One Great Reason to Have a Web Site


I was having a string of bad days recently. The old story: Too much work, not enough time to get it all done, beating myself up for not being productive enough. Wondering if it was time to just hang it up and find a grown up job. I am working so hard to write these articles and essays, snapping at my kids (and husband), feeling guilty...and for what?

Then my web site went up and the emails from readers started trickling in, many in response to essays I'd written. Smart, thoughtful, literate mail, which often made me think. Do not feel comfortable reprinting the correspondence, but one mom followed up her email to me with a lovely posting on her own blog. Thanks Tracey--you made my day.
