More About This Book

Overview

Served alongside her breakfast in bed, this "momoir" will make any mother less inclined to notice the burnt toast, runny eggs and limp bacon. Warm and fuzzy like a pair of comfy slippers, but with a lollipop stuck to them. There is something here for anyone who has ever been a mother or had a mother.

Stories of finding joy in the midst of the imperfections of family life include:
*A selfless mother who spent so many years losing at Candy Land that even her Hungry Hungry Hippo died of malnutrition.
*Zombies that invaded a novel about to go to press and proof that revenge is a dish best served cold.
*How the author eventually won over her future mother-in-law and ceased to be referred to as "that woman from the internet"

Meet the Author

Susan writes fiction that is humorous without being contrived, true-to-life without being depressing, uplifting without being preachy and romantic without being sappy. She lives on the Big Island of Hawaii with her husband, Thom. They have a blended family of six children and are adding new above-average adorable grandchildren all the time. She enjoys traveling, spoiling her grandchildren and anything creative she can do in place of housework.

    A "Momoir" for Real Moms

    As the mom of a million kids (more on some days, less on others), I loved reading a book where the person behind the pen is as human as I am. I can't always get the dishes, laundry, and dinner done while simultaneously getting everyone to their various practices. Nice to know someone else struggles with real issues too. If you haven't had a chance to sample Susan's writing, this is a great place to start. Enjoy!
