[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't see why you had to mention that she was a SAHM in your post. Seems irrelevant and just opening yet another door to bash SAHMs. I'm sorry that you helped a person out and didn't get a response but this could have happened with anyone.[/quote] OP here. Again, I was a SAHM for three years. Maybe I should have put that in my original post, but my point was--this person has no recent experience, and no contact in a field where I have more recent experience and more contacts. In this particular part of life, freelance writing, she is starting from Ground Zero. So everything I gave her, including story pitches/ideas, was a huge leap forward for her. I think that's relevant. I think that's a bigger "gift" than, say, telling an attorney friend who's asking for potential client leads about a lead; presumably, she'd already have a base of clients and contacts.[/quote]
