Verso: the thick and thin of it by Linda Bindner. Let me make one thing clear – I am not fat; by fat, I mean the rotund kind of fat, like the mother in Whats Eating Gilbert Grape. The floor-shaking kind of rotund, the kind where your car lists to the. Side when you sit in it. I am over the weight that is healthy for me. Tobe at, but I am not fat, either, and neither is the other half of the. Population that were told is overweight. Let me explain. Two years ago I got sick. It doesnt matter with. That dea...

Recto: what ALL moms do | Inkstains
https://inkstains.wordpress.com/2006/03/13/stains-everybodys-talking-about-it
Recto: what ALL moms do. Over the weekend, while the sleet was falling and falling and I was trapped in my house with my family, I did something that I try never to do: I read my local newspaper.

The fire with, among other things, stories. Single mom, married mom, older mom, younger mom? I shoooore do love you.&...

Recto: losing my self by Susan Wagner | Inkstains
https://inkstains.wordpress.com/2006/03/22/recto-losing-my-self-by-susan-wagner
Recto: losing my self by Susan Wagner. For most of my adult life, I was a size 8, which I was happy with. After I had Henry I spent a long time wearing a bigger size; about twenty minutes after I was easily able to slip back into my pre-Henry jeans, I got pregnant with Charlie. And after Charlie, I wore a 12, the biggest size I’ve ever worn. I have no idea. Was this change in my weight, in my self, unfair to my husband? Was it “ false advertising.

Verso: A place of one’s own by Jen Creer. Well, I was wrong. I don’t have a choice. But isn’t that fabulous, because I may not have clawed my way to having children the same way I carved out a writing life for myself. Who knows? The point is that the children aren’t going anywhere, and apparently, neither is the writing life. I want somewhere to put them. Emailinkstains at gmail dot com.
