Judge a book by its cover
December 4th, 2006
Say hello to Single State of the Union: Single Women Speak Out on Life, Love, and the Pursuit of Happiness, a forthcoming collection of writing edited by my pal Diane Mapes. Seal Press will be publishing this puppy in April.
Doesn’t the cover rock?
I’m honored to have an essay in this book, along with writer pals Amanda Castleman, Litsa Dremousis, Jane Hodges, Judy McGuire, and fab women like Lynn Harris, Margaret Cho, Feministing‘s Jessica Valenti, and oh, I could go on and on…
But you can get the full meal deal in April. Or you can check out the entire lineup here, on the blog of lusty contributor Rachel Kramer Bussel.
If you can’t wait till April to make this pretty book your very own, getcher pre-orders here.

omg, that cover is GORGEOUS. Also, I can’t believe I haven’t submitted any essays to any of these Seal anthologies. What’s wrong with me?

Michelle, not to stir up a conspiracy – which might spark a book-buying frenzy: horrors! – but does the cover strike you as, ahem, a tiny bit phallic?
My writer pal Jenn Shreve just contributed to another Seal anthology: She’s such a Geek! Women Write about Science Technology & Other Nerdy Stuff. The artwork there features not one, but two missiles.
Huh?
Since when did a feminist press go for crossover appeal?
