Update on Mother Muse Sequel

Good afternoon, everyone!

After three rounds of submissions to traditional publishers, resulting in tons of positive feedback but no bites for publication, we are going the self-publishing route again with the Mother Muse sequel. It will be bigger and better than ever, and have the distribution capability to reach a wider audience than the original edition was able to.

At this time, I am searching for foster, adoptive, lesbian, and other non-traditional motherhood perspectives to fill a bit of a gap I'm feeling in the upcoming collection. If you or anyone you know might be able to provide such a perspective through her writings (in the form of essay, story, poetry, letter, or photography), please email me as soon as possible to motherhood2009@yahoo.com. Submissions at this time must be impeccable and compelling - I have a solid manuscript except these perspectives, and am in the final copyediting and formatting stage of publication. However, if your piece is compelling but not quite fitting in these categories, I may be inclined to consider it/them anyway. It's all about rounding out this collection with quality works providing positive perspectives on the roller coaster ride that is motherhood.

Thanks so much for your time and I will be posting further details on the Mother Muse sequel as they are ironed out.
