we mainly did this for the money to pay for fertility treatment, i do not recomend courting the media its far to stressful.

I think you look really nice in all the pictures, but I can't help noticing that your face looks exactly the SAME in all three of them. It's somewhat eerie.

Hey Jools,
Well - you are a brave girl. Kudos to you !
And yea - the article really wasn't to derogatory at all I don't think. A bit disappointed by the comments so far though.
But playing with fire (media) didn't seem to burn you too badly this time.
Thanks !

You are one brave woman Ladyjools and I am proud to have you as a friend! I've read a few poly related interviews and I find yours to be the most articulate and positive yet. Thanks for representiing us :)

the first feature we did potrayed me as a greedy slut,
so this is brilliant compared to that.

I'm glad I didn't read it then. Sounds like a very biased.

That's cool, Jools. Nice to see your faces.
That was decent article though I do have some comments on the quality of the writing.(English weenie comments- I will keep them to myself:) )
Good quotes.
Thanks for sharing this.

That was pretty cool. I think media exposure is a good way to get people thinking about polyamory so it does not seem like such a foreign concept.
