Icarus member FaithRR is looking for submissions for a zine about madness and motherhood. See her thread here.

I am drafting a zine on the subject of madness and moms. No, you don't have to be a mother to submit, but I am really hoping to get some input from mothers who walk the mad line. I am looking for contributions on all aspects of the relationship between madness and mothering. How did your mom handle your madness? Was your mother affected by madness? How does the system view mental health as it pertains to mother love? Why do people get their children taken from them because of "mental health challenges" -

I am in the initial phases of planning and conceptualizing, pulling together my own writings. At this point, there is no deadline - but, I am hoping to get this thing cranked out within the next couple of months and so, yeah, maybe there is a deadline. Let's say June 1st. Go write an essay or a memory or a rant about CPS or a sweet short story . Send it to me.

Madly,
Faith
