Dear RTS contributors,

Hope this finds you all well and thriving.

After our July issue (Vol. 3, No 3) themed “Disease-Addiction”, we are now open to submissions for our October issue which focuses on “parenting”. Some of you have already sent in great entries on various aspects of parenting. We look for forward to receiving more gems from you as we know that parenting is a vast topic closely aligned with “child development” and “spirit of the family”. Whether it’s physical training, good nutrition, care and support for the ill, confidence building, or spiritual enrichment, parents and/or guardians have the key role to play in securing the life and future of a child. Even in grown-up life, children and parents retain a unique relationship. Whether as a child or parent, or both, we have valuable information and inspiring stories to share. So let your stories, views, and memories come alive through RTS.

We are looking for both poetry and prose (more prose) including interviews for various sections. Submissions will remain open through August 2011. Please write now to editor@recoveringself.com to submit your parenting article or idea for one.

In healing word and spirit,

Ernest Dempsey
Editor
Recovering the Self
