Hi Trey, I found your article about Genarlow Wilson through a Google search and I just wanted to thank you for spreading the word. I especially appreciated the link to Gov. Purdue. I immediately sent him an e-mail demanding Genarlow's release. I was compelled to do something about this and you provided me with the information. Thank you so much! Together, maybe we can make a difference. By the way, I do have a comment about the title of your book. None of the titles reflect the concept of a dating father. The first title that came to my mind is, simply, "The Dating Father". If I was a dating father, that would be a title that would grab my attention. Not, "Cad Dad" (puzzling). After coming up with "The Dating Father", I came up with another idea and I really like it. Follow me on this. The title is "The Doting Father", in black lettering, but the 'o' is crossed out in red (not enough to obliterate the 'o', one should still be able to see the 'o') with a red 'a' above the 'o'. Are you a doting father? Yes. Are you a dating father? Yes. Are you both? Yes! The crossed out 'o' evokes confusion about the situation and the effort to find a balance. I hope my suggestions help and, if nothing else, I hope you were amused.

Peace,

Saul Dapsis

You go Trey! I'm sure those women are lining up to go out with you...

Over here in Cali, I'm in the same boat, post-break up. I'm back out there and feel like I'm 13 (you're a few years ahead of me). Ha. My journal is full, too. Wish I could take a look at yours. Hope you're having a ball,
Rachel

What about the title "Balancing Act".

It came to me when you were discribing
what you were writing about. As a
single mother of a 14 yr. old daughter,
who thinks she is 30, I balance my life
constantly. If I didn't I would come up on the short end and be a crabbly mom. I run a horse farm, do all the work myself, and try to date. Not a joke, though sometimes I think I am kidding myself since I don't have lots of time. Good luck with your search, I too
believe I am the marrying kind, but what exactly does marriage mean to
me these days, that's the question.
Thanks. Kirstin

Ok, Trey,
So, some potential titles for your new book are as follows:

• "Shoots" and Ladders
  
• Chutes and Lovers
  
• One Dad's Guide to Diapers and Dating
  
• Go Fish
  
• Dads are Real Men Too

I vote for "Play Dates". Very appropriate. Before my divorce, when I had a daddy, I lived for the play dates with co-non-working-moms with wine bottles in their diaperbags. After reading your blogs, I, too, feel I should keep a journal. My favorite daughter remark (she is now 10) is "Don't you have a daddy?" in response to my friend telling her she had to work in the morning.

Ha Trey,
I just read your article "My dating adventures post - divorce"
I like what you had to say but don't give up on finding the right person. I married my high school sweet heart after college. We have two wonderful kids together. I have been divorced for 10 years now. I met a wonderful woman just after I was seperated from my ex wife. I met her paddling outrigger canoes - paddling kept me sane during this ordeal - and we just had our five year wedding anniversary. I tell you this because I was one of the guy's that was "never going to be married again". She is my best friend - and I never thought I would ever say that about a woman. She would be with me even if we had to live out of the back of my truck. She has stood by me through thick and thin. Don't Give up.

I read your story, and it seemed like something I too went through. You get so close, only to find yourself back at point A. I think that you should find out how your relationship with Christ is so that you can learn to be in love with yourself again. You have probably figured it out already. I am a 25 year old single parent of a 5year old son, and an 18 month old daughter. I am learning to love myself. Sometimes I feel like I will never marry, but only God knows what my plans are. I just have to make the decisions that are pleasing to him, and not to bark up forbidden trees. Take care, Godbless.

The title of the story should be called. The emotional Journey to find "Self".

Since i caught your artical on msn I kinda peeked into your blog. I love your writing style.

I like actually the title

Chutes and Ladders

and also a blog you made earlier.. Don't yuck my yum

this is the type of title that is going to grab attention and make people wanna know who why and what!

good luck with all ya do

Jen
