Just wanted to touch base with the girls completing the questionnaire--I know how busy you all are but if you would take a minute or two and if you get the chance I am so looking forward to receiving the completed questionnaires!!
------



***
Well...we have had some questionnaires coming in and OH MY----they are so interesting! I am really looking forward to more coming in!!

New blogspot!

http://farmgirlhistory.blogspot.com/

I am still accepting farmgirl histories for the collection--Please e-mail me for more information and the questionnaire!


The response has been extrordinary! Please let me know if you would like to add to our Farmgirl Collection of Histories....

******************************************
Any oral history buffs out there?

I am a member of the Michigan Oral History Association and would love to take some farmgirl histories!

It wouldn't be an oral history per se, because I would be forwarding a list of of questions I have compiled that I normally use in my interviews. And, once completed you can forward it back to me.

Eventually, I would love to be able to write a book about our dear farmgirl sisters, their history and how we have so much in common with each other-our love of the land, nature, and animals---our common thread....

Doesn't that sound like fun??

Any takers? Please e-mail me for more information!

It was fun!
And it made me think.
Would be some thoughts to go into one's journal if out of things to write.

Oh...EXPAND please!!

I felt constrained listing the questions like I did and I do have kind of a basic format going, but I did want you all to write as much or as little as you wished. Elaborating is what I do best!!

Do just that Michele. Write as much as you like No holds barred!

Okay?

Talk to you soon and I really appreciate your contribution to the collection Michele!!

melody,
I received the questionnaire but I need to know if we are supposed to keep it short and within the space provided or can we expand on a question if we need to?
