Tiny Beautiful Things

My friend, who is a librarian in Connecticut, told me I had to read this book. She said that it reminded her of me, of the kind of stuff I say to her when her life is a shit show.  

I seriously WISH I wrote like this. Or that I was as clear, and funny, and compassionate, and ON TARGET with advice as this woman is. And frankly, I wish it had been around when I was being such a dumbass. Maybe it would have slapped me awake.You may recognize Cheryl Strayed.  She’s the “overnight success” who wrote Wild, the book that Oprah is going on and on about.  If this book is any indication of what one can expect, I’m going to buy Wild right this freaking minute. Just as soon as I finish writing this. And brushing my teeth.

Anyway.  If you resonate with my message.  If you’re not thoroughly offended by my potty mouth.  If you like raw honesty, even when it seems politically incorrect, you will ADORE this book. It will make you laugh, and cry like a bitch.

Maybe it will inspire you to stop the madness and reach out for a little help.

Consider this, my love, an early Christmas gift from me.

Check out my book

Straight-talking, funny and brutally honest, How To Eat The Elephant will give you–yes, you–the push you need to haul your ass off the sofa and position it in front of your computer long enough to produce a real, live book.
