In this collection of stories drawn from the author’s own experiences with motherhood, MOMMIES WHO DRINK explores the common bond that either unites women in friendship or polarizes them in wildly opposing camps. Every Friday, Brett and a group of her closest friends meet at a local bar. As an actress in Hollywood, Paesel lives a life that is at once unusual – She once appeared naked in an episode of HBO’s Six Feet Under – yet, like any parent, deeply ordinary. Here, in a voice that’s as incisive and poignant as the very best in women’s fiction, she addresses the issues she and her friends face as they brave the new world of motherhood – where the secret question on their minds at playground is “What time of the day is too early to start drinking?”

MOMMIES WHO DRINK is also in development as a television series with HBO Independent Productions and "Sex & the City" Executive Producer Jenny Bicks.

So far, the book will also appear in British, Dutch, German, and Audio versions.
