Big news!  Big big big!!!

The Memoirists Collective's resident blogger Kim Brittingham has sold her memoir to Harmony!

YAAAAAAAAAAAY!

The book is tentatively titled "Read My Hips", and Kim's working hard to make it available in late 2009. 

Kim was a finalist in our "Win a Shot at Getting Your Memoir Published" contest, and we were so entertained by her entry, we asked her to become a regular blogger for the MC.  Do we know how to pick 'em or do we know how to pick 'em?!  For those of you who've followed Kim's posts, you're probably not surprised to hear her book's going to be published.  Neither are we! After all, remember these groovy hits?:

Fat is Sexier Than You Think

An Angel in Bennigan's

Day Job Believer

Living a Writer's Life

Kim will be taking a hiatus from blogging for the MC to get her manuscript in tip-top shape just for you.  But you can keep up with her on her personal MySpace page. 

Congrats again, Kim!!!

Love,

The MC xoxo

Hooray for my favorite bogger of all time. To tell the truth, I'm not even a little surprised that she got published but that's not to say I'm not thrilled for her...Neil

PS, where the hell have you guys been?

Thank you SO much! I owe a huge debt of gratitude to the Memoirists Collective for giving me the confidence and motivation to keep writing. And I really appreciate the attention of everyone who continued to read my blogs here long after the contest was over.

Sincerely,

Kim
