#CWA_Daggers #GoldenAgeMysteriesLtd #CWA

This looks amazing! Of interest to @thehistorygirl1.bsky.social

I would love to send in a proposal for this if I have any time

White book cover with words ‘ARE WOMEN HUMAN? Dorothy L. Sayers. Penetrating, sensible, and witty essays on the role of women in society.’

“What we ask is to be human individuals, however peculiar and unexpected.”

For #InternationalWomensDay, the @goldenagemysteries.bsky.social gang and I are reading Dorothy L. Sayers’ ‘Are Women Human?’ A sometime witty, mostly exasperated reply to very silly attitudes in 1938, which still persist.

Happy #InternationalWomensDay to our amazing ‘Agatha family’. ✨📚🕵🏻‍♀️🔎

At Golden Age Mysteries, you’ll find the ‘maddening family’ you’ve always wanted to belong to! Come along to the next conference, and enjoy discussions on all things Golden Age with people so excited to hear all you’ve got to say!

Happy #internationalwomensmonth , Golden Agers! 🖤✨

We’re here bringing you some lovely Sayers wisdom on this beautiful and bright Monday afternoon! 📚🕵🏻‍♀️🔎
