Description
xGina School is for emotionally lost college students; jaded professors tired of giving ignored advice; self-actualizing women who enjoy laughing; self-actualizing men who aren't intimidated by the woman laughing beside them holding a copy of Gina School nervous people waiting in Dentist offices looking for a distraction; fans of Erma Bombeck; fans of Edward Gorey; inquisitive bus riders and MTA ticket holders who can read without experiencing motion sickness or who have Dramamine on-hand; students of life, humor, and love; aspiring students of life, humor, and love who don't practice much beyond hanging Pottery Barn's Live, Laugh, Love sign above their fireplace (an essential reminder without which they irrationally fear blindly pursuing a path of Death, Tears, and Hatred); lovesick self-saboteurs seeking clarity; people trapped in love triangles; people stuck in regular triangles, such as A-Frame houses after earthquakes or confusing pyramidal playground equipment, who would appreciate some light reading while the Fire Department comes; young people baffled by old people; old people baffled by young people; and, quite simply, anyone with an empathetic funny bone.

She now lives with her husband in Storrs, CT. She can be found in the Library of Congress and in the make-up aisle of Walgreen. Feel free to ask her advice about concealer.
John Guillemette is a writer and artist who enjoys hikes, houseplants, and disparaging mankind. He reads monks and drunks; if a monk wrote it, or a drunk wrote it, then he's probably read it. His satire has appeared in Little Old Lady Comedy, and his stories have been published in The Wild Word, Book of Matches, and Long River Review, where he received the Edwin Way Teale Award for nature writing. He lives in New Haven, CT.
