Lena Dunham’s book proposal was leaked. Looks like I’ve got a little reading to do this weekend.
-
Have you seen this article that’s been floating around about women and likability? I agreed with some of it and the general premise, but are we really still stuck at this point where you can only be seen as a nice girl or a bitch?

I knew Annie Mohaupt from way back when we were both startup indie business (I had my stationery line, and she had her shoes). She’s still going strong with Mohop, and I loved reading this story about how she brought manufacturing back to Chicago after trying to move production overseas to China.
-
Holiday crafts for the pre-school set! (I’m so glad Eleanor is finally of an age where we can do some fun crafty projects together.)
-
Getting to know my smart camera (when Brandon hasn’t stolen it away, that is).
-
Heath Ceramics has gnomes on sticks? Whaaaat? (Too cute.)
-
They Might Be Giants partnered up with The Global Fund for Children. It’s a good kids’ song for a good cause.
Enter to win a $50 credit to spend on photography by Chelsea Victoria. Good luck!

December 8, 2012 at 1:23 pmI really like Lena Dunham (loved Tiny Furniture) but was quite surprised at the $3.7M she got for the book! But, more power to her.
Btw, I really enjoyed your lessons in BYW.
Aloha…

And I was surprised too. $3.7 million — wow! I’m sure I’ll be buying it though. I can’t help it; I like her.

December 8, 2012 at 7:07 pmI agree with your point about the likability article. I wish articles like that weren’t so dependent on stereotyping women. But I guess it gets hits and sparks debate so I’m sure its not the last we’ll see of it.

December 9, 2012 at 10:52 pmYou’re right, it’s gone. I suppose they were asked to take it down.
