Introduction

Hi, I'm Epiphany Alone. I write a personal blog called Abandon Hope, which launched in March 2006. I also contribute to Haiku! Gesundheit. which is written entirely (posts and comments) in haiku, and also to Erotimama which is an erotica site written for and by moms. Besides spending entirely too much time on the Internet, I am a stay-at-home mom to two girls, ages 4 1/2 and 1, own a technology consulting business, and a part-time college student.

I find among my friends off the 'Net, we spend a good amount of time sharing what we deem our less than stellar parenting moments. Sometimes these are funny stories. Sometimes they're not. Parenting is really hard stuff. This space is intended as a community to remind us that despite our insecurities (and what our kids say) we're not, in fact, the Worst Mama Ever.
