An occasional Weekly contributor sends in the following news:

An unveiling! I'm so excited to share my web site with you.

It's www.tucsonmama.com

I hope that it can serve as a hub of information for Tucson women and families--I know there are a lot of us with similar interests and concerns, and it would be helpful to be able to share information. For example, I got something like a million email about the Baby Club Congress event, which led me to conclude that there are many of us interested in these types of events. I also know that many of us are artists and freelancers, and it would be helpful to be able to have a place to share our wares and ply our trades, so to speak.

I plan to write about local events and issues, as well as general mama/woman stuff. Dad and non-mama input always welcome. I want to publish really good essays on a variety of subjects that relate to women and parenting. We'll maintain a list of links to important and/or interesting sites, and generally pool our resources online.

PLEASE let me know what you want, what you don't want, what interests you. Comment, send me an essay or a suggestions for a review. Send a picture of your kid, your foot, your favorite tree. If you make something that Tucson mamas might want to buy, or do something unique that we might want to pay you for...email me. I want to publish reviews of local artists and craftspeople. If there's a local issue that you think needs to be spotlighted, let me know.
