not a soccer mom
online dating in the '00s, strip clubs, and soccer mom cars
Welcome to the Sunday post, today with an original essay that prods at the cliché of “soccer mom” in an unwholesome manner, below the italicized announcements.
In honor of my birthday month, I’m selling copies of my first book, Excavation, for a discounted price of $12, which includes shipping, or 2 for $20 (get it for a friend, teacher, high school student!). You can Venmo me at Wendy-C-Ortiz, and include your address, as well as whether or not you’d like the book signed to you or someone else.
Among the praise for Excavation: Small Press Distribution’s Nonfiction Bestsellers List (2014 - 2015), one of “11 Groundbreaking Books about Women Making History with Their Thinking, Activism, and Courage,” Bustle; one of the “70 Best Biographies and Memoirs,” in Medium (as picked by Powell’s Books), one of the “Best Queer Books Set in Every State” (California), Autostraddle.
