About the Author:
Humorist Celia Rivenbark was born and raised in Duplin County. She started her writing career as a journalist with the Wallace Enterprise and later moved to the features department at the Wilmington Morning Star -- today's StarNews. Celia is the author of a number of humorous essay collections. She lives in Wilmington with her husband and daughter.

About the Book: 
In this always sensible and mildly profane etiquette manual for the modern age Celia Rivenbark addresses real-life quandaries ranging from how to deal with braggy playground moms to wondering if you can have sex in your aunt's bed on vacation to correctly grieving the dearly departed (hint: it doesn't include tattoos or truck decals).  Rude Bitches Make Me Tired will provide answers to all your mannerly questions as Celia discusses the social conundrums of our day and age.
