In this month's episode, Beth, Brittany, and Stephanie get you ready to Level Up with our summer reading program (it’s not just for kids!) They discuss how you can participate in the Midwest Writing Center’s annual David R. Collins Writers’ Conference happening right here in the Quad Cities. They also do a mid-year check in on their reading goals and get a bit bossy with each other’s to-read pile.
