Awesome Giveaway Alert: Win a Copy of My Little Red Book
Last year I had the opportunity to review a really great book–My Little Red Book, an anthology of short stories, essays and recollections of women’s first periods from women of all ages, from all over the world.
Being the body-loving, over-sharer that I am by nature, I could not get enough of the stories in the book from authors and activists you already know like Jennifer Baumgardner, Megan McCafferty and others.
Not only did Rachel Kauder Nalebuff, the Editor of My Little Red Book, compile a ton of intelligent, hilarious, emotional and celebratory stories, she is also donating all of the royalties from sales of the book–which has become a New York Times bestseller, by the way–to charities promoting women’s health and education, like the Health and Water Foundation, UNICEF, Forum for African Women Educationalists, Save the Children, Girls Inc., Planned Parenthood, Choice USA and many, many others.
The Hachette Book Group gave me the opportunity to give away 10 copies of My Little Red Book on the website I’ve been spending the bulk of my time lately, now that the second edition of the book is being released. Needless to say, I wanted to let all of the awesome body-loving folks who follow Menstrual Poetry know about it.
There aren’t too many entries yet, so the chances of winning a copy are pretty great. All you have to do is go to the giveaway post and leave a comment with your own first period story.
Because all of this takes place on a completely other blog, the comments on this post are closed. I hope you all enter and if you want to purchase the book, head on over to Powell’s.

Sex-Positivity
I'm passionate about sex-positivity and believe every sexual being should have the freedom to explore their sexuality safely and without condemnation. I even lost my ad network after my refusal to censor myself after reviewing feminist porn.So if you're in the market for sex toys, porn, books, etc. take a look at the retailers below, all of which are feminist-friendly.
Out Campaign
The OUT Campaign allows individuals to let others know they are not alone. It can also be a nice way of opening a conversation and help to demolish the negative stereotypes of atheists. Let the world know that we are not about to go away and that we are not going to allow those that would condemn us to push us into the shadows.
