Just to add a voice on these two subjects. 1. I agree that Red Tent is a great read but it is based very loosely on the Bible. Anita Diamant, the author, is very clear about that in her own thinking and talking about it, but the book has somehow taken a life of its own. It is worth reading. 2. I also agree with the comments on the letter to Ikea. The letter that was shared in Lactnet is the one that you throw away the next morning and then you write the letter that you're really going to mail. The letter should be short and to the point. No one is going to read more than about one page. The details aren't that important, what's the main point you want to make?
