<p>First copies took a little longer to get back from the printer to me than I thought. There were some minor things I wanted to change, like the placement on the spine is off, little things like that. But I&#8217;m leaving it alone for now as I need to get this book out. I should have the rest next week and will mail them out to writers and customers. I wish I could have had them to folks by the holiday, but that of course would have required me to have got myself together um, earlier in the year. </p>
<p>More good news, this Friday is my last day at work for 2 whole weeks (my day job is as a substitute teacher) so I have all the time I need to devote to some marketing work for this book. Such as, compiling press releases &#038; mailing them out (local and national), working on the Futuristic Motherhood project website, and more. In the publishing world, this is considered doing things backwards. You&#8217;re supposed to do all your press/marketing stuff roughly 3 months prior to the book coming out. I&#8217;ve kind of always blew that rule off since I&#8217;m all Queen Indie Media, but if I want to take my little indie biz to the next level I&#8217;ve got to play by some of the rules. Live and learn. <img src='http://www.mspmedia.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

Dread Mama: Beautiful, Natural, Successful Locks by Trula. The Dread Mama book contains info about locking various types of hair. Topics include Techniques for locking hair, Maintaining locks, Dreadlocks and children. ISBN#: 0-9749480-4-7</p>
<p>I have had my current set of dreadlocks since 1998. Prior to that I had dreadlocks from 1992-1997. My children have worn locks or other natural hairstyles their whole lives. The Dread Mama Book takes a lot from my experience with having and nurturing dreadlocks for so many years. Dread Mama is for the general dreadlock and natural hair community and those raising children with dreadlocks. Dread Mama is full of support and encouragement as well as info on products and other dreadlock information.</p>
<p>Do you maintain or operate a business, program, or organization focused on dreadlocks and/or natural hair styles, or just want to stock this book in your store? Select wholesale rates when you order the Dread Mama book.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Finally, at long last, after a tumultuous 28 months, Futuristic Motherhood is out December 4th, 2009! and I should have first copies in my hands week of December 7th. All writers (I am sending email but also posting here) please be sure to email me your current mailing address. It&#8217;s been so long since this project started that I am sure many of you have moved or in other ways updated your info. Payment is still $100, I am making good on that promise as well so it is important I have your correct mailing information. I do not need any social/government ID numbers. That was an error on my part, I misunderstood the amount paid out before I&#8217;d have to submit paperwork on it for tax purposes. Rest assured, any social/government ID numbers I have received have been thoroughly shredded and I no longer have your info.</p>
<p>Also &#8211; please check out the <a href="http://futuristicmotherhood.com">Futuristic Motherhood website</a> for updates, I am turning that into an interactive site and all writers for the project get their own page. So please also send me any info you want listed on your page, including links to your blog/website and a photo.</p>
