First of all, thank you for your interest in Emerging Gently. Over the years, I have occasionally been contacted by members of the media, and while I am happy to help you with whatever project you’re working on, I ask that you give this page (and at least some blog posts) a read before you contact me–you may find that some or all of your questions are answered here or in some posts (try a keyword or topic search on the blog). Please be aware that this blog is a hobby for me, and I apologize in advance if I do not respond to you right away. I try to check emails at least once per week.
What I will do:
- I will offer advice and information for those inquiring about Christian Science, being a Christian Scientist, and being a former Christian Scientist, and I’m willing to discuss ideas with you and help you to clarify your understanding; Christian Science and the experiences many of us who have left it have had, can be confusing and difficult to understand for someone who is unfamiliar with it.
- I will do interviews, discuss my own experiences, write op-ed pieces, and offer comments or advice.
What I will not do:
- I will not participate in or support the production of “reality” shows.
- I will not give talks, or other public appearances, but I am happy to direct you to other former Christian Scientists who are willing, and are experienced public speakers.
Other things to know:
- I prefer email as my primary means of communication, but we can change it up as we work on things.
- I reserve the right to end my involvement with your project at any time–if I do, I will fully inform you of the reasons why.
- I have a demanding day job, as well as many other interests; and as I have said, this blog is a hobby for me, so I may not respond to your inquiry right away, as I do not check emails daily; however I try to respond to emails as quickly as I can.
- I own the copyright on all content in this blog with the exception of any guest posts or other materials as noted–check out this page for more information on this, and my guidelines for using content from this blog.
