When I read the little blurb on BookBub for this book, I was instantly intrigued.  Using the premise of Stepford Wives as a jumping off point – this book takes you on a real rollercoaster of a ride.  This is Stepford Wives from the viewpoint of a robot (or womanoid), who is starting to realize…

Some fat old ladies should avoid consuming inordinate amounts of trail mix. Trail mix in. Trail mix out. Just not as easy going out. You have been warned. You’re welcome.

Performing at the MCCV with my dear friend Chrissy Akard (who is in the hospital with an infected knee – get better Chrissy – you’ll always be a class act!)

Thanks to a beautiful illustration shared to a FB friend, I was introduced to the beautiful, whimsical and surreal art of Norwegian artist, author and illustrator Lisa Aisato (Lisa Aisato N’jie Solberg).  Much of her art features thin characters; but she has plenty of fat bodies represented in her art as well – especially older…

Remember when you used to get hearing tests at school?  They stressed me out so much.  I was stressed because I didn’t know my left from my right and I was sure they were going to ask me to use those identifiers during the test.  The reason I didn’t know my left from my right…

Right now, I feel I am in no shape for auditioning.  But while I’m recuperating, this seems a…

Let me tell you something.  When they tell you that the worst side effects from radiation treatment happen after treatment ends, they aren’t fucking kidding. Son of a bitch, this is miserable. I don’t know how it is for other folks, but for me, it’s not terrible pain or anything (well mostly anyway) just it’s…

One of my all time favorites to perform!

Olga Gromova is a cartoonist/illustrator/artist who lives in Moscow.  And her work is a delight.  There is something about Russian art and fat people that just goes together; especially old fat people and Gromova’s art mainly features fat old people and while I cannot read the captions (which I assume are in Russian), I can…
