註釋How to Screw Up Your Marriage: Do-Over Tips for First-Time Failures 2nd Place, 2012 Houston Writers Guild Narrative Nonfiction Manuscript Contest Let's face it. People keep getting married. Yet over 40% of first marriages end in divorce and up to 67% of second do, too, with statistics becoming predictably more dismal as the number of trips to the altar rack up. It seems like, for many of us, the longing to be half of a couple so in love they make other people want to puke is too strong to ignore. The problem is, we've all grown up to expect that fairytale endings happen by accident, that if we wish upon a star, or let down our golden hair, then, blammo, we'll get our happily ever after. In other words, we're lazy and feel entitled to have the one thing we want most in the world—the one thing we should work hardest to create and nurture—without doing squat to make our dreams reality. We fall in love, we marry, we pout, we nag, we sulk, and we sabotage. How to Screw Up Your Marriage interrupts the pity party with a no-nonsense formula for couplehood success, written by a human relations expert who is herself in a wonderfully nauseating marriage with a passel of his and hers kids. “An engaging, laugh-out-loud book. Pamela captures the essence of marriage and adds her own funny experiences to create a book that makes you want to be part of a gag-me couple! A must for those getting ready to marry.” Nan C. Loyd, Author of The Tango Element and creator of The Little Black Dress Diaries “Witty and descriptive, with a nice mix of action and introspection. Excellent examples and professional experience brought to bear on a personal level.” Houston Writers Guild “An easy, tear-filled (both hysterical and emotional) read that addresses the issues we all face in a relationship.” Rene Riedlinger SkipJackPublishing.com
