Not What I Expected: The Unpredictable Road from Womanhood to Motherhood.
I was honored to be asked to illustrate the cover for this amazing anthology of stories and art.
Read more about the book or purchase it at Paycock Press.
"A collection that is by turns heartening and harrowing, insightful and irreverent but, page after page, always honest. We don't remember our own birth, we can't reflect our own death, so the squawking arrival of parenthood and its glorious life tangle is our only true relationship with the cycle of creation. Here, in essays, poems and personal dispatches, is a sketch of that singular experience. The best thing you can say about book on birth? It delivers. And this one does."
– Geoff Boucher, Los Angeles Times
