We’re sorry to inform you that . . . YOUR FORTIES ARE OVER

  • “We’re sorry to inform you that . . . YOUR FORTIES ARE OVER” is a humorous and slightly irreverent look at turning 50 . . . and 51, 55, and OMG, even 59! Since one entire chapter is devoted to menopause, hot flashes, and brain fog, its readership will likely be female (ya think?!). However, since it makes a great gift, guys can purchase it for a special woman in their life. 


    The book opens with “Welcome to your 50s, please pass the wine and a chiropractic and Botox referral. Thank you.” From necks that are not benefiting from gravity to – hold on doc, what do you mean I need a colonoscopy? – this book covers all the indignities that come with losing one’s youth (alas) and being solidly middle-aged. That half-century thing is quite a milestone - and it has the potential for female bonding the likes of which you’ve not seen since your twenties.  


    Reviewers love the book: “Renee Lonner has written the book I needed years ago. Using her unique sense of humor and brilliant insights, Renee pulls no punches as she puts the aging process into perspective.” (Carmen Berry, NYT bestselling author of more than 30 books, including Girlfriends.) 


    “This book is a hilarious and heartfelt guide to surviving the wild ride of midlife with grace, humor, and a dash of irreverence. Written with wit that rivals Nora Ephron . . .” (Liz Dubleman, producer and director, two-time Emmy award-winner; contributor and co-editor of “What Was I Thinking? 58 Bad Boyfriend Stories.”) 


    Teri Rizvi, Director of The Erma Bombeck Writers’ Workshop whose mission is to keep Erma’s work and indomitable spirit alive and to provide support for today’s humorists, says “Your Forties Are Over aces the laugh-out-loud test.”

If You Give A Man A Tesla: A Parody

  •  "If You Give a Man a Tesla: A Parody" is a humorous take on the Tesla craze, this meeting of gender and  culture that has swept the country. Part parody, part  satire, totally tongue-in-cheek humor with brilliant artwork. DEFINITELY  for grown-ups, NOT children. Looks at how men's lifelong preoccupation  with cars that go Vroom has been replaced by a fascination with cars  that are silent (but are genius like their owners).

    Totally laugh-out-loud worthy.


     "A brilliant  take on the modern man-brain! Such a smart, witty and fun book with  amazing illustrations. It's a great gift and an even better conversation  starter. Bravo!" (Amazon review). "This should be included with the  Tesla's owner's manual! I read it through twice and then a 3rd time  because of the fantastic illustrations!" (Amazon review).
