Greetings,

Issue 7 of *Connections: ezine of unschooling and mindful parenting* is
now available online. To check out a sample issue, the front cover, or
to subscribe today, visit http://connections.organiclearning.org

In this issue I'm pleased to welcome Schuyler Waynforth to our list of
regular writers and to present Laurie Chancey's debut column,
"Unprocessed," where she talks about growing up as an always unschooled
child. We've also introduced a new segment by Ren Allen--"I-Tribe"--in
which she offers creative inspiration and challenges as a spin-off of
her yahoo group, Imagination Tribe.

Articles in this issue discuss topics like the benefits of late reading,
the joys of learning without school, the importance of family stories,
and even how one unschooling mom helps her child pursue learning and
autonomy despite the law. Our feature author this month along with
Laurie Chancey is Sarah Briand, who treats readers to an insightful and
inspiring look at unschooling transformation and process in her article,
"The Dragonfly."

With a heavy heart I'm also announcing today that we'll be saying
goodbye this issue to Anne Ohman, whose column "Oh How We Shine!" has
been inspirational to so many of us over the past year. Anne will be
leaving us to walk forward in the direction of new opportunities and
adventures, and we wish her the best of luck.

Enjoy!
