The North Shore Page Turners will be a very dynamic group of women who share one thing in common: an enthusiasm for books.

No club, if it wants to survive, can open itself to all comers. Clubs depend on exclusivity; if the conditions of membership aren’t enforced or argued away by the more insincere members, it dies or becomes something only faintly resembling what it set out to be. Let me begin, then, by telling you exactly what I want this club to be. Once a month, Bostonians who enjoy reading aloud great literature will gather at one of city’s premier watering holes to do just that. (Dive bars won’t provide the q …

Creative writing is exciting. We are more likely to grow as writers, both in the enjoyment of our craft and in our productivity, when we are in community with other writers. Writing does not need to be lonely and unproductive, but should be an fulfilling and liberating form of creativity and self-expression. As a member of The Writers' Workshop, you can belong to a community of fellow writers who will encourage you in your craft.  Each writer should come to each week's writing session with a pen …

I started this group because I love to read Sci-Fi and Fantasy books, but I rarely have anyone to discuss them with. I've only been in CT for a few months, and I would love to meet like-minded individuals that I can have fun with and also share my love for the fantastical.

Readers who have read some really good books - like "The Heretic's Daughter" by Kathleen Kent, "Suite Francaise" by Irene Nemirovsky (you'll hear a lot more about her if you sign up.) Others are "Bel Canto" by Ann Patchett and "You're not you" by Michelle Wildgen. I want to expose the group to newer books (and be exposed in turn to some of the group member's favorites.) I also woudn't mind a liberal sprinkling of the classics.

Once upon a last week, two recent graduates decided they wanted to read something other than romance novels for a change (or not...). So we're starting this group in hopes of finding other people with a passion for reading, and a willingness to embark upon a most ambitious quest: to read as many of the "top 100 novels" as we possible can. However we don't want to limit ourselves to just those - we hope to explore, examine, and be entertained by all different types of genres. There is no limi …

Raw Food Central became a vision of founder Curtis Griffing over 30 years ago when he overcame a severe case of rheumatoid arthritis by adopting a 100% raw food diet and lifestyle. Doctors gave him no hope for a cure and promised him a future with artificial joints. "A lot of suffering was endured until I came across the truth about raw food along with a healthful lifestyle". Curtis continues to enjoy a 100% raw food diet and wouldn't have it any other way. Curtis was mentored by some of the bes …
