For Immediate Release
Can a Single Mom Working as a Hairdresser and Dreaming of a Career in Comedy Make Time to Run for Governor? Only Your Hairdresser Knows for Sure Women can keep a lot of balls juggling -- but Judy may be pushing the limit.
In Life is Funny: A Riveting Tale of Comedy, Hairdressing, and Texas Politics, single mom Judy is putting off her dreams of becoming a stand-up comic until she finishes raising her two sons, fixes the hole in her trailer, breaks up with her new boyfriend because he's too nice, and helps her best friend fall in love. But when Judy takes a chance and wins a local comedy competition, she starts a chain of events that begins with her best friend being fired and her sons being harassed by strange men in trench coats and ends with an offer for her to run Governor. Will she or won't she? Only your hairdresser knows for sure.
Leigh Anne Jasheway-Bryant, the author of this hysterical debut novel, has written fourteen other funny books, was a popular humor columnist for Family Circle for eight years, won the 2003 Erma Bombeck Humor Award Winner for her funny-but-true article on how her first mammogram caught on fire, and hosts her own radio show, Women Under the Influence of Laughter on KOPT AM 1600 in Eugene, OR. Life is Funny: A Riveting Tale of Comedy, Hairdressing, and Texas Politics can soon be purchased at bookstores, Amazon.com, BN.com, and other online booksellers.
