Two new posts this week - on the frustrations around my eating disorder.

One is pretty snarky:  Why Don't I Just Eat,  and one is not so snarky:  I Can't See Me...

Hi everyone.  (How did I not know this group was here?) I just wanted to introduce myself.  As a former ballet dancer I suffered from anorexia, then transitioned to bulimia, which I lived with for many years.  Now recovered, and a therapist (but I deliberately don't treat eating disorders directly), and mom, I write fiction and blog about body image, recovery and identity.  (Sorry for the run-on).  Looking forward to connecting.

How’s that New Year’s diet coming?

 

.99¢ buys you inspiration: “Fat Chick” the novel available on Amazon and B&N.com

In a time when many authors have to shill their own work (physically and financially) because publishers can't afford to or don't want to unless you're a Kardashian and they know people will line up for the book signing (yes, Kim & Co "wrote" a novel) we can get so caught up in promoting our stuff that we forget others have written books too.

In an effort to help a friend/mentor as well as recommend a book that I have read and really did benefit from I offer you an article I wrote about "Unhooked: How to Quit Anything."

Just don't quit writing.

I had no idea this group existed!  I have a memoir on my laptop detailing my 15 year struggle with bulimia (and other things).  We'll see if it ever sees the light of day!

Hey guys! I wanted to share my blog on wordpress: www.laurasusanneyochelson.com. I blog a lot about eating disorders and health. I have an upcoming book (in production now) at Balboa Press sharing my story of reclaiming myself called "A Likable Girl...A Lovely Woman." I would love to be friends on SheWrites!
