Quotes by Kate Hopper (?)

“When you say you鈥檙e writing about 鈥渕otherhood鈥� some people assume that the story鈥攊f indeed there is any story at all鈥攚ill consist only of sleepless nights, diaper changes, nursing debacles, and tantruming toddlers. They assume if they opened your book they would be sucked into the minutiae of daily life with children.”

“Motherhood is exactly the kind of 鈥渟pecial circumstance鈥� that lends itself to memoir. It is a time of transition and sometimes a period of intense identity struggle: Who am I if I spend all day shirtless, trying to nurse a colicky baby? What happened to my former life, my former self? How do I balance my own needs with those of my family? I am drawn to all kinds of motherhood memoirs because I am interested in the different ways that women process the challenges and joys of motherhood, and how they write about life in general through their mother eyes.”
