The Real Housewives of the Revolution

The story continues with Chapter Two

For my paid subscribers, I’m sharing from my work in progress, The Real Housewives of the Revolution. It’s the story of a fictional woman named Jennie July, who I imagine is the one woman who was present at Seneca Falls in 1848 who lived to cast a vote after the 19th Amendment was finally ratified. It is also the story of how American women got the vote.

You can read the preface and first chapter here.

This time, Jennie successfully escaped. After a weepy farewell to Diana on the front porch of her childhood home, she boarded a train intent on New York City but for some reason lost to history, she disembarked in Seneca Falls instead.
