This web site is for the book That Takes Ovaries!: Bold Females and Their Brazen Acts, a collection of real-life stories from women and girls about gutsy, outrageous, courageous things they have done. That Takes Ovaries! open mikes, readings and plays will be held around the U.S. and world.

That Takes Ovaries!: Bold Females and Their Brazen Acts pesents sixty-four brave, unabashed, fun-loving women and their short stories of strength and audacity. That Takes Ovaries! rejects the notion of how females should behave and instead boldly declares, ìlook what I just did!î From courageous and smart to outrageous and foolhardy, from the seemingly frivolous to the obviously political, this culturally diverse group of women and girls models the range of what real femininity looks like today -- sassy, self-assured, and estrogen-fueled.
