Why I password protect pictures
By: Dawn on: May 8,2008 In: Blogging"The idea of precision, though, is sort of interesting. On the one hand I want the language to be right. On the other hand I don't want to grab my reader by the back of the neck and say, 'See, this is what I mean.' Although there are moments when I regret that I didn't, when you see wild misinterpretations or careless readings of something you hoped had been written carefully. But I'd rather take that risk. I'd rather hope the spell of the language is somehow sufficient."
About Me
I have two kids and a delightfully odd husband, Brett. My children are Noah (born to us in 1997) and Madison (born to her first mom, Pennie, in 2004 and brought to our family through a domestic, open adoption). They are my inspiration and also the reason I don't get more done around here.
I'm a writer and sometimes I get published, which is a nice thing. I write for joy, I write for money and when I'm very lucky, both things happen at the same time. My work appears in national publications including Yoga Journal, Disney's Family.com, Utne, Wondertime, Brain Child and Salon. Currently I am working on a book about my daughter's adoption and seeking representation for the proposal. I also own Smart Cookie Communications with my husband.
