Things have gotten busy for me, so I've been negligent on my blog... but I just wanted to thank everyone who came to hear my talk in Sheboygan in Sept.! It was great fun for me, and nice to see that people are interested.

I'm still waiting to hear from Speck Press, where I submitted my chapters and book proposal. They say their review process takes a few months, so I'll try and be patient. In the mean time, I really need to find a few more publishers to try.

I'll be giving a talk about tattooed ladies (of course!) at the Mead Public Library in Sheboygan, Wis., on Saturday, Sept. 22, 2007 at 10am.

here's the info from their website (http://www.sheboygan.lib.wi.us/#):

Saturday, Sept. 22: Mead Public Library will present a free program, "American Tattooed Ladies, 1882-1995" at 10 a.m. Historian and librarian Amelia Osterud will discuss her research on the history of tattooed ladies of the circus, sideshow, dime museum and carnival. Call 459-3400, ext. 3437, for more information.

And, a nice piece in the Sheboygan Press!
