Dresden

Dresden is tall, LOVES plaid and hates cilantro. She studied theatre at NYU and RADA. (You can tell she is snobby about it because she spells theatRE the correct way.) She worked in the film industry in LA & soon her nondisclosures will expire and she can tell you all about the size of everyone’s penis ego.  She left LA to take care of her Grandmother as she suffered with Alzheimer’s. The internet got her pregnant (true story), her Grandmother died, and she learned about bad times. She’s now a total Todd Parr storyline living with her awesome Mom and super tall toddler in Philly. She blogs at Creating Motherhood and tweets @DresdenPlaid

Laura

Laura Willard is a writer, blogger, and editor who lives in Southern California. She has successfully avoided using her law degree for six years and counting. This is one of her bigger accomplishments in life. Laura is married to an extremely lucky man and is the mom of a three-year-old and four-year-old through international adoption. She doesn’t get enough sleep and it totally shows. She writes for SheKnows, blogs for Pregnancy and Baby, edits for Red Tricycle and copy edits, too. She also keeps a personal blog, A(n) (un)Common Family, where she tricks people into thinking she’s a great mom with stories about and cute pictures of her adorable kids, then accidentally blows it about once a week with the truth. You can also find her on Twitter @AnunCommonMom. Laura firmly believes sarcasm is a language, so she’s totally bilingual.

J-Dub

J-Dub Moxie has a BS in BS, but someone thought it was a good idea to make her responsible for educating adolescents. She does a good impression of an 8th Grade English teacher by day, but by night she’s a gangsta nerd superhero. She wishes she could clone copies of her husband Frank to sell; he is that awesome. Despite Moxie’s best efforts, their four children (ages 6-10) refuse to be corrupted into doing her evil bidding. Moxie is in love with carbohydrates and in hate with writing bios. She blogs at The Smartness and Tweets @JWMoxie. Word.

Unknown Mami

Unknown Mami is the most interesting woman in the world! Her paper bag alone has experienced more than a lesser person’s 30 gallon garbage bag. Her sweat smells like gardenias. She may or may not be prone to exaggeration, that’s for you to decide. She can be found writing at Unknown Mami, an often humorous blog about life and mami-hood; it’s strong enough for a mami, but made for everyone. She has also been known to get her tweet on. Unknown Mami strives hard to be open-minded and encourages you to NEVER judge a woman by her bag.

Erin

Erin Margolin is a bacon-loving Jew and SAHM to twin girls with a third bun in the oven. When she is not overwhelmed by domestic duties, you can find her canoodling with a book and a glass of Kendall-Jackson Chardonnay. If she’s not writing or dreaming about writing, she’s bound to be microwaving chicken nuggets, screaming at her kids or scooping dog poop. Erin hails from New Orleans, but her husband lured her to the land of Oz, Dorothy, & Toto, where she deals with daily withdrawal from pralines, poboys, and drive-through daquiris. Erin is obsessed with plucking her caterpillar eyebrows into submission. She also grapples with residual issues from having a queer dad and getting knocked up after an infertility diagnosis. She loves vampires, carbs, and her bottle of Prozac. You can find her on Twitter: @ErinMargolin & she blogs at Erin Margolin

Deborah

Deborah Cruz, aka Truthful Mommy, is the creator of the magic that is The TRUTH about Motherhood. She is a wife, a writer, and semi-crunchy, work-at-home Ninja Mommy. She lives smack dab in the Midwest with her two beautiful little princesses minus the tiaras (on most days) bring the drama (times two) and her trusty sidekick, her husband, who she affectionately calls the Big Guy. Deborah has a Master’s of Art in Liberal Studies from the University of North Carolina Greensboro. She spends her days loving on her family (while trying not to lose her mind), surviving suburbia (while trying not to lose herself) and shuttling her girls between Catholic school, ballet and play dates (while trying not to misplace her children). When she’s not exposing the truth about motherhood, advocating for sisterhood through motherhood or building up her little girls to know that they can rule the world, she can always be found exhausting her potential and realizing her dreams. While waiting on her children in parking lots and pick up lines, she can always be found on Twitter and Facebook, as her iPhone has now become a fully functional appendage. Above all, Deborah is embracing life with her daughters and the Big Guy; taking on each and every trial, tribulation and celebration on little to no sleep. Stop by the blog to see for yourself what a solid intermingling of Mommy brain and verbal diarrhea can produce. It’s all love.

Julia

Julia Roberts married into the name. In case you didn’t know, (the famous) Julia Roberts will not call your establishment to make her own tire rotation appointment or to argue about her cell phone charges. To make matters worse, this Julia Roberts husband’s name is Julian. They own a marketing firm together. They know. It’s a bit much for them, too. A geneticist’s dream, they produced two cute kids with a rare syndrome that includes a vision disorder and a crazy kidney disease; resulting in weirdly moving eyes and kidney transplants for both at age of 8. She’d like to dispel the myth that they are heroic; they talk about their kids’ poop just like the rest of you mere mortals. She’s a believer in friends (who cook), extended family (who babysit) and an intuitive husband (who brings her diet coke before she even knows she needs one) she’s happily married to, even with her high maintenance kids. Why happily? They have the agreement that the first one who leaves the marriage has to take the kids. Julia speaks to groups on topics about navigating life as a special needs family. She blogs at Kidneys and Eyes and created a social networking site for special needs families, Support for Special Needs with writer/blogger Dawn Friedman. You can find her on twitter as @juliaroberts1.

Heather

Heather Durdil is an organizationally challenged thirty something wife, mother, & photographer living in small town about 25 miles west of Cleveland, Ohio. When not answering questions like “How are you old enough to have a daughter who drives?” and “You really think people want to read about your life in the internet?” she is taking massive amounts of photos of the said daughters and other people or writing at her blog Domestic Extraordinaire, where her tagline reads “I do it all. I never said I do it all well.” She chronicles her life as a SAHM/WAHM and shows all of her pretty, pretty pictures and some of the not so pretty ones too. You can also find her on twitter under the name @DExtraordinaire.

Robin Plemmons

Robin Plemmons is not afraid to talk about the things you might be afraid to talk about. Like nipple hair or farting during sex. She lives & blogs in the wonderfully weird & vibrant mountain town of Asheville, NC where she was voted “Blogger I’d Most Like To Have A Beer With” & “Blogger You’d Most Like To See Naked.” She is an artist by trade & creates greeting cards & paintings that you would only send to your most awesomest friends. She fell in love with a local boy with a dirty mouth, married him & then promptly procreated. Their love child, Ruby, entered the world in 2008 & increased the size of their hearts by a bajillion trillion. After feeling the need to lift her self-imposed filter, Robin has adopted the phrase “Balls To The Wall, Y’all” as her own personal motto & is blogging with reckless abandon at ballstothewallyall.com. She is better at showing than telling, is inspired by poop & pee jokes, & encourages others to let their freak flags fly. You can find her colorful, potty-mouthed art at lemonswithapea.etsy.com and if you like stupid shit, follow her on twitter.

Dara

Dara was born on an airplane over the Atlantic which has resulted in a permanent situation of being neither here nor there. You could say she’s everywhere, like the wind. Or maybe that’s just her breaking wind… Her superpowers include: pretending she means what she says; sleep-deprivation vanquishing through dancing in the kitchen; and vegetable concealing heat ray vision (aka pureeing microwaved vegetables into dishes they don’t belong in). Sometimes she writes stuff. Occasionally she gets paidfor it. And apparently she can make social media make sense. She tweets and titillates and talks about tits.

Megan

Megan Gordon is a professional writer, amateur photographer and intermittent dreamer. You can find her on Buy-Her.com or adding a peaceful moment of beauty to your day with her photo blog. She is still trying to decide what she wants to be when she grows up. If you follow her on Twitter you might be there when she finally figures it out.
