MARION FINDS HERSELF in a new sisterhood: the one of moms on the sidelines of their children’s after-school sports events. All good so far…except that the kids are imposing a few rules about what the moms can’t do (like scream too loud or otherwise embarrass them). Get over it, kids, Marion says. Meet her new guilty-as-charged, unrepentant sisterhood.
IN 1983, MARION PUBLISHED a piece in The New York Times Magazine that, impossible as it now may seem, introduced Alzheimer’s disease to millions of people who didn’t know what it was.

In today’s Op-Ed in The Los Angeles Times, Marion writes about just that. Learn more.
First time here? Here's the idea: TSP 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 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: 
As the suffix of its name suggests, 
No surprise, really, that sisterhood, often life’s longest relationship and always one of its most important, has been the Muse for so much creative self-expression by women, and also by men.
