Writing Women's Histories One Woman at a Time. Sunday, January 29, 2012. Following Seventeenth Century Rules. We started last week to look at some of the individual women who I am profiling in my book, “Tracing the Invisible Women Who Helped Birth Connecticut.” As I promised here is what happened to Hannah Spencer when she changed her mind about marrying Simon Lobell. Of course, the bigger price for such an offense, the gossip and avoidance of her neighbors, challenged Hannah. It is obvious that Jare...

Writing Women's Histories One Woman at a Time. Wednesday, June 29, 2011. Number Four of my 4-Pronged Research Plan. The last item of my research plan was to investigate what resources there are online. I was amazed at how much more there is available online than just five years ago when I started this project. As I said before, many organizations are working at a fast pace to get much of their materials online and available to everyone. The Godfrey Library ( Godfrey.org. It is also possible to just Googl...

Often as I traveled back and forth across the state, it amazed me to meet women and/or groups of women struggling with a project and had no idea that other women somewhere else in the state were having the same struggle or had already completed a similar project. They were missing a link. Here’s a great exercise. As you answer each question of a...While w...

http://deskwithaview.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html

Desk with a view. Saturday, January 26, 2008. I would like to be able to combine more than one feed option through Yahoo pipes. I have set up one pipe to search flickr for images of work, and it has a couple of filters. You can look at it here.

Originally uploaded by photopia / HiMY SYeD. I really like RSS. This is one...

Writing Women's Histories One Woman at a Time: September 2011

http://aliceplouchardstelzer.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html

Writing Women's Histories One Woman at a Time. Sunday, September 11, 2011. We Need to Expect the Best. Today I’m thinking about how expectations change lives. I’ve been reading too many social media comments recently about the low quality of self-published books.

My expectation is th...
