Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Cohhousing that has evolved in existing neighborhoods

[Diana Leafe Christian (diana]

Hi Melanie and all,

You're welcome! And boy is it ever true that intentional communities are widely 
(even we could say wildly!) diverse. A new kind of community I'm now learning 
about are those created by and for people who identify themselves as, 
"conservatives, libertarians, and those in the truth and freedom movements," to 
quote a leader in this movement. I wonder what the community culture would be 
like at communities like these. Like most cohousing communities and 
ecovillages? Or more, ah, authoritarian in structure? 

And I'm sorry to say, to my knowledge New Society Publishers has no plans to 
also offer Creating a Life Together, or my second book, Finding Community, as 
audiobooks. 

When you visit Earthaven next week, please email me to say where you're staying 
and let's get together for a visit. ;)

Diana
