I am so swamped between work, school, and parenting that I never got around to writing something. I really did want to – but life gets away from me sometimes.

Dear Reader,
I received several emails similar to this from women who had intended to write something. Several others, when asked to write, responded, “Great topic, but I’m just too busy. I do intend to find time to read the newsletter though!”
Since the theme of this issue is “Children in Our Lives,” I wasn’t too surprised.
But luckily several women were able to find time to write. And what a packed issue this is! In addition to several excellent essays on this issue’s theme, we off er various other features, including a recap of the November elections; a report from the APA conference; and an interview with Myriam Brito, a leader in the Mexican bi movement.
Remember: this is your forum. Please write in. Tell us about your life. Share your stories. We welcome poetry; short fiction; book, film, art and performance reviews; interviews; letters to the editor; artwork, and more. Our email address is biwomeneditor@gmail.com.
Finally, if you can afford to help out, we could use your financial support. We send newsletters to community centers, youth and college groups. We give out newsletters at events. We have a policy of sending Bi Women to any woman who wants it, regardless of her ability to pay. And it costs quite a bit to do all of this. You can support bi visibility by sending us a donation, or simply by becoming a paid subscriber.
Bi for now,
