A Room of One's Own welcomes local dog lover and author Mel Miskimen and her beloved black lab Seamus for a reading at our store!

Rowdy, reckless Seamus is the last dog you’d find in a training field. Instead of obediently retrieving, he stubbornly follows his heart, wherever it may lead.

Over thirty-four Madison area poets will read poems from the 2017 Wisconsin Poets’ Calendar on Sunday, October 16th, starting at 2:00 pm. This annual event, held at Room of One’s Own, celebrates the 31st year of publication of the calendar. French Barnard and Estella Lauber edited the 2017 calendar, which is a publication of the Wisconsin Fellowship of Poets. The reading is a wonderful opportunity to hear a variety of poetic takes on the “seasons”.” It is also a good time to get a head start on holiday shopping. The Calendar makes great gifts.
