Roaringgrrl

The title of this blog, "RoaringGrrl," is a play on the title of Thomas Dekker's 17th century drama, The Roaring Girl. The play features a woman, Moll, or the Roaring Girl, who won't be silenced by her husband, her friends, or her family. In short, Moll is one mouthy broad. I like her. I changed Roaring Girl to RoaringGrrl to avoid copyright infringement. And who doesn't want to be a "grrl" with bite, sass, and attitude?
