Albert Einstein altered the perception of time and space, while Freud revealed the unconscious mind. As art reflected these shifts in how we perceive ourselves and the world…
This Is What Is Happening
Posted on November 10, 2011 at 12:18pm 0 Comments 0 Likes
After explaining something to me, my toddler says, “This is what is happening.” I don’t know where he picked up the refrain, but it fits my current mindset.

I lay bedridden for four days afterward, each day hoping I would awaken with energy. …

My son started preschool last Wednesday. It wasn’t pretty. We entered the school and because I was concerned about him wetting his pants (my last two blogs were about my struggle with potty training), the first thing I did was show him the bathroom. Next we went…

Here I am with my dad before we walked down the aisle. Pictures can be so deceiving. That morning I had to take an ambien in order to nap; if I hadn’t napped, I would’ve felt very weak around 4pm when this picture was taken because I have an energy-depleting disease. Just short of two weeks before this…

What I critique, what I write and what I'd like in a critique of my work
Hello,I have written for various print and online publications such as CNN and Salon (google me). I have a double MFA in Screenwriting and Non-fiction. My first book is a biography that I have been working on for over a decade (took 2 years just to get her FBI file) on the great teacher, Stella Adler. She was Brando's teacher.I'm no good at copyediting because I'm just not. Grammar bores me, but story, AHHH story. That is my forte. So, I'm what you'd call a stellar developmental editor.…See More

Sure, send me your book to claire.mcalpine@gmail.com it may take me a little while, I have another book I am reading as a beta-reader which I haven't started yet and must get to soon. But I am excited to read your book and can't wait to discover this reknowned woman who has influenced so many. Claire

Hi there. Thanks for writing. The subject of my bio is the Zen teacher Joko Beck, who just died in June, so it's a bit tricky....I have a great agent who is awaiting the proposal. I am interviewing people, writing, and worrying a lot :), which I am sure you can appreciate! I have never written a biography before, so there learning curve is pretty major.
My writing can be seen at www.bethanysaltman.com and all my parenting columns can be seen here: http://www.chronogram.com/user/profile/bethanysaltman.
I look forward to hearing more about your process. I looked at your blog and really like it. I can't believe you've been working on this for 10 years! Lord, I do not have time for that....I hope the proposal is finished in a couple months.
Take care,
Bethany

Great - my husband's family are from Bethlehem in Palestine, we spent a few months there when our children were small, I love accessing film and literature from the region and particularly the feminine perspective.
I have a couple of biographies on my reading pile Wangari Maathai and Aung San Suu Kyi, but I would love to read yours and review it, though bear in mind I'd be coming from the naive perspective of not being aware of Stella previously, but she sounds fascinating and if she comes alive in the book, all the better.
