Breastfeeding is a Bitch...

... but we lovingly do it anyway.


My girl Cassi Clark wrote a book! During her own breastfeeding journey, she felt compelled to reach out to other women and discover if she was alone in the unexpected pain and frustration of nursing. Of course, she was not. This is her story, and the story of so many other women (or Saints, as she calls them). It is funny, and intimate, and warm, and empowering; and she let me design the cover for it! It is a really fun challenge to try and capture the spirit of a book, and hopefully draw in the prospective reader.

When the book was completed, and copies were in our own hot little hands; I got to go to Denver for Cassi's book signing, which was at The Horsehead - Cassi and hubby's favorite local bar/ restaurant. 

Cassi signing her book!

Though you can't see them here, there were babies crawling amongst the pool tables, and toddlers running around the couches. It was perfect! There were also cupcakes with boobs on them, and breast shaped gummies; thanks to the super sweet manager, Mel.

Here is the book announcement. Check it out!

Oh that is fabulous. The cover is great, vibrant and grabs the attention straight away. You are so clever. Congrats to your friend on her book achievement.
