Around the Bend, humor column

 

People are talking about "Around the Bend":

"Your writing is delicious, like chocolate brownies melting in your mouth." --Lynda Hope Kaplan

"I've read some...of your columns on your website and some of them made me laugh so hard I think I got a six-pack from it. Keep it up, we all could use a good laugh!" --Mary Lyons, Valley News reader

"Thanks to the blurb on your writing career [in the Berkshire School alumni magazine] I found your website and am extremely entranced! Great stuff! You are extremely talented, and, based on my long ago observations, likely the funniest woman in the Republic of Vermont, or perhaps in all of New England....You have a new fan 6,000 miles away. --Mac Simpson, Hawaii

"Nicely written, filled with truth. Great columns." --Judges, 2004 New England Press Association awards

But wait, there's more here....

I am now an award-winning columnist! The New England Press Association has announced the results of their 2004 Better Newspaper Competition, awarding me first prize in the humor column category for Class 2 Weeklies.

Look for my essay, "This Home Improvement Show Is Not Ready for Prime Time," in the New York Times Bestseller Nesting: It’s a Chick Thing, published by Workman, edited by Ame Mahler Beanland and Emily Miles Terry. 

What's so funny?

It all depends. To many people, there is nothing especially funny about living in Vermont; marrying a native Vermonter; moving into an old farmhouse with Great Potential but no electricity; trying to work from home while raising three children;owning a small flock of chickens; or just struggling to keep up with life in the 21st century. (Correction: Chickens are absolutely funny.)

But these circumstanceswhen they are not making me bang my head on the nearest hard surfacedo make me laugh. And since I started noticing that giggling to myself makes other people nervous, I've found a healthier outlet: I share my observations in my column,"Around the Bend," which appears biweekly in the Addison Independentof Middlebury, Vermont.

Thanks for stopping by.
