Beschreibung

From the author of the Bunny Suicides series and Beer Makes Daddy Strong comes a hilarious collection detailing all the endearing oddities of motherhood.    Mommy loves chocolate cake (no matter how bad it is for her), has magical spit (removes any stain!), and loves spa treatments (especially when she’s not the one paying). Whether she’s admiring her shoe collection or hiding Daddy’s favorite grungy T-shirt, Mommy’s always there doing her best to be the greatest. Including sixty all-new cartoons from Andy Riley, Wine Makes Mommy Clever is an affectionate, witty tribute to moms everywhere.  Praise for Beer Makes Daddy Strong   “This will make you laugh. It is a piece of artwork, really; a collection of cartoons capturing those ‘dad moments’ that can be humiliating, embarrassing or just plain stupid.” —The Daily Telegraph   “Laugh-out-loud tour through life as a first, from the first ultrasound to holiday traffic jams and pipe and slippers time.” —News of the World   “Funny, true, and—speaking as a dad—embarrassingly accurate.” —Chris Addison

    How To Write A Novel - Your Step...

    If you have fashion in writing and you want to learn How to Write a Novel, then get a copy of this guide. 
    The writing process is a little bit different from one person to the next, but fundamentally, it's very similar. When someone sits down to write, there tends to be an awkward "uninspired" moment in the beginning, when you begin to get over the doubt and the thoughts of not knowing what to say and then jump into it anyway. Usually once you've gotten a few sentences out - sometimes a paragraph or two - you suddenly slip into "the zone", that inspired and motivated place where the work comes out effortlessly and you can just keep going for pages and pages. 
    This book isn't about telling you how to write or making assumptions that everyone goes through the same process. Quite the contrary - I'd like to point out right now that not every writer will follow a process. Some follow no process at all. I'm here to simply share some things that work for me and help me to keep my ideas and thoughts organized so the stories make sense. There are a number of ways to do that, and I'll cover some of my favorites. 
    Most people write for themselves, and many people don't necessarily publish a book. But those who want to write a novel and are intimidated by the idea are the people I'm writing this book for. 
    One of the questions I ask myself the most is, "Why is it so hard to stay inspired?" Maybe you get stuck on a part of the book or the thought of 90,000 words scares you. Either way, there are some little tricks and activities you can do in order to maintain a steady focus and inspiration. 
    HowExpert publishes quick 'how to' guides on all topics from A to Z by everyday experts.

    “This book undid me in all the best ways. Everything is an Emergency is a brilliant, honest, necessary book that exposes the intricacies of the human brain while showing us the way creativity and friendship can anchor us. This is a must-read for anyone who has ever wondered if they see the world a little differently.” –Ada Limón 
    A New Yorker cartoonist illustrates his lifelong struggle with OCD 
    Jason Adam Katzenstein is just trying to live his life, but he keeps getting sidetracked by his over-active, anxious brain. Mundane events like shaking hands or sharing a drink snowball into absolute catastrophes. Jason has Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, a mental illness that compels him to perform rituals in order to protect himself from dangers that don’t really exist. He checks, washes, over-thinks, rinse, repeat.  
    He does his best to hide his embarrassing compulsions, and sometimes this even works. He grows up, worries about his first kiss, falls in love with making cartoons, moves to New York City — which is magical and gross, etc. All the while, half his energy goes into living his life, while the other half is devoted to the increasingly ridiculous rituals he’s decided to maintain to keep himself from fully short-circuiting,  
    Then, he fully short-circuits.  
    At his absolute lowest, Jason finally decides to do the things he’s always been told to do to get better: exposure therapy and medication. These are the things that have always freaked him out, and they continue to freak him out. Also, they help him recover.  
    Everything is an Emergency is about all the self-destructive stories someone tells himself, over and over, until they start to seem true. In images surreal, witty, and confessional, Jason shows us that OCD can be funny, even when it feels like it’s ruining your life.  
    This illustrated memoir on OCD by a New Yorker cartoonist is a must-read for anyone interested in mental health awareness, psychology, or biographies of famous people. 
    It also makes for a great gift for comic book lovers, geeks, and nerds of all ages.
