Mamaphonic Book Release Party at Jane’s Exchange in NYC!

Featuring Bee Lavender, Maia Rossini, Muffy Bolding, Laura Fokkena, Ayun Halliday, Lisa Peet, Victoria Law, and Katherine Arnoldi!

Jane’s Exchange
207 Avenue A (btwn 12th and 13th)
New York, NY 10009

All are welcome to join the celebration and partake in cake and champagne!

Tapping into the universal drive to etch out immortality (in this case through art and children) Mamaphonic will appeal not only to mothers, but to anyone who has ever wanted to leave a mark on the world. Mamaphonic includes confessions and conversations about the true, exhilarating, entertaining, and difficult aspects of remaining creative while raising kids. It’s a smart, sexy, alternately funny and heartbreaking look at balancing art and motherhood, told in the artists’ own words. In a world where young mothers are discouraged, this is an incredible, empowering, and much needed source of inspiration.

About muffybolding

Muffy Bolding is a mother/writer/actor/knitter/feminist/withered debutante who likes the smell of asparagus pee, and remains obsessed with the bathroom hygiene of her three children -- despite the fact that they are 23, 19, and 16. She is blissfully married to a cute Jewish boy who looks like Willie Wonka, but remains tragically in love with the dead poet, Ted Hughes. She has the mouth of a Teamster, and her patron saint is Rocco (pestilence relief.) Ms. Bolding lives in Southern California, where she enjoys typing words, making movies, and plucking the rings from the fingers of the dead. She was the co-creator and Editor-in-Chief of the award winning satire zine, Fresno Lampoon, and in between writing screenplays, carnival barking, and savagely threatening her trio of darling larvae with a wooden spoon, she currently publishes the zine, "Withered Debutante." More of her work can also be found in the anthology, "Mamaphonic: Balancing Motherhood and Other Creative Acts", the compilation zine, "Mamaphiles III: Coming Home", as well as in The Cortland Review and hipmama.com. She is currently writing and producing for film and television, and working on a book of essays entitled, "Inside A Chinese Dragon." She has slept around, but not nearly as much as she would have liked.
