CONTRIBUTOR

 

Blindsided by a Diaper: Over 30 Men and Women Reveal How Parenthood Changes a Relationship (Paperback)
by Dana Bedford Hilmer

"Packed with essays by some of the best known names in self-help-including Hope Edelman, Dr. Susan Maushart, Beth Levine and Adam Wasson-as well as a few child-besotted writers from other disciplines, Bedford's anthology of newborn baby angst is by turns heartwarming and hilarious, and perfect for freshly-minted parents. Much more engaging reading than the typical parenting book, and, arguably, more honesty as well. Readers will be happy to join Bedford's community of new parents, and will love sharing favorite essays with their own crowd of postnatal newbies."--Publishers Weekly

Doing Good for Goodness’ Sake,
edited by Steve Zikman. Contributing writer, “Keep on Rockin’.”
Published by Inner Ocean Publishing, 2004.

“The difference one person makes might be very small, but small efforts can be essential, as the first-person anecdotes collected here show…These are tales of small, simple actions of generosity that are remembered years, even decades later. Each anecdote is followed by a series of similarly simple actions the reader can take to help another. This warm book’s title is totally accurate—these are heartwarming tales that should inspire anyone to do some good just for the pleasure of helping.” –Publishers Weekly
