Three Ring Circus is a nonfiction anthology of stories
by dual-career parents about how they manage to "balance"
parenting, their relationship and work, while still maintaining some
semblance of sanity. We are looking for true stories focusing on the
joys and frustrations of parenting while working, as well as tips and
tricks for keeping it all in balance. Stories should be about your experiences
as a dual-parent, working couple and written in a style which is honest
and open - the way you wish you could be with your friends, family and
coworkers.

Signing in Rancho Santa Margarita Our reading in the Rancho Santa Margarita Borders turned into a real family affair with the arrival of contributor Morrey McElroy's mother and sisters-in-law. How fun it was to get to rave over someone's work to people who were truly supportive of the arts. It was also nice to see Nancy, Elliot and Juliana Lefko who turned the long drive into a spontaneous overnight trip and Shar and Rick Gundzik who made time in their way-too-busy schedule to catch the show. The Rancho Santa Margarita store was a great place to host a reading. They had us set up right in front of the Children's sections so some folks listened in on the sly as their kids flipped through picture books. Others stopped in before the presentation to say they're so busy "juggling" their kids, careers and marriages they couldn't stay for the reading. But they did buy books! |
