I've been told a few times that I should write a book. Now I found one that I could have written! Really, I could have penned this thing in no time flat!
Amazon gives a review of the book as this, "Tackling everything from the peer pressure to have children to resisting the siren call of suburbia". Doesn't that sound like me? Except of course, I'm a forty-something woman so I'd have to add ten years worth of wisdom to the piece. I haven't actually read this book, but it says the author "mouths off" about being older, pregnant, raising kids, peer pressure, marriage, dieting, etc. That sounds like me! I can mouth off about all kinds of things! Have you read my blog?
My sister, the NaNoWriMo writer, really
I think I shall declare "rant" a verb! Maybe I'll rant a book! Right in between changing diapers, tripping over toys, plucking gray hairs and helping my husband grade papers (He hands me the essays students write in Spanish so I can roughly translate. Not like it matters, they can't spell in Spanish either.) In fact, I might be able to rant a whole series. Wouldn't that be fun! A full set of published PMS!
It's a nice idea; in the meantime, I have other things to do that tear me away from typing. Chasing my children! Currently, one is standing on her bounce and spin riding zebra and one is reporting a dead rat in the glue trap out by the garage door. Who has time to rant a book?

I know I couldn't rant a book. I can rant, but not in an organized fashion. However, if you did rant a book? I'd be first in line to buy it. :)
Just copy your blogs and put them together. Voila! Your book is finished.
Rant a book!
Just today I was talking about the book I'll write when I retire from teaching. I already have a title: That Explains a Lot. As in, when you meet the parents of a crazy kid and think...
Yeah... I think I could do that one myself ;) It's just the skinny part that I have to work on. That's it. THAT'S why I don't have a book deal.
There's always the NaNoWriMo in 2010!!
