DESCRIPTION:
An inspired (and inspiring) collection of confessions, conversations, and art about the true, exhilarating, entertaining, and difficult aspects of remaining creative while raising kids. It's a smart, sexy, alternately funny and heartbreaking look at balancing art and motherhood told in the artists' own words. In a world where young mothers are discouraged, this is an incredible, empowering, and much-needed source of inspiration, not to mention a damned good read. Including voices as diverse as a transgendered teenage couple, an academic feminist, a flamenco dancer, a punk rocker, and a poet in the forms of essays, photographs, and illustrations, this eclectic mix of musings proves that becoming a mother is an expression of creativity, not a way to silence it.
