So far, my advertising of the anthology project has been low-key, but since the lovely La Leche League ladies have started to spread the word, I’ve started to receive my first submissions.
The first poetic entry brought tears to my eyes (in a good way, you know!) and the images I have received have been both fascinating, and moving.
I’ve also had various emails from mothers sending me their encouragement.
Thank you to all who have contacted me so far, and I hope to receive more creative submissions.
First steps
Just as my ten-month-old son has begun to take his first baby steps, I too, am taking my first steps into the book world with our ‘Musings’ anthology project. After months of thinking, deliberating, doing sums and many, many conversations with my husband, my first project is about to begin (probably to the great relief of my husband who is no longer being bombarded with requests for feedback on my many ideas!).
I never consciously chose ‘The Adventure Journal’ as the template for my website – it was more to do with its ease of use than anything else – but it is an apt title for what I am setting out to do. I have a rough idea of the destination I’m heading for, but how I get there… well, I’ll keep you posted.
I look forward to receiving some thoughtful, beautiful contributions…
