Mama Needs A Book Contract
We are a group of writing mothers who have come together to write about being writing mothers! There's no age limit, no required number of kids and no one way to be a writing mother, please join in the discussion!
Beware... no topic is OT.
Queries? Check
Poop? Check.
Time management? Check.
Boob talk? Check.
Pregnancy? Check.
Internal and External Editor problems? Check.
So *exactly* who are we?
Heather Cook is a mother, writer and sales manager (in her Day Job) writing from Calgary, Alberta. She has two non-fiction books due out in Spring and Summer 2009. Cook focuses on writing articles and books about horses and parenting. Because, uh, those are related, right?
Carolyn Erickson is a freelance writer, working from her home in Wichita, Kansas. (No, it isn’t all cows and wheat. We have sculptures, and tech companies and famous entrepreneurs. Yes, it is hot, but it’s a dry heat.) More importantly, Carolyn is Mom to her first-grader, and step-mom (not wicked) to two grown sons. When she isn’t writing, she likes to join Yahoo Groups and talk about writing. (And she likes to think she’s funny, but it’s a dry funny.)
Dejah, is a freelance writer. Her work may be read in national technology media. She is the author of six (unpublished) novels and two (published) technical books.
D Kai Wilson is a 20 something writer that's just returned to university to sit a joint honours degree around raising two kids and writing several books.
Faten Abdallah is a "Jill of All Trades". Abdallah is a freelance writer and the mother of a preschooler. She also teaches an education course at a university and recently launched her copywriting and writing business.
Linda Sherwood is a freelance nonfiction writer. The mother of four children, ages 13, 12, 10 and 8, Linda just completed her master's degree in English composition. When she isn't writing, she teaches English composition and journalism at a community college.

Oh
It was very touching. I would love to see a similar one for the Iraqis who are also feeling the same emotions for their loved ones who are missing and dead. I have sat with refugee Iraqi women and have cried with them. I found it very moving as an American to sit with them and they felt no anger or difference with me. They knew that the hurt we both felt was not a political or national hurt. No matter our religion and ethnicity, people around the world are basically the same. This war is tearing apart families on both sides of the earth. Just a view from another angle.
