Squeakers

September 14th, 2005 § 3 comments

Ah, our Sweetie Pie. We thought we gave birth to a beautiful little girl. Turns out we spawned an angry seal.

Most newborns mewl. They make these soft, pathetic little cries that break the hearts of new mothers everywhere. Not my child. My child squeaks. And barks. And snorts. And groans. If you close your eyes, you’d think you were in the aquatic section of the zoo. Unless you’re hearing it at 2 a.m. In which case, you think you’re trapped in a very bizarre David-Lynch type nightmare from which there is no escape. Which, I suppose, there isn’t.

  • Who I Am

    I read, I write, I occasionally look to make sure my kids aren't playing with matches.

    My novel, MODERN GIRLS will be coming out from NAL in the spring of 2016.

    I mostly update the writing blog these days, so find me over there.

    More about me and my writing.
