Flatback Handbook Still in the Offing

There's been a bit of a delay in the definitive Feisty Handbook. I'm afraid my timeline was overly optimistic in view of budgetary constraints, glitches in contacting certain key contributors, etc.


I am also considering a major structural/thematic/"genre" change: Concise facts interspersed with stories. As Rachel Naomi Remen, MD, argued so persuasively in her 2005 NPR interview with Krista Tippett, We are our stories. Our lives, our world, are made up of stories, not facts.


I have made a provisional decision to use this blog as a kind of laboratory for scoliosis/flatback stories. Please feel free to share yours!
