counter easy hit

It’s apparently official!

My essay, “Someone Else’s Shoes: How On-Blog Discourse Changed a Real Life Adoption” will appear in Mothering and Blogging: Practice and Theory to be published by Demeter Press spring 2009. This is a cleaned up and enlarged version of the presentation I gave on Shannon’s panel at the Philly adoption conference. All the edits are done and I just turned in my short bio but I kinda won’t believe it ’til I see it. (I’m superstitious about happy things!)

    Look forward to reading it…you know I don’t usually gush too much but I really, really (deep in my heart) believe that you have something to offer the world through your writing which is why I’m excited that this year you are formalizing (can’t think of a better word but you know…putting yourself out there more…ugh..I need coffee!LOL) your role as a writer….congratulations!

    Congratulations, this is awesome!! And the book sounds just AMAZING! It’s probably the story of my life in so many different ways…

    And… were you here in Philly and I didn’t know about it? When was that? I’m so sad now. (it probably wasn’t recently, at least I hope).

    When you have time, I’d love to know your thoughts on my latest post and ensuing discussion…
