Welcome to the Military Spouse Books web page! 
(Check pages for more info, Pictures and Q&A.)

This website was set up as a source of information for Military Spouse Books. This project has recently changed. I am now collecting essays from all Army spouses, in these three categories:
  • From Single to Military Spouse and a New Way of Life
  • Family Readiness and How You Fit In
  • Coffees, Socials and Building the Team
The change in the focus of this project came after some input from a few amazing military spouses, aka: “The Sisterhood”. My original plan was for a simple project, working on something I’ve had in my mind for many years. The wisdom and insight from a few other spouses has helped reshape my project to better reflect the whole Army, and the strength of all our spouses.

The deadline for essay submission is 
March 15, 2011.  

The Army has changed a good amount in the 20 years I’ve been married to my Soldier. How have you changed in your time as an Army spouse? What have you learned? What would you like to share with other Army spouses? What advice would you give to a spouse who might walk in your steps someday?

For more information on submissions, please see the pages listed to the right. Check back often, as pages will be added/updated on a regular basis. You can also keep updated on the Facebook page: "Military Spouse Books" (click "Like" on the FB page). 

If you would like to submit an essay (or two or three?), please email: milspousebooks@gmail.com for more information and release forms. You will need to complete and return hard copies of release forms before the essays are published. 

I've been hearing from spouses who are excited about writing their essays, and from many other spouses who can't wait to read what we all have to share. Yeah! 

Army spouse bloggers have definitely been stepping up to this challenge. If you have a blog, please share this information with other Army spouse bloggers. You can link to this page and/or post the flier .jpg file (listed in the right sidebar). Each publication will have a section for bios of submitters, and a chance to share your blog title, address and brief description. What a wonderful way for military spouses to share and learn from each other. You are all a very motivating group of spouses!;)
