Is your book going to contain all comments twice or do you think this newsgroup is particularly stupid and won't understand it the first time? Debbie |

Hi there. I'm one of the authors of this book and, no, we're not asking
people to "write our books for us". We're just sick of hearing one side of the story, and thought nobody tells it better than moms themselves. not "girlfriends" but real moms out there in the world. We thought this might be a good place to look for smart, diverse women who have something to say about having babies. and we're not trying to mooch an opus for free here...more like an offhand thought someone came up with while waking up for the ninth time in a night,an entry from a baby diary that you think might be helpful to someone else who's going through the same thing in the future, or some kind of theory that's been lurking in the back of your mind about what it's like to be a mom. We wish we could offer a piece of the action to everyone who gives us their story, but obviously, there's not that much action to go around... we're moms trying to support ourselves here, too. Sorry if we offended anyone. (and we didn't mean to post twice, either) thanks.Rebecca mom to Ezra (7.8.03) Vicki S wrote: (thenewmom) wrote in message . com...
