You're Invited... to the See Mom Run NJ Book Launch Party

I've raved before on this blog and others about the magical powers of Beth Feldman. This woman is such an inspiration to me... I can't even begin to tell you. She seems to collect other fabulous women everywhere she goes and is an amazing connector. Her drive, energy and connections are limitless, and she puts them to work inspiring mothers and women to follow their passions and make their dreams come true.

I'm incredibly excited to be part of Beth's latest project, the See Mom Run humor anthology, 32 side-splitting essays from the world's most harried moms. In addition to myself and Beth, contributors include Tracy Beckerman (author of widely syndicated column Lost in Suburbia), Dawn Meehan (author of the Because I Said So blog as well as one of the most forwarded funniest emails ever about an ebay listing of a Pokemon card), Liz Gumbinner (force behind Mom-101 and Cool Mom Picks), Melissa Chapman (columnist for Staten Island Advance and contributor to Time Out NY Kids), Cheryl Lage (author of the Twinfatuation blog and the Twinspiration book, Jen Singer (author of MommaSaid.net and the Stop Second Guessing Yourself book series) and too many other hilarious women to list here. As you can see, I'm in such amazing company that I'm still pinching myself to be so lucky to be included.

This Friday I'll be heading back to New Jersey to celebrate the launch at a free reading at the Ridgewood Y. Melissa, Jen, Tracy, Beth and myself will all be reading from our essays. The event is from 7-9 on Friday night and I really hope that all of you tri-state area readers will join us. I promise some great laughs involving naked photo shoots, infants used as mops, severe sleep deprivation and other tales from the edge of motherhood.

If you live in Texas, Arkansas, or California, fear not. You can also get your own hot copy of See Mom Run at Amazon today for less than $10. But if you're anywhere near Ridgewood, NJ on Friday night, come on down and say hello.
