I will provide all contributors with a guide of areas to address, but it will ultimately be up to you on what you would like to say and how you express yourself; the final version will not be published without your approval.<\/p>\n<p>I am encouraging all bi women of color and different ethnicities to participate. The overall goal of this book is to effectively increase our visibility, educate others about our lives, and allow us a space in which we can talk about what is important to us today, and what we are hoping for the future and the future of our children.<\/p>\n<p>I am looking for women ages 18 and over, and transgender women are strongly encouraged to participate as well.<\/p>\n<p>I look forward to hearing from you and working with you.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you.
