Preparing for Reunion Sources: Ideas anyone?

So, I was contacted by a blog to write my relinquish /search / find/ reunite story for them. The hug challenge was that I had to do the whole thing in one post length and I do not do "brief" very well, as we all know. But, I nailed it down... it's like the readers digest condensed version. And it's up, it's cool. It's got a link back to here. #1) They are looking for more stories, so if anyone is interested, it's pretty easy to submit, etc. #2) While quickly realized that the blog is more or less for attracting people to sell DNA testing, It also will have a good chance of getting traffic via search engines from people looking for information in finding folks and DNA testing, so I suggested to the author that they should really do moire than have just heart warming stories that inspires people to find lost relatives, she should also have resources for to prepare for reunion.. coz lord knows, even if it's good.. it still makes you feel weird and overly emotional and kind of insane of times. Thankfully, she is very open to that.. so since I was MIA for some time, if there are any new good reunion prep sites, or posts, or whathaveyou.. please pass them on. I just hate the thought of people going into renions thinking Hallmark moments and getting blindsided.

More of an educational piece for mothers, but based on the experiences of myself and many other mothers I have spoken to.

Claud,

I just sent you via email three essays on preparing for reunion from my unpublished book of essays from my former newsletter. I hope you will find them useful and relevant.

Someday I will get it together to get a book out there! Let me know what you think of the essays.

Cheers,
MAC
