Profile Information

What is your blog name?: Write About Birth

What is your blog URL?: http://www.writeaboutbirth.com

Twitter URL: http:///twitter.com/writeaboutbirth

Share a little something about yourself with other moms.: I'm unconventional, feminist, passionate about reproductive rights and of course, crazy about my two kids. I write about birth – natural birth, homebirth, unassisted birth, and anything else that is in any way related.

What is your blogging philosophy?: Blogging philosophy? Is there any such thing? I'm very new to blogging, but my aim is to be as informative as possible. When I was researching birth options, I snatched up bits of info here, and other snippets there... I would have loved to see all the info I eventually gathered in one place, which is what I am trying to do with my blog. In the process, I would like to have fun, and connect with like-minded people. I'd also love to learn from others! As a journalist the writing part of blogging is not a challenge for me, but blogging has totally different dynamics from any other type of writing, so it's an exciting challenge!

I have been blogging since...: I started my blog in July

I am not an expert at sewing, but it should be fun to try to make something out of all my old stuff. :) Today I blogged about a summer dress that I turned into a top that I will be wearing tonight. Fun, fun, fun! :) Thank you for the welcome to MBC! I look forward to taking a peek at your blog.
