Reader Battle
The Random House website has a new reader that lets you preview books. It's similar to Amazon's "Look Inside" feature, except you're able to paste the code into your own website. You can see it action on my Fiction & non-fiction page with Joy of Doing Things Badly. Nothing yet for Having it All? or Miss Black America. Blogger blocks the scripts that make this possible, which is why I'm pointing you to this page. Look for it in the left-hand column. RH also has a reader version of Leslie Steiner's Mommy Wars book. I've linked to that from my anthologies page.

If you go to that page, you'll first see a link to the reader HarperCollins has developed. If you want to read three pages from my Bitch in the House essay, click on it. Unlike the RH reader, this will take you to the HC site.

I was just wondering if you could give me some advice. I would like to write about african American women and the relationships in their lives. I do not know how to go about that.

The Joy of Doing Things Badly was an inspiration to me. I was created "perfect" by my mother, but I don't like being perfect! I am now in the stage where I giggle when I mess up. Thank you for writing this book!
