The children are out of school for the summer and I’m taking a small break from my coursework. I am working on several new projects right now including ideas for a submission to a national parenting magazine. I am a bit nervous about submitting an article for a national magazine but I feel that now is the time to take that step. The articles that I have had published in small print publications have given me a bit of a confidence boost. Once I complete my research and select a magazine, I’ll be sure to post an update here at MHOWriting.com.

I have updated my Suite101 page to reflect my newest submissions to Suite. I added my Father’s Day Around the World article to compliment my series of articles on international holidays. I have always been fascinated in other cultures and traditions so writing these articles has been quite fun.
