Known for her sharp wit and warm heart, award-winning singer-songwriter Sally Fingerett is a founding member of the musical comedy theatre group The Four B**chin’ Babes. As a performer Sally has appeared on over seven hundred stages. As a composer, her song “Home Is Where the Heart Is” has been recorded by legends Peter, Paul, and Mary. Now Sally has written down the stories behind her best-loved songs from the stage and recordings. In these hilarious and endearing stories and essays, she celebrates her own personal goofs and flaws: having married, had a baby, divorced, trolled JDate, remarried, blended three teenagers into one family while feeling that she’s really just a nine-year-old with a credit line. This designated daughter wanted only to fit in, be loved, do the right thing and — oops, almost forgot have a career. Isn’t this what women do?
