Review:
"A terrific collection of essays that women writers should buy. This is a book of our time. . . . An excellent tool for our turn-of-the-century writing toolbox."--Frances Payne Adler
"What I find particulary satisfying about "Sleeping With One Eye Open" is the way the different women's voices and dialects and souls sing together in a powerful symphony of language. This anthology should be read by both women beginning to write as well as by those who are more established and want to feel connected to a larger community."--Sue William Silverman, author of "Because I Remember Terror, Father, I Remember You", winner of AWP Award for Creative Nonfiction
"Presents a wellspring of inspiration and encouragement for women who wrestle with satisfying their gift of word."--"ForeWord"
"Well-written . . . All the essays will be inspiring to both active and would-be artists."--"Booklist"
