My recent interview with Shondaland, sharing about the complex emotions related to adoption, as well as my forthcoming book, Adoption Unfiltered.

@NicolePajer Happy to share all the complexities from a perspective several yrs out. Memoir has been called "a difficult story with brute honesty and impressive introspection" (PW). And: "A disarmingly honest memoir" & "Fiercely personal" & "unflinching honesty, authenticity, & vulnerability"

I hope we reached those who needed to follow this important conversation. Thanks, @sspencerthomas for all you do on behalf of this cause!

@KevinBarhydt They're important sources of comfort and play, aren't they?!

@FauxClaud Absolutely agree with you on that, Claudia.

@LightOfDayStory Thank you.

@KevinBarhydt @Twitter Goodnight, Kevin! So nice to be on this panel with you.

@thenames_kaelyn @SocialWkrKaty @mcs_counsel To me, in this case adoption positivity comes from nonadopted ppl who don't grasp adoption's complexities, and so dismiss adoptees who share any pain. There's certainly room for you to share happy experiences. I frequently share about BOTH my happy and sad ones. Both matter.
