I'm looking to do a story on older (50+) men and women with eating disorders. You can be currently struggling or in recovery. You could have struggled since you were younger, you could have had a relapse, or you could have developed an ED for the first time. What's necessary is that you were suffering while you were over 50. This is for a US-based and distributed magazine, so Americans only, sorry.
If you fit the profile, know someone who does, or works with this population, please drop me an email at carrie@edbites.com I can't promise I'll interview you if you write (I'm doing background research at this point), but I appreciate all of your feedback.
Thanks!
There are several women with whom I correspond OFF of my blog who fit this description. I have emailed them all, directing them to this blog post. Hoping that your story is a success! :)
ReplyDeleteBest of luck Carrie! For once I can say I am too young! (And hopefully pretty much recovered!).
ReplyDeleteThanks, Yoga! Much appreciated.
ReplyDeleteHa ha...I'm about three years too young for this one! Good luck, and if I can think of anyone who meets this criteria, I will forward your information to them.
ReplyDeleteAw shucks, the two of you are still spring chickens... ;)
ReplyDeleteI currently have a number of individuals that fit this description. If you'd like, email me a flier and I'll post it in my office for patients to respond to: eatwrite (at) comcast(dot)net.
ReplyDeletePS:So sad the 50+ is referred to as "older"!
Thanks...right now I've sent the idea and gotten a "maybe," which is actually really, really good. I will keep ya'll posted!
ReplyDeleteShoot, Carrie.. I'd be interested, myself, but I'm 43... Keep us posted!
