we will be highlighting themes from previous years. Each of these past themes recognizes a different aspect of women’s achievements, from ecology to art, and from sports to politics."
Local members of Broad Universe, a non-profit international organization with the primary goal of promoting science fiction, fantasy, and horror written by women, will celebrate National Women's History Month with an introduction to some of the greatest women writers of science fiction, fantasy and horror.
Join them for short presentations and rapid-fire readings. All events are free and open to the public.

Podcast interview with author & witch Dorothy Morrison
I posted the first part of my podcast interview with author & witch Dorothy Morrison a couple of days ago. We had a lot of fun doing it, too.
If you're not familiar with Dorothy, here's some background info.
Dorothy Morrison is the author of over a dozen non-fiction books on paganism and Wicca including
Everyday Magic
The Craft: A Witch's Book of Shadows
Magical Needlework
Utterly Wicked
With Kristen Madden, she co-wrote Dancing the Goddess Incarnate and is the creator of The Whimsical Tarot.
In the first half of the interview, I talked to Dorothy about storytelling, her first novel (Lucinda's Web), and the woes and wackiness of book touring.
A native Texan, Dorothy lives in Virginia with her husband.
