Neither spring chickens nor doddering old dames, Rebecca Christian and Katherine Fischer have joined pens to write That's Our Story and We're Sticking To It. Accumulated from over forty years of combined writing and publishing experience, this collection of articles and newspaper columns promises to leave 'em laughing—and crying. Here you find a range of topics and tones: “Feng Phooey” questions whether it really matters which way the commode faces; “Fessing Up” celebrates all those things we delight in privately but deny publicly—from moon-walking in the grocery store to harboring a love of Jean Claude Van Damme movies; “If It's the Thought That Counts, Guys, Then Why Don't You Use Your Heads?” warns men to avoid giving Veg-O-Matics, fishing poles, or French maid aprons to women for Christmas; "If I Ran the World” chronicles the word’s greatest ills and how to fix them in two easy steps; “Having It Their Way” recounts a daughter's wedding in the park sans minister as untraditionally traditional; “Noche De Paz” celebrates the life of a Latina relative before dying onboard flight #77 on 9-11; " It's A Jingle Jungle Out There” offers the Top Ten List of Elfen Christmas Tips for surviving the holidays. Whether these slice-of-life articles appear in national venues (Christian Science Monitor, New York Times, and National Public Radio), or regional newspapers and magazines (Telegraph Herald, Des Moines Register, Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel), readers have clamored for years, "When's the book coming out?" At long last, here it is, That’s Our Story and We’re Sticking To It!
