Welcome

Welcome to my new site!

The Nauvoo Times is closing its doors, but I hope Dear Cyndie can be a place for questions and answers about life, relationships, manners, laundry and anything else that is on your mind or mine.

An archive of my past columns will remain at Nauvoo Times, and new columns will appear here.

If you are new to me, you'll quickly notice that I'm Mormon. Many of the questions I answer arise from Mormon life and I use a Mormon vocabulary without explaining the various terms (bishop, branch, Beehives), but I hope the underlying principles of my answers apply in many settings, whether religious or not.

All of the questions I answer are real questions from real people. In the next few weeks I hope to set up a way for you to send me your questions. For now, if you have a burning question, you can leave it in the comments. All names and email addresses of people who write to me remain confidential.

I hope to make this site more attractive and functional in the next weeks. Thank you for visiting   Dear Cyndie.
