The first meeting happened in a pizza restaurant chosen as neutral ground, with two social workers, the woman caring for them and two children, and a Santa's Village display still up in the window in late January. That paragraph belongs to an adoption story told here in chapters, and it is the reason to open this blog.

The rest is a general interest magazine, and a well made one. There is a sharp piece on social proof asking whether displaying your numbers is really all there is to persuading anybody. There are practical posts on opening rates, on fixing the mistakes new bloggers make, on which tools are worth using.

Around those sit curiosities: an excavated marble road, seven unpleasant facts about the human body, a dog condemned for its appearance, and a run of writing on getting older that refuses to be cheerful about it.

Thirty eight posts. Find the adoption chapters and read them in order. Everything else on the blog is a bonus.
