Did you know that next week (Sept. 10-16) is the second annual World Childless Week? WCW aims to raise awareness of the childless not by choice (CNBC) community, specifically. (Why is it held on/around Sept. 16th? The answer might surprise you!)Last year I wrote, "I didn't write anything about it here before, partly because I didn't learn about it the week was underway, and partly because I am still wading my way through the abundance of great related reading I found online." I added, "Through my reading and by following links, I discovered a few new childless/free blogs & sites, which I've added to the blogroll & resources links on the right-hand side of this page. Check them out!"
This year I'm more aware and slightly better prepared ;) and I'm looking forward to many new discoveries and a lot more great reading! Check out this summary of what's planned and find out how you can get involved. One simple way to do so: join the #IAMME campaign on social media! Details here.
(I don't know if I'll be able to post every day during WCW on the daily themes -- but I did want to make sure you all knew about this event in advance!)

Hey! My Microblog Monday post was about World Childless Week and #IAMME. Though I'm currently traveling and so can't do much else for it. Glad you're publicising the week though.
ReplyDeleteI already had this written before you posted! But good on you for doing #IAMME. I will edit my post to add your link. :) I may still do it myself...
