Extra! Extra! Read All About It!

My piece about why I kept my last name when I got married will be running in tomorrow (TUESDAY, OCT. 24) Metro New York. If you are lucky enough to live in the City, pick up a copy on your way to work.

It's OK if you chuckle cruelly at my picture. (I had to take a new one after all that because the resolution was not high enough.) I hope you like the writing, though.

If you live outside of NYC, or missed the paper guy at your subway station this morning, Metro New York posts the My View column online. Read my name opus magnum, I will never be a Mrs. Husband, at your leisure. Online readers are deprived of my little floating head next to the title, however.

I really liked it, Suzanne. I also liked the part about your sister which I don't remember you writing about in your other blog postings about your name. Congratulations! I am very disappointed that I couldn't view the picture.

Congratulations on the article. It was well written.

I agree that a woman shouldn't have to give up her name just because she gets married.
My only question is what last name do children take in the marriage?
Please do a follow up article on this and have it published.

Also,did you go with a "Look at me. I'm a business woman" photo or with a "Hubba hubba, baby" one.

This is so wonderful and hopefully the start of your illustrious career as a freelance journalist.

Your brilliant article inspired me to write my own take on this subject.
I tried giving it to my local paper but they don't want it apparently.
Plus they said my picture would scare away their readers.
Thank goodness I have a blog.

Anyways, I linked to your article. And your blog.
Thought you should know..

Loved it, darling. I'm keeping my copy so you can sign it, and when you're famous I will sell it on ebay... er, I mean, I will put it in an expensive frame.

That was a great article! I enjoyed it. I regret missing your floating head however (not to be taken the wrong way).

The head is weird because it's just your head. No background or anything. Just pops right up.

Excellent article! It has so much punch to it, I can almost hear you reading it out loud...
