Miriam,
I would say you must be on the right track! You garnered a powerful reaction and I personally would rather feel a strong emotion about than 'meh.....it was okay, I guess'. Good for you for having the strength to write the bad and…

No problem, Seletta. I really don't like the sort of thing where people try to get snarky/attack under the guise of intellectualizing. I felt compelled to speak up; I've experienced it online and offline and its even more insulting…

THIS is a dynamic and intelligent…

My favorite thing I wrote this year is my article on David Benton. When I interview someone, it is important that they are happy with the end result. David was ecstatic, and I feel proud that I really captured his essence.…

Empowering kids to eat healthy
Posted on February 19, 2010 at 2:48pm 0 Comments 0 Likes

What tripped me up and caused my weight gain as a child was my parents’ lack of attention to what I might be eating when not at home.

Cris, I started writing when I finally believed in myself enough and allowed my voice to emerge and trust the process. The piece I'm working on is a one-woman show about mental illness and it was bubbling under the surface for years. It was…
