Ask Me About My Divorce: Women Open Up about Moving On (Seal Press)


Ask Me About My Divorce: Women Open Up About Moving On is a spicy, bracing, riveting selection of essays by women from all walks of life. The unifying thread is "I got divorced, and it rocked my world." Although divorce has so far been lumped in with death and taxes, for these writers, it was a portal to stepping into their best lives. Praised by Publisher's Weekly, Redbook, Mothering, and more, this groundbreaking book offers women a bracingly honest, funny, heartfelt and stigma-free way to consider the big D...and correspondingly, their past, present and future.


Laura Andr� received her Ph.D. in art history from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She was an Assistant Professor in photo history at the University of New Mexico from 2003-2007. Currently she lives in Albuquerque and works for an independent bookseller specializing in rare and contemporary photography books.

H.K. Brown won Honorable Mention in the WOW-Women-on-Writing Flash Fiction Contest, and wrote The Ground Rules, a screenplay that was optioned by a production company in Simi Valley, California. She has completed the manuscript for a divorce recovery memoir entitled Even Good Girls Get Divorced. Ms. Brown currently resides in Laguna Beach, California.

Elaine Soloway is the author of The Division Street Princess: a Memoir (Syren Book Company, 2006). This coming-of-age tale of a young girl, a family grocery store, and an old neighborhood in the 1940s was named a Chicago Tribune Best Book of 2006. Currently, Elaine is putting the finishing touches on her second book, She's Not The Type, a coming-of-middle-age novel also set in Chicago.
