Rachel Tolman Terry
Sometimes I feel as if my laptop were my third child--the neglected one. Many days I spend all day changing diapers and making peanut butter sandwiches and looking longingly at the computer with a sort of guilty feeling. But at the end of the day the kids go to bed, and the laptop sits there patiently on my desk, ready for action.

I have two kids, 3-year-old Rebecca and 7-month-old Spencer. I started freelancing right after Rebecca was born and have published many non-fiction articles in magazines and online. Right now I'm working on a non-fiction book proposal and a novel, but I have a hard time staying motivated on these longer writing projects.

Thanks to all you supportive momwriters. Although I'm not very vocal on the list, I gain support just from reading about all your forays and successes.
