Knowing Pains

By Amy Mercer

Have you ever wondered how other women survived their 40s? The new anthology, Knowing Pains, is an honest, humorous, thoughtful and diverse collection of essays by real women who aren’t afraid to tell their age and tell it like it is. Sex, marriage, love, divorce, motherhood, singlehood, passion, obsession. Nothing is off-limits to this group of new female voices that Molly Rosen, a mother in Northern California, has brought together to swap stories and compare notes on the desires, influences and events that have impacted and shaped their midlives.

The anthology features an essay by Literary Mama Columnist Ona Gritz.

100% of all book net proceeds will be donated to Breast Cancer Action ( www.bcaction.org) to support breast cancer education and advocacy.
