It’s definitely not a manic Monday around here, my friends.
Anything but.
At least there have been no more The Kraken Lady adventures…yet.
I may see her at tomorrow night’s ballet class. Of course I’ll let you know if anything exciting happens, and I’ll pack the poop in case I need to do an impromptu self-facial!
On the brighter side of life, I got an email notifying me that a Huffington Post editor approved my latest submission! As always, comments, likes, shares, and checks payable to Dyane Harwood are always welcome, and they’ll all create good karma for you!

See you at the end of the week – this post doesn’t count! 😉
take care,
Dyane
Dyane’s memoir Birth of a New Brain – Healing from Postpartum Bipolar Disorder will be published by Post Hill Press in 2017.
Congratulations!
Thanks, Cassie!!!! :)))) Hope you have a good week!
So proud of you! Both for overcoming your anxiety and for getting published on HuffPost again! Yay! Great post!
Thanks so much, Kitt – you’re always there for me – I love you!
Right back at you!
Great post! I commented and shared it!
I really appreciated your taking the time to do that, Jim! :)) thanks and hope that you’re doing well!
Great article, Dyane. Yay for you. Be proud. 🎇 🙌 😉 👏 😊 👍 🎆
Thanks darling Van! 🚐
I love the special emojis you picked just for me!!!! If I could I’d give you a bouquet of these: 💐
❤️
Awesome, congrats!!!! And did I read that right? A radio show too? Again, awesome!!!!
Thanks, beautiful Michelle! I’ve done a radio show before, but it was 20 years ago when I worked as a personal trainer and the topic was fitness! I had callers phone in with questions (not my idea – the producer’s!) and I set up some friends to call me with wacky questions. Unprofessional? Maybe, but it was fun! Xo
Yay Dyane!! Before you know it you will be running the joint!!
Thanks, Vic! I like the sound of that….. 😉
Great article. Way to go!
Thanks so much, Bradley! :)))) Hope you have a great Thursday!
CONGRATULATION!!!!!!! I am so proud of you, budding journalist and a true mental health advocate!!! XOXOXOX
Thanks my sweet Lady Samina!!! (I can’t help it – I loved that Lady Mary blog performance you did so much! I need a sequel!)
Another great article on HuffPost! I’m so happy for you! You are helping to fight the stigma. So great that you overcame the anxiety and went to jury duty. Thanks for writing about that…I’ve served on two juries and you gave me an idea for things I can write on my new blog. Jury duty is a fascinating way to experience the reality of our legal system…yikes!
Thanks, Sharon – you’ve been a fantastic supporter! I’m totally thrilled that you’ll be writing on your new blog with your idea! I read your latest post about your upcoming book and how things are coming together (HURRAAH!) but I will return to comment. Lately I’ve been I reading blogs late at night on my Kindle, and it’s not conducive for writing comments unless it’s one or two words! 😉
Anyway, I’m so excited for you with your book and other projects!
Rock on! Xo
Reblogged this on Just Plain Ol' Vic and commented:
Hooray Dyane for getting another post submitted/approved by The Huffington Post. Please take a look and see what insight Dyane has provided us this time!
Thanks Vic – you already know how happy you made me by doing this…. :)))))
😁👍👊💥🎉
Great, Dyane!
Thanks so much, Susan!
I belatedly replied to your other comment on my “The Kraken Lady” post with a *new* idea for
The Kraken Lady, and you inspired me to come up with it! 😉 💗
And for you:🐦🐧 🌷
YAY for you!!!! Your writing career is just SKYROCKETING!!!!!
Thanks, darlin’. It’s a bit surreal, but hell, I’ve been a freelance writer for 20 years, so I’ll take it!!!! I got an email from The Mighty telling me they’ll publish my postpartum bipolar article (although they rejected the ECT one…) and DBSA agreed to share my ECT post, which will cause more haters to write, but I don’t care! 😉 XOXOXO YOU!
Whoop whoop whoop all the way from across 3 great oceans and some real blasting sunshine 🙂 you go Lady girl
Thanks my sweetness! Sending you lots of love and hugs!!!
Thanks my sweet one!!!! I’ll be getting over to your blog today or tomorrow –
Spring Break really messed up my routine!
Love you! 💗
Thanks, Sugar Buns ❤
Printing out all your articles, gave ECT a third read, now printed out this one, visit, share on fb, comment could not find ‘like’ button.
Hey there my friend. Forgive me for not being clear…in order to like The Huffington Post article you need to press the Facebook icon thanks so much for your support as always I’m still under the weather today with something that feels like allergies or a cold or both! I will email you soon!
Great article with interesting links. I too find fear quite dominant in my bipolar. I tried to comment on Huffington Post but I had to sign in and couldn’t find where to sign in
Thanks so much, Pieces! Huffington Post makes it very confusing to comment! I hate the fact that people are required to use Facebook, for one thing, instead of something user friendly like Disqus. I totally appreciate your trying to comment – that makes me happy! :)))))
