Here's a new book, hot off the
presses, as the say, and guess who has an essay included in it? The book is
called Confessions
of the Other Mother: Nonbiological Lesbian Moms Tell All!
Edited by Harlyn Aizley, author of Buying Dad: One Woman’s Search for the
Perfect Sperm Donor, this book gathers the stories of eighteen
nonbiological moms who have created the"other mother" role with a
personal flair.
I got a contributor's copy a few
weeks ago. The official publication date is Mother's Day, but you should
be able to find a copy for your sweetie now. On amazon.com today it still
gives the pre-order option, but Beacon Press assures me that copies are
available in bookstores already.
Fabulous! Thanks for your contribution to this oh-so-important book! Can't wait to check it out :)

Congratulations on being published! The first (and only) time my name was in print I was giddy for three days afterward. (and my name was just in the acknowledgements, so it really wasn't a big deal)

Awesome! I just pre-ordered it and can't wait to read it. This is a subject there isn't enough written about.

How perfect!! I have been lamenting the lack of such a book as Pronoia and I have been discussing the Baby Plan. Thanks!

Congratulations!
I started reading your blog about a month ago, starting from the beginning, trying to find time to catch up. As a wannabe lesbian mama, I'm fascinated all of it.
Way to go on the essay in the book! I'll check it out for sure.

My sweetie would probably look at me like I was high if I got him this book, but I plan on reading it myself. Congratulations!
