    Well, you can create a blog.

    You can join any number of adoption sites.

    You can join an adoptee support group.

    You can write a book and find a publisher.

    There are TONS of ways you can write your story, honestly.

    Were you looking for something more specific?

    I certainly have lots to talk about, as far as my adoption story goes, I have no clue how to blog, but yeah, that sounds like a starting point, as well as writing a story. Do you know specific sites, that I could use... Thanks for your help.

    You an set up a very easy and free web site and blog at

    Weebly - Create a free website and a free blog


    I will add that the adoptive parents feeling hurt and betrayed if you go looking or start a relationship with the birth parents is very common, just not talked about a lot, everyone wants the loving happy ending to show on TV

    And often the meeting with the bio parents go very badly also.

    Well true, but here's the catch, I just want to write out my whole life story, I lived with my adoptive mom for 15 yrs, it was her first cousin that gave me to my adoptive mom, they hate each other, which hate is a strong word, but can be used in this situation, I grew up with brothers and sisters, and later met my bio mother, lived with her, for a while, then was sent on my way to life as I knew it, there is a series of events that occurred and I haven't even mention my fathers, or my other brothers and sisters, my life has been totally crazy, and well, if I could write about it, it would just be great!! I do not want my own site, I just want to write, mainly to see if I relate to anyone, or can encourage anyone with how strong I have been. My relationship with both sides of the families have been anything but normal, and honestly it was the most drama for me, when I met my birth mother, sisters, brother, as well as my birth father, honestly I am blessed to have these experiences, and they make me who I am today, and I'm glad god has given me the chance to met my birth parents, it would drive me crazy if I didn't e I know where I came from, it is a tangles web though, I'm just looking for help on where to talk about my adoption, and where it had taken me in life... Thanks so much for your help!
