Judith's Favorites
of Her Published Articles
This page
is intentionally the hardest one to find in the site because it's not
really relevant to the present purpose. So if you explored this far, thank
you. There's nothing here but a few links to a few of my favorites of
the hundreds of stories I've written. I hope you enjoy them. Judith

Aftershocks:
Terra Firma No More A year after the Loma Prieta 'quake,
near the epicenter in Santa Cruz County, people still felt shakey. From
the vantage point of reading it more than a decade later, it's not her
best writing, but the story is still significant to Judith and everyone
else who lived through the quake and the long rebuilding of the towns
and faith in the future afterward (the buildings still aren't all restored
in 2002, 13 years later).
Excerpts
from her book
Now outdated, but hey, it's my book! And I doubt I'll ever write
another, because writing a book requires too much for too little.
Why
There's a Male Mystique about Modems, which expresses a viewpoint
that was rather controversial in October of 1995, when the book that this
introduces was published. But it was the next year, 1996, that women finally
stopped resisting going online and started logging by the millions. Judith
likes to think that her book and the many media interviews she did in
the months following its publication helped that happen, just a little
bit.
What
Happened One Weekend You'll see why.
