It's been a while since I've posted while I've been working on short stories. I've started submitting them so we'll see.
But that isn't what's kept me up at night.
Of course, politics has kept me up. But I don't want to get into that.
So I asked my mother, a professional hypochondriac and a semi-pro insomniac for some sleep tips.
She wrote an article that was published in the "Funny Women" column at The Rumpus under the title: "Sleep Tips by a 90-Year-Old Insomniac." So there.
I'm proud of her. It's a charming piece. And the editor at The Rumpus was really supportive (I know because I served as liaison for the editing process since my 90-year-old mother isn't familiar with Google Drive, where the editor had posted changes to the article).
The thought of her getting published when I haven't written a humor piece in a while isn't what's keeping me up. Honest.
But I am publishing a blog post about her article and including her clip on my list because she doesn't have a website of her own, and it seemed like the best way to track her humor pieces, too. She's already at work on another piece.
