Who's Blogging Here?

'She Said, She Said' is both sides of the sister story. A digital dual memoir by TSP's oldest sisters, Marion Roach Smith, 52, with Margaret Roach, 54, it celebrates alternate realities, tenderly and yet bluntly illustrating the universal truth that no two siblings experience anything the same way. How to explain that truth? Nature? Nurture? It’s a little of both, and also neither. And here, under one virtual 'cover,' is what that looks like. Marion, a writing teacher, radio columnist and author, and Margaret, former editorial director of Martha Stewart Living turned blogger, don’t look, act or talk alike. Listen in, and watch what happens. And don't hesitate to interrupt; we're used to it.

Welcome to Our New Blog Network

First time here? Here's the idea: The Sister Project is a network of blogs about the many facets of the word sister, and the concept of sisterhood. A sisterhood of sister blogs, you could say. Whatever sister means to you, from identical twin to sister-in-law (or in friendship or in feminism), we’ll make room to listen in about it or express it on TSP. Like the slogan up top on our homepage says, “Don’t you have something to say to your sister?” We've got galleries of art and literature by and about sisters, and a Sisterpedia of sisterly trivia...but now we're getting ahead of ourselves. The quick study: Learn more about TSP, and how to find your way around. And oh—a giant, sisterly welcome.
