What inspired you to write your memoir?
I was thinking about how crazy my mother is and it hit me that a collection of “my mom is nuts” stories would be a great idea!
About your Book:
Emmy winners, magazine editors, comedians, TV personalities, bestselling authors and social media superstars team up to bring you a laugh-out-loud book not about being a mom, but about having a mom, grandmom or mom-figure. And while it’s not OK for someone else to make yo-momma jokes about your momma, it is perfectly healthy — even downright hilarious — to find the humor in your own upbringing. In fact, these writers highly recommend it. So if you think your mom is nuts, pull up a chair. You’re in good company.

How did you decide how to publish your book and where is it published through:
I decided to self publish because I really wanted the book out before mother’s day and there just wasn’t time to shop for an editor or agent.
How do you see writing a Memoir as different from writing other genres of books?
If your family is still alive you have to be careful what you write!
