Your Help Needed!

Hey all,

I’ve been on holiday for a while, but now I’m back in full force, looking for your help. This week I’m working on my publishing proposal. What I want to include is why my book “Not Your Mother’s Playground: A Guide to Open Relationship for Modern Folk” is going to be relevant. Do you want to read it? Do you like the angle of a guide book with personal stories included? (It’s really a more detailed version of this blog, in case you’re wondering.)

If you have anything positive that I can include in my proposal, even if it’s just a “Can’t wait to read it!”, please leave it in the comments on this post.

Thanks so much!
Samantha

    No, I can’t wait to read your book. I find it very interesting that people involved in open marriages are able to make it work. I would love to know what types if issues there are and how different people deal with them. I believe your book will be an enlightenment to me.

    Finally, a CANADIAN book that deals with the reality of open marriages and polyamory. Perhaps the time is finally coming when having an “open marriage” can be discussed early and openly as an option to monogomy. This is healthy, this is overdue, this will be on my bookshelf and into my teenagers hands.

    I don’t know that this is exactly the right forum, but I’ve wanted to voice my appreciation and this seems as good an opportunity as any. Although I’ve been following you for only a few months, your willingness to share the minute details of your life through both your blog and tweetstream have led me to see you and @stephgoulet as something of a polyamorous role model couple. Your example has been immensely helpful in easing hesitations through my personal transition to open marriage. I look forward to seeing your book on the shelves, and the opportunity to learn more from your experiences.

    I would find it particularly interesting and unique if there was a section devoted to child rearing in a poly environment

    This book is important now more than ever. Polyamory and other non-traditional relationships are gaining momentum. As our culture changes and evolves, some of the social barriers that restricted us are breaking down. People are more free to explore love for the sake of love, and the face of what that love looks like is similarly evolving. I look forward to reading Samantha’s book!
