Kim and I wanted to share some very exciting news with you all. There is a new television network coming to town! "The Autism channel"...a network devoted to all things autism will be making its debut in late August. The channel will offer a wide variety of shows dealing with things like early diagnosis, different therapies, legal rights, and research just to name a few. Of course a show very near and dear to my heart (as well as Kim's) will be "The Blogger Ladies" featuring none other than myself and Kim! On it we will be discussing various topics and some of the blogs (from the directory- naturally) that discuss them. We are very excited to be a part of this wonderful project-and look forward to discussing your blogs. Stay tuned for more information-as we will post it as it comes in. To all of you who answered my post "Calling all bloggers!"..now you know the project we were working on! Thanks so much for sending your links..please keep them coming!--Kathleen
Make sure to check out the demo video and finally see Kathleen revealed! :) We're so excited by this project and the chance to share with a wider audience all you wonderful bloggers and the insights and wisdom autistic bloggers, professionals, and parents have to offer to those in similar situations. --Kim
You ladies look beautiful, or should I say Kim looks so lovely, regardless of which wig she wears...Good luck! You've worked very hard for a long time to get here.
Now that I've said that...this is SO DAMN UNBELIEVABLE TO ME. Fifteen years ago when Ben was diagnosed, the only autism I had heard of was Rainman. I talked with one other mother who probably saved my sanity. My, how things have changed.
Thanks, Rose. Things have really changed, haven't they? I was so alone when Bobby was diagnosed in 94--barely any internet--few books, and no real support system.
We've come a long way, but we've got miles to go, yet. But we WILL get there!
We are happy to post guest pieces and showcase the bloggers on the directory.
We do not edit these guest posts and we aren't vetting them for accuracy. We are posting them. If readers have an issue with the content of a post, please direct your comment to the author of the piece in the comment section.
We will not accept obviously offensive posts, but we are not going to engage in micromanaging the content of our bloggers when we carry one of their posts.
