Mother’s Day is coming up–a season I have always found prickly to navigate, as a non-mother myself and child of a nonconformist mother.

But hey, without mothers where would we be?

Let me introduce you to Ann Imig, “stay-at-home humorist,”  blogger, and founder of “Listen to Your Mother,” a national series of live readings by local writers in celebration of Mothers’ Day.

Madison’s event takes place May 12th at the Barrymore Theatre, 3pm, with 10% of proceeds going to benefit Domestic Abuse Intervention Services. Show information here…

In the meantime, you can tune into a webinar in which Anne will be interviewed about “The Listen To Your Mother Show Phenomenon: How one (now hoarse) woman started a cultural movement to give Mother’s Day a voice.” Details here.
