Mel published in print today!

My buddy Mel at Actual Unretouched Photo has a piece published in the Christian Science Monitor today which you can view online at:

Suburbia's Fortress Mentality
Parent's fears are robbing children of their childhood

This was a blog entry - I think from a couple years ago - that Mel worked on, adding a little research and statistics to transform it into a great commentary piece - for which she will actually be paid!

Rejoicing with her today!

Love,

Congrats to Mel and hooray for your cheerleading. This is a perfectly timed example for my weekend's presentation "Blogging for Writers." Of course, you're a featured blogger/writer. :)

That's a good article, good for Mel!

And I fully agree; I too missed the days we could just walk down the street without fear of strangers or even neighboors. I miss the simple, small town life.

Wow, yay for Mel! That's a great article, although a sad one...
