CHANNILLO
Hamster Stew and Other Stories
By Grace Tierney

Series Description:

Hamster Stew is a diary-style comedy serial about the adventures of an Irish mom, Trish McTaggart, struggling with her teenage son, a scary ten year old daughter, and an out of control life which lurches from disaster to chaos. All she wants is a part-time job, more passion with her Scottish husband, and a hands-off mother-in-law but life, and her daughter, are conspiring against her dreams.

Perhaps the lessons her friend is giving her in "how to say no" will help?

Grace Tierney (www.gracetierney.com) is a columnist, author, and blogger writing in rural Ireland who collects stories of parenting disasters. She is the Ireland North East organiser for National Novel Writing Month (www.NaNoWriMo.org) and enjoys the challenge of writing a comedy or historic fiction novel each November.

Acknowledgements:

Many thanks, as always, to Brendan, Daniel, and Eleanor. Don't worry, you're nothing like Trish's family.

I'm lucky enough to volunteer as a writing mentor on National Novel Writing Month each November and this series was begun during Camp NaNoWriMo July 2017. If you've ever wanted to write a story - it's a great place to start.
