Compensation varies and is to be discussed with candidates.

We are looking for interviews, research articles, study reviews, & personal essays in the areas of domestic violence: emotional, verbal, & physical abuse, as well as rape & sexual asault.

This project is focused on abuse in the context of sexual partners (spouses, couples, lovers). We seek input & involvement regardles of gender, sexual orientation or legal status of the relationship.

Of particular interest are cases where there are children in the family, though other areas/situations will be considered.

Along with essays & interviews with survivors, family members of victims, counselors, those who work/volunteer as advocates in the areas of domestic violence, we are looking for more clinical & statistical information/research as well. For along with personal stories, this project will be looking at the institutions involved.

Institutions to be evaluated include:

social service

police & law enforcement

education

hospitals & medical professionals

criminal court (judges, DA, victims witness offices etc)

family court (guardian ad litems, lawyers, etc)

non-profit organizations who work either with victims or work in areas of legislation

If you have a story, or an interest in the area of victims rights, please contact us!

Spirituality & Sexuality Project

Expires 04/15/2006

Is Paid

Authors to be published in the book will recieve one copy of the book, and of course be credited with a few lines, including URL etc as requested.

We are working on a print book, Spirituality and Sexuality, and are looking for authors &/or interviews in the following areas:

Buddhism

Bahá'í

Christianity has taken some beatings, and there are many differences in Christian faith, so I'd like to see if we can include say Mormon, Catholic etc positive perspectives included.

Confucianism

Jainism

Kosher sex

Muslim perspectives (A male and a female perspective on this, as many 'Western' folks are less than understanding & appreciative of Islam.)

Tantra practitioners, any and all faiths are encouraged to contact us.

This book is to show the ways in which spirituality & faith are linked to our sexuality. We are primarily looking for personal stories & experiences to be shared ~ either by the author, or via interviews. However, we are open to discussing researched pieces which reflect the traditions, literature, and culture of religion and sexuality as well.

While the thrust of this book is to show positive links between the two areas, we are interested in negative stories as well, especially if there are lessons to be learned.

Information on teaching your faith and sexual health to children (either from 'what you were taught' or 'how you teach your children') are also welcome.

As this book falls under the Sex-Kitten.Net imprint, we are very interested in female points of view, but are not discounting men nor male writers.

If you are a writer with ideas, submissions or an interest in this project, please contact Gracie at Gracie@Sex-Kitten.net, putting "Spirituality & Sexuality" in the subject line.

Please do not send attachments until requested ~ they will not be opened.

Please contact us as soon as possible, thank you!

(Feel free to forward this information to an associate you feel would be interested!)
