hey mamas- as you can see from my title, i have tons of questions but i'll try to keep it short and just ask for some direction.
i've been writing/journaling for myself forever, but never really had the desire (well, never thought i'd be able) to write anything for anyone else to read. i'm actually beginning the process of becoming a birthing from within mentor, and a couple days after i registered for the workshop i woke up in the middle of the night with my mind absolutely racing. oh my gosh. my heart was pounding- i have never felt so inspired. i want to put together a book filled with women's birth stories, poetry, photos, artwork... i can see it in my head, but i'm not sure how to get there. i really want to create something beautiful that will inspire women to consider how amazing natural birth can really be!!
:
so, i'm asking you far more experienced women- where should i begin with this? i've emailed the women i know in my natural birthing community, talked to friends and family, and put up a blog. am i starting in the right place? what about publishing? any thoughts for a really excited but total newbie? thanks so much!
