Women’s Web in association with JustBooks announces Book Talk, a monthly writing theme to get readers to write about the books that inspire them. If you are passionate about books, love talking about your favourite authors and discussing your best reading memories, then our monthly theme is perfect for you!
Each month, we feature a theme centred on books and reading. We ask our readers to take cues from these themes and to write about their adventures in reading. For October, our theme is:
Does Lizzie Bennett’s free spirit inspire you to pull up your petticoat and stomp across puddles? Do you get all riled up when the brilliant Hermione Granger is called bossy? Does Rahel Kochamma, with her explosive imagination, fill you with awe? Do you love complex characters like the eccentric genius computer hacker Lisbeth Salander? We all have our favourite female characters from fiction and for different reasons. Which female character has had the most impact on your life and why?
Send in your entries by the 16th of October. Entries can be anywhere between 250 and 800 words in length. They can be emailed to [email protected]. The 3 winning posts will be published on our web site on the 20th, 22nd and 24th of October and each winner will receive a Rs.500 gift voucher from JustBooks.

Dear Women’s Web Community Member,
You may have wondered at our being on the quieter side during the last couple of months. Thank you for your patience, and we wanted to come back to you with a detailed note on what’s been happening at our end of things.
When we first began Women’s Web, as a blog from one woman’s desk along with a few like-minded souls, little could we have imagined the heights that it would soar to. Over the years, Women’s Web has published over 20000 stories (almost all by women), empowered countless women with the ideas, community and resources to chase their dreams, employed hundreds of women in core and project-based roles, and in the process, emerged as the OG women’s community in India. It has also inspired many others to build communities of a similar nature, all enabling women (and other-underrepresented groups) in their own ways.
