Austin, Texas novelist Ruth Pennebaker, who's old enough to call herself "fabulous," writes about family, politics, marriage, friendship, feminism, aging and whatever else occurs to her. Her latest novel, Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakthrough, was published by Berkley in January 2011.

Well, you could have claimed you got your black eye because you were schlepping around NYC with Laura’s book in plain view and saved the “fencing incident” for a future escapade.

Catchy new title for your upcoming novel. Sounds as if it might hold the explanation as to why all those bras were burned in the 1970′s.
Well-Can’t wait to read your new book. I am sure I will enjoy it as I can truly relate. I have had many “nervous breakthroughs” in my life and have written about it too.
When I saw the title I wondered if you had read my blog? http://www.themiddlewayhealth.com/blog/?p=31 That is an article I wrote a couple of years ago and since have posted as a blog. The title is Nervous Breakthroughs: The Pleasure of Sadness.
Love the title, and I can’t wait to read it.
