I’m thrilled to say that Mombian has won the GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Blog for the second time! This one’s for all the queer parents working every day to raise our kids with love and make the world a better place for them.
I’m honored that Mombian has again been nominated for a GLAAD Media Award in the “Outstanding Blog” category. I won in 2012, and am humbled to be in the mix this year as I head towards my 18th blogiversary. Here’s more on the blog nominees and on other children’s and family categories.
Merry Christmas to all who celebrate! Posting will be light here for a bit while I make merry with my interfaith family, though I may still have a few pieces for you in the coming week. I’ll also keep up the fun on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. Please join me!
I’m slowing down posts here for a few days to enjoy some family time before the summer ends. I may share occasionally on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, though, if the mood strikes me, so please follow me there. Wishing you and your families a good end of summer, too!
I started this blog 17 years ago today as a resource for lesbian moms and other queer parents, and I remain forever grateful to all of you for reading my posts and interacting with both the site and me. A lot has changed in 17 years, however.
I’m honored that Mombian has once again been nominated for a GLAAD Media Award as “Outstanding Blog.” I won the award 10 years ago now (how time does fly!), and am humbled to be in the company of the other blogs nominated this year. I’m also thrilled to see so many great nominees in the “Children’s Programming” and “Kids & Family Programming” categories.
Merry Christmas to those who celebrate! Posting will be light here for a bit while I make merry with my multi-faith family (though next week I will post the second part of my year-end interview with leading LGBTQ family advocates, in which they share what they see ahead for 2022). I’ll also keep up the fun on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Please join me!
Summer is upon us, so as usual, I’m going to scale back posting frequency a bit (but not entirely!) through August in order to spend more time with my family and work on a few behind-the-scenes projects. I’ll still post a couple of times a week and be on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, so I won’t disappear completely. I hope you and your families are enjoying the summer, too.
Mombian is 16 today! A special Sweet 16 thanks to all of you who have read, commented, shared, and otherwise engaged with this site, other readers, and me over the years.
I am thrilled to reveal a project I’ve been working on for months (and in some ways, years): the Mombian Database of LGBTQ Family Books, Media, and More: over 500 books, music albums, movies, games, and toys for and about LGBTQ families. This is not just a booklist: you can search and filter by categories, tags, and more. Want board books with queer dads? Picture books starring Black transgender girls? Memoirs by queer moms about adoption? You can find them, among many other combinations!
