Bio
I write. I read. I homeschool. I sew. I knit. I make dolls. I have anxiety. I'm married. I have a billion children (according to my brother's way of counting: one, two, a billion). I'm an activist. I'm a liberal. I'm a homebirther. I'm a geek. I'm a Gleek. I'm a Sherlock fan. I'm defensively Southern. I'm celebrating a decade on LJ this year.

Oh, and I vote in local elections, and urge you to do the same. The most meaningful politics are local politics. Get involved.


If you're looking for my series of cloth diapering essays, you can find them all here. My essays on homebirth, "Birth Safety as a Binary Condition" and "'Brave' has nothing to do with it" are both public entries. You can feel free to link or copy & paste as you see fit, just please credit it.
