I Only Smoke on Thursdays

Front Cover
iUniverse, 2002 - Fiction - 264 pages
"I have the ability to act interested in something a guy is saying when I'm really thinking about how cute my new boots are."

Meet the girl who could be you - if your perfectly planned life fell apart on Valentine's Day. Comfortably situated in her twenties, she is happy and sure of her future; until the day a waitress at some Mexican restaurant changes this smoker's life from absolute certainty to absolute insanity.

In this Ab Fab meets Bridget Jones adventure, follow our heroine through three years of good dates, bad moods and friends who always want to go dancing on Thursdays. This say-anything book is full of two-week relationships, way too many cigarettes, and the birth of her split personality, Glamourina.

Take a voyeuristic look into the mind of a girl who plans her life through daydreams and lip-gloss, while discovering the meaning of life at the bottom of a vodka tonic.

This could be the story of your life, if yours were as funny, tragic and fabulous as hers.

"Don't read this book on the bus. People will think you're a laughing lunatic!"-Richard Reid, Northwest Cable News
