When I was pregnant with my son, my husband had one job. ONE JOB. OK, maybe two: do his part to make the baby and get me to the hospital in a speedy but safe way when I was in labor. My darling little boy is evidence that my husband got his first job done. He probably even deserves a gold star for that job. But the story behind his failure at job number two is beyond absurd and is featured in the hilarious new book Clash of the Couples, which is out today!
My story, Fetus, Take the Wheel, is just one of the essays you will find in this anthology, and I am thrilled to be included in a book with so many fantastic writers. I’ve been giggling through each story and love seeing inside some of the ridiculous and hilarious fights other couples find themselves in.
The book has been endorsed by a number of humor and publishing heavyweights, including Josh Blue, comedian and winner of NBC’s Last Comic Standing, and Abby Heugel, popular humorist and blogger at Abby Has Issues. Here’s what they had to say:
“If you’re looking for a fun read, check out Clash of the Couples. I could relate to the couples in this honest and hilarious collection of modern relationship tales. Clash of the Couples bursts with the real stuff that couples fight about and will make you laugh while shaking your head at the ridiculousness of it!” said Blue.
Heugel shares his sentiments. “Married, single, destined for spinsterhood—it doesn’t matter what angle you come at this book from, you will find something that you can relate to. And you will laugh, because even if you can’t relate to that particular situation, you’ll just be glad that it happened to somebody else.”
You should totally buy this book. Hey, why don’t you buy one for yourself and buy one for your friend who is getting married? Wait, I’ve got it, buy one for everyone on your holiday shopping list! Look at how helpful I am!
