So I’m a paid writer… for the NEW YORK TIMES!
Ok, it’s one piece, and it’s for their blog, but still. The NEW YORK TIMES.
If you are so inclined to take a gander. And leave a comment. And tell them how awesome I am and that they should have me write all the time. Or, just read it and let me know your thoughts.
Thank you!
Happy Halloween!


Good job on the article! Lots of nice comments, too. Yay for you!
Great post! And you’re right, Boo does look like Fred - I never realized that before. LOL
I can’t even tell you how much I love that picture of him from last year! The joy on his face is what Halloween SHOULD be! Not about someone else’s agenda.
I am so proud of you! Way to go!
This is so fantastic! I have followed your blog pretty consistently since the famous Halloween post and I have grown to admire you. I don’t know you (obviously, haha) but can tell you are a fantastic mother, writer and all around great person. Congratulations to you! It makes me so happy that something really wonderful came out of a simple blog post. Enjoy it. Savor it. You deserve it!
Congratulations, you did it! By by exposing our son and dressing him up like a girl for Halloween and convincing people that it was “his idea” you have successfully gotten the attention you wanted and have been able to advanced your career. Congrads!!!!
AD, you need to speak up. It’s hard to hear what you say when your voice filters up from underneath the bridge…
This is wonderful news!
Holy crap is right. Congrats!
Way to go!!!
Brill!
Loves it!!
Awesome! Wow the NY Times! Big Leagues now! Keep up the great blogging.

Hey, congratulations! I hope you don’t mind if I’m hatefully jealous for just a little while. :-)
Mega-congratulations! So happy for you!!
Just as your original post, you’ve stated your position succinctly and eloquently. Your children are fortunate to have such a thoughtful parent. Thank you for being courageous and honest.
Congrats!!!
Congratulations!!! (I was going to just write, “Congrats,” but this was big enough to merit spelling out the whole word.
