Today is day one of me seriously planning to write a book. It's an idea that I've had in my mind for many years and now I believe the time has come. What's my great plan? Well it starts here and it starts with you. I want your input and thoughts as I move forward with this book.
I am going to share with you what I am doing, where I am up to, what is working well, not so well and everything in between.
Here is step one I'm finding out what people actually want in a book on lesbian parenting. So to start I have contacted a range of my Facebook friends for some starting ideas.
"Hi everyone. I've decided
to take the plunge and do something I've always wanted to do i.e. write a
book. I intend to write fiction but first I will be starting with an
e-book about lesbian parenting. I am sending this message to you
because you are all people who I expect might have an opinion on this or
know what might be helpful to others. I have included people without
children, with children, different stages of child rearing and different
ways in which children were brought into our lives to get broad
feedback. I hope by inviting you to comment I am not touching on a
topic that brings you hurt. Please know that is certainly something I
would never want to do as I respect each of you so much.
Australia is lacking resources and information for lesbian parents so
I'd really like to know what type of topics do you think would be
helpful. So throw you ideas at me including:
topics, style, issues, funny moments, and so on.
Please feel free to forward this to anyone who might have an opinion or
ideas to share. I can be contacted either via Facebook or
adele000@gmail.com."
I ask of you the same thing. Share with me your thoughts and ideas. While I am focusing on producing a book with an Australian focus I hope it will be valuable to others around the world also.
Bring on your comments!
