Dear So Sioux Me Reader,

I'm going to Utah and San Francisco for two weeks on Friday. Yay! Going to speak at Blogher about some my favorite issues. Very exciting.

I am open to anyone who wishes to guest post on either Blog Fabulous or Empowering Girls: So Sioux Me.

I'm pretty open about what kinds of issues you can address on Blog Fabulous. We talk a lot about gender roles, marriage, money, parenting, politics, economy, books, beauty ideal, self or body image issues, Mommy Wars (work v. stay-at-home), God, the meaning of life, book reviews, product reviews, marketing and media.

Empowering Girls: So Sioux Me is about empowering daughters. If you have a daughter (or even if you don't, I guess) and have something to say about how to empowering girls, you are welcome to submit a blog post. Common topics include marketing and culture, girl culture, toys like Bratz and Barbies, sexualization of girls, parenting strategies, extracurricular activities, gender roles and studies, book reviews, etc.

Please send any submissions to me by Wednesday Night so I will have time to organize and time-stamp post them. Please, include a very short bio and photo of yourself and the link you would like to go back to your blog.

You do not have to have a blog to guest blog for me. You could just be a reader who's dying to say something.

Send everything to traceesioux(at)yahoo.com .
