Lia Romeo and Nick Romeo, 11,002 THINGS TO BE MISERABLE ABOUT co-authors: Mr. Media Interview




Bob Andelman Interviews show

Summary: 11,002 Things to be Miserable About compiles all the things in life, big and small, that can ruin your day. Uninspired by the little book, 14,000 Things to Be Happy About, the brother and sister team, Lia and Nick Romeo, started out every day for almost a year by writing a list of bad, sad things to create this antidote. There’s no denying that 14,000 Things to Be Happy About has warmed many a heart and sold a gazillion copies, but it’s probably turned at least as many stomachs with its treacly content. Sometimes you’re just not in a warm, fuzzy, bunny mood. And now more than ever, misery sure loves company… In 11,002 Things to be Miserable About, some of the entries are pretty basic, like rats, wine in a box, conjunctivitis, and running into your ex on your way to the gym, but other entries actually include things like: Dust mites, which make up one third of the weight of a six-year-old pillow. See you can laugh and learn! Author Lia Romeo is an award-winning comic playwright, and her brother Nick Romeo is a fiction writer.Call in and share your misery with them, LIVE: 1-646-595-3135.
