Well, friends, the world is falling apart, male supremacy and fascism are on the rise globally, and… it’s gift guide season?? I have mixed feelings about gift guides for obvious, unoriginal reasons. My knee-jerk response is to be annoyed with them, but then I look at those made by my favorite authors and always find them creative, non-consumerist alternatives to the holiday ads I am being served everywhere else I look.
So in that spirit, here are five things I am giving friends and family this year that you won’t see on any other gift guide.
Don’t forget you can also get my book, Touched Out, in paperback now! It makes a great under-$20 gift for new and old moms. I have also been told by many women that they have given my book to their male partners, who in turn said it taught them so much about what their partners were going through. So, buy my book for men instead of getting them another shaving kit!
If you’re new here, you can read my interview with , just published over at her brilliant newsletter . The conversation is a great introduction to Touched Out, and to where my writing is taking me now.
Please also buy books from this Mad Woman winter reading list as you top off gifts! All affiliate proceeds I earn from purchases you make there through the end of the year will be donated directly to Transanta. The books on the list are recs by me, your fellow subscribers, and books featured at the newsletter lately.
