Call for Contributors

I got an email from the author of the What About when Mom is the Abuser blog today, and thought I’d pass along the information for anyone who might want to help contribute to this section of the book:

I am in the process of co-authoring a book about male victims of female psychopaths (which goes along with my blog What about when Mom is the abuser) and we are considering adding a section for female victims of female psychopaths/narcissists.  My request to you is this – if we do would you be willing to help me spread the word to people that might be interested in taking part in the survey/interview/research part?

Obviously anyone who takes part should not use any identifying things like their real names, town names, etc.  Also anonymous e-mail accounts are always a wise choice for people to send their summaries from.  One website that is taking part suggested that or people could send it to the site and they would cut and paste it into a different email that the site would then send on to.

We are looking for anyone who is willing to write up a summary of how they met the person and their experiences with them.  Obviously children who have parents like that would just detail their experience.

If you have any questions please ask.  http://whataboutwhenmomistheabuser.blogspot.com/

If you are interested, and want to send your summary to me to pass along anonymously, feel free to drop me a line. Or go ahead and contact him directly from the blog.

Update: Got a follow up email, apparently they’ve gotten a wealth of response to this from other sources, and they wont be needing any more, so um, nevermind I guess. 🙂

Still, if the subject interests you, check out the blog.

    I’ve been talking with someone about the topic of being touched in public, or by various people. I’m somewhat fascinated by what other people’s feelings are on the subject.
