Anyone willing to share their story on a public blog?

Hey there. I've posted here once or twice but it's been a while so here's a short intro. (I post fairly regularly on the TTCAL board)

I'm 36, been married 5 years to my best friend, and in the past 18 months I've had two pregnancies, both of which ended in early missed-miscarriages.

I'm co-editing an anthology of writings about "wanting family" - more info on our website: https://balaustineanthology.com/

We're keeping a weekly blog related to fertility, loss, and alternatives to the "traditional" family, and I'm in need of some adoption stories. (successful or not, whatever angle you feel you want to share). I don't know a whole lot about the topic so I'd rather let someone else who's more involved share their own experience. 

If you're interested, you can reply or DM me and we'll talk details.

Thanks for reading!

    Sounds really neat! Can you use submissions from women who have not completed an adoption yet? I would love to help out, but we are still waiting for a match. :-/ We had an *almost match last summer that fell through, but that's about it.
