Thanks for dropping by to check out my new book.

It's based on the premise that we modern women are changing the breast cancer experience more than it changed us. That for some women, breast cancer may come with an epiphany about life, but for many, it doesn't. And that's just fine with us.   The lessons I didn't learn from breast cancer are lessons I had already learned, from my career, from my family, from life.   Those lessons helped me deal with cancer, so I've included them in the book, but every woman has her own lessons.

I hope you'll enjoy reading excerpts from the book. (Of course, I really hope you'll buy the book; Baby needs new Choos).   And then there's my blog, “It's Not About the Breast,” a title tip of the hat to Lance Armstrong, of course.   Read it out for musings and opinions on all kinds of women's obsessions, especially those that relate to body image.
