The Migraine Mafia
Maia Sepp
4.5 Stars (55 Reviews)
Genre: Medical | Humor & Satire

On paper, Viive McBroom lives the perfect life–a key player in a fast-paced, technical field, one promotion away from real success–but that’s only if you ignore one little problem. Sandwiched between one migraine and the next, Viive’s life is like those choose-your-own-adventure books you read as a kid, only less fun and with a lot more drugs. Faced with frustration from her loved ones and the dark machinations of a new coworker, Viive feels herself getting pulled under by guilt, apologies, and workplace shenanigans. But then she meets the Migraine Mafia, a quirky, vibrant support group, and her fragile camouflage begins to crumble. She discovers that a room full of strangers just might be able to change the way she views her illness–and realizes that if she doesn’t learn to ask for help, her health isn’t the only thing she stands to lose. Sometimes painful, frequently hilarious, always entertaining, “The Migraine Mafia” is the story of one woman’s life-altering quest to thrive in the face of chronic illness.

An Etiquette Guide to the End Times: (An End Times Novella)
Maia Sepp
4.4 Stars (24 Reviews)
Genre: Humor & Satire | Science Fiction

There aren’t any zombies (yet), but the world is still at the brink of destruction: It’s 2028 and global warming has led to rising oceans, crazy weather, and resource scarcity. On top of that, someone just turned the Internet off. Seeing as how it’s humanity’s last chance to turn things around manners are, understandably, a bit frayed. Bookish etiquette buff Olive O’Malley is busy microfarming her urban property and minding her own business (and her chickens) when the government comes calling. Their goal is to push the populace towards carbon-neutrality while keeping kvetching to a minimum, and they come with a proposal: transition Olive’s popular etiquette column to a radio show for the masses, and they’ll help Olive find her grandfather, who’s gone missing. Olive doesn’t trust the hipster government officials who try to bribe her with delicious-but-probably-a-little-evil chocolate pastries, and declines their offer. (Politely, of course.) But they won’t take no for an answer, and soon Olive is knee-deep in turmoil, eco-terrorism, and missing chickens. Now she has to untangle herself from their demands and figure out how to make sure her family (and her poultry) are safe before it’s too late.

But California girl Camilla Brightly is an expat just trying to make a buck, working for an offbeat PR firm. Their most recent project? Everyone on staff has to get their “domestic helpmates”–anything from dishwashers to disco balls–networked via a new client’s “smart” home automation system. Camille doesn’t want Big Brother knowing that the only thing in her freezer is the makings for a vodka smoothie, but that’s not the worst of her problems.

With the help of an adorably nerdy co-worker and his polyamorous cousin, Camilla has to try to untangle herself from her less-than-harmonious home, foil a blackmailer, and face down an ecological disaster that might change life as she knows it forever. “Wake”–a prequel to “An Etiquette Guide to the End Times”–is a novel of climate change, unruly appliances, and finding a place to belong.

On sale for a limited time! Lucy Tuttle is a workaholic financial planner whose biggest worry is how to line up the sticky notes on her desk just so, but when her free-spirited, vivacious aunt dies in a car accident halfway across the world, Lucy’s carefully ordered life spins out of control. With her last family member gone, the big 3-0 approaching, domestication closing in, and her faltering biological clock a never-ending reminder of the time she isn’t spending building a family, Lucy tries to make a home for herself and her eco-activist boyfriend in the fixer-upper she’s inherited. But as she struggles to settle into a life of cohabitation, organic lentils and sock thievery, she starts to wonder how she ended up there–and when she’ll feel alive again. As she works through her grief and tries to find somewhere to belong, Lucy begins to understand that sometimes, realizing one dream might mean giving up another. Poignant, quirky, and humorous, The Sock Wars is a contemporary women’s fiction story from author Maia Sepp that reminds us there’s only one thing harder than living up to other people’s expectations: facing your own.
